They Promised the List — Now They Pretend We Made It Up

🕯️ They Promised the List — Now They Pretend We Made It Up

Gaslighting the Public: Epstein, Trump, and the Disappearing Truth

By Tina Winterlik aka Zipolita

I remember.
We all do.
They said there was a list.
They said they had it.
They said it would bring the truth to light.

The Epstein client list was supposed to reveal the powerful people who abused, exploited, and controlled.
Trump’s people promised us that truth. They told us to trust them.
“We’re draining the swamp,” they said.
“We’re exposing the elite.”

Now?
They tell us:

“There was no list.”
“No blackmail. No proof. Epstein killed himself.”

They are trying to erase what they said.
They are trying to erase what we remember.

This is gaslighting.
This is how they manipulate us—by breaking the truth into pieces and blaming us for seeing the cracks.

What Is Gaslighting?

Gaslighting is when someone:

• Tells you something
• Later denies it
• Makes you feel like you're wrong or crazy for remembering it

It's psychological abuse.
It's how power protects itself.
And it’s Trump’s modus operandi.

They Used the List

They used the idea of the list to:

• Stir outrage
• Build loyalty
• Distract from their own secrets
• Attack enemies while protecting friends

Now that it’s inconvenient, they say:

“It never existed.”

It’s the same old trick:

• Say what people want to hear
• Ride the wave
• Then change the story and blame the people for believing it

But We Remember

We remember the names.
We remember the flight logs.
We remember the victims.
We remember the fear, the silence, the cover-ups.

We remember Bernie Sanders dropping out.
We remember the strange deaths.
We remember the broken promises.

And we remember who said they’d give us justice—and gave us gaslight instead.

Reflection Questions:

1. How does it feel when powerful people deny something you know is true?
2. Have you ever experienced gaslighting in your own life—from a person or system?
3. Why do you think the idea of the “list” was so powerful—and why did they walk it back?
4. Who benefits when the truth becomes blurred?
