A week of online chaos erupted when an X account claiming to be Jeffrey Epstein’s last girlfriend resurfaced with sensational posts insisting Epstein was “innocent” and promising explosive revelations. The sudden activity — including deleted histories, dramatic proclamations, and calls for donations — set off a feeding frenzy among conspiracy seekers and cable pundits who leap at anything that promises to crack open the swamp.
The woman reportedly at the center of the storm, Karyna Shuliak, has publicly denied any connection to the account and told reporters she has no social media presence and did not authorize the posts. That straightforward denial should be the end of the story for serious journalists, but in our media environment silence is treated like guilt and anonymous grifters are treated like whistleblowers.
Sharp red flags proliferated around the account: it used a photo previously released by prosecutors, scrubbed older posts to manufacture a false history, and pushed cryptocurrency links that smelled like a classic online con. When allegations mix with solicitation, taxpayers and patriots should be suspicious — the Epstein saga has always attracted hustlers eager to monetize outrage.
The reaction on social platforms was immediate and ridiculous, with fringe hosts clamoring for interviews and even public figures reportedly following the account, fueling more speculation than facts. The rush to amplify anonymous claims without verification shows how social media now functions as a rumor mill, not a marketplace of truth.
This circus is playing out just as the Justice Department’s slow drip of Epstein documents has sent the political class into meltdown, with every batch mined for names and insinuations. The raw, unvetted nature of some releases has already been exploited by opportunists and partisan media to spin narratives long before facts are established, which ought to make every American demand better standards from our institutions.
Conservatives who care about law, order, and accountability should welcome transparency, not ransom it to grifters or let it become fodder for left-wing character assassination. That means vetting claims, ignoring anonymous donation pitches, and holding both the deep-pocketed elites and the journalists who enable them to account for what they knew and when.
Patriots who watched the Epstein story from the sidelines have every right to be angry — angry at the billionaires who trafficked influence and angry at a media class that profits off chaos. Stay skeptical, demand records, and insist that any real revelations be accompanied by verifiable evidence and due process, not crypto wallets and anonymous theater.
