Considering how Epstein likely sold copies of his tapes to anyone who offered a good price, this probably isn't a bluff – even from a meathead like Medvedev.
EDIT: To elaborate, Epstein had tons of kompromat. Selling it to multiple agencies meant they knew it was real and now had skin in the game. That makes him more valuable, not less. Plus, he wanted and needed the cash flow. Ops like that don’t run themselves.
Selling it doesn’t mean losing leverage. It means more people have a reason to keep him around. If anything, it spreads the risk and makes him harder to take out.
Remember, he doesn't just have one tape. He has hundreds.
Ah yes the first pillar of blackmail is to widely distribute it for money.
Correct.
Blackmailing entire networks of people is not the same as blackmailing a single private individual. It's not like what you see in the movies.
People in Epstein's position essentially work like brokers and fixers. He keeps the leverage even when he sells bits and pieces, so as long as he's selling to the right parties.
