Any educated guess will include Pam's thorough knowledge of Diddling Donny's depravity and her likely (at least indirectly) participation in Diddling Donny's diseased behavior. Notice that Princess Ivanka's name shows up as an attendant in some of the exploitation crimes of teen-aged girls and younger.

Got any more information, link when and where this appearance occurred, a link, etc.? I'd like to dig into this.

I gotta say, all of this evidence of Ivanka's involvement lends a lot of credence to all the suspicions about Trump's treatment of her. If she and her brothers were groomed into participating in his and Epstein’s nefarious activities, he's even worse than I imagined, which is saying a hell of a lot.

I hope this whole thing gets blown wide open very soon. Cracks are appearing all over the place. I feel like the dam could break any time.

I am wondering why the highlighted complaints in the OP have not been reported in the media. Journalists have been combing the files for info. Why haven't any of them mentioned those excerpts from the files?

I am not defending Trump. His general behavior and attitude toward women make it look possible that he was part of the sex crimes, especially with such specific details as in the OP. But the only possible mention of them that I've heard came from Trump spokespersons who gave no specifics and only said that there are slanderous accusations about Trump in the files that were lies not worth investigating.

Yet no media have specifically referred to them that I know of. Are they concerned about getting into expensive litigation if they speak about these allegations?

Also, since so many of the files have redactions, and there are still files not released, how did these allegations of such horrendous behavior get made public? Wouldn't Trump want them excluded from the release?

First the allegations need to be investigated and corroberated. Ideally, one or more credible witnesses would speak up. But that is a very dangerous thing for someone to do, given the kinds of people involved.

Still, an investigation of these allegations must be made. We need to know as much as we can find out. Even the investigator would need high level protection.

Mon Feb 23, 2026, 02:54 AM

in a court of law.

I am saying that the allegations in the OP must be corroborated in order to know that they are real and true before taking any action. Anybody can make any claim about anyone. The allegations in the OP were called in to a tip line. Were they investigated at the time? If so, what were the results? If not, they should be investigated now. Even if they were investigated at the time, they should be looked into again now to be sure that any previous investigation was valid.

Personally, I am inclined to believe that the allegations are true based on Trump's general behavior and attitudes regarding women and girls. But an inclination to believe is not enough.

To impeach him, the House would by have to investigate in order to know what charges to make. Then the Senate would have to hold a trial in order to convict or exonerate him. That's how our system works.

... a trimmed down version of a more extensive document that has two additional columns which indicate the follow up and results for each complaint.

Link to that document and the email chain containing both is here: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100221039232#post48

It looks like the original source document was edited with the purpose of listing "prominent names". The prominent names column replaced the follow up and results columns.

It seems like the "prominent names" version is getting more circulation than the "follow up and results" version. Probably because the follow ups and results do not support the desired CT narrative.

.... the same complaints.

https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/epstein-file-trump-clinton-alexander-tip-sheet.pdf

Both this document and the document in the OP document are contained in a long email chain with subject "NTOC names" The emails seem related to an investigation into the Alexander Brothers. It was sent to an FBI special agent in the human trafficking and child exploitation division.

The big difference between what was posted and this version - it actually contains notations on the follow up actions and results.

For instance, the item in the OP with the arrow pointing to it, about alleged "calendar girl parties" at Mar a Lago, has this annotation: No contact information provided. No DOB. (Note that a DOB would have been relevant since the complainant claimed to have been 13 at the time.)

This shows that the FBI was actively following up on these complaints to the extent possible, and that in many cases, including the one highlighted, they were anonymous and no follow up was possible.

Some of them had more interesting results, like the one above the high lighted one that references being taken to Epstein's island:

"no contact made - previous TIPS indicated Thomas had called in and said she had chemically induced amnesia and struggled with knowing what was a dream and reality. "

Understanding the difference between dreams (or nightmares) and reality seems to be a pervasive problem with these reports.
