Lord Peter Mandelson is gay, and is one of the most prevalent names in the Epstein files. There's indications Epstein himself swung that way, posts in which he mentions his interests. Then the most common name mentioned in the files, Trump, is associated with committing fellatio on HRC's husband, Bubba, by Mark Epstein inquiring if his brother Jeffrey had the pics.

I don't think being gay protected anyone from being blackmailed by Mossad after being compromised by Epstein in delecto flagrante.
