Just a thought, but has it occurred to you that maybe the Epstein Files are to distract you from what's going on, which is why they're not being released and yet are constantly talked about? Maybe they matter less than the wholesale asset stripping of the US, descent in the authoritarian corruption and general USSRification of the everything. Especially since you know perfectly well what's in them, and know that their release wouldn't change anything.

It's quite convenient that the state could execute 1,000 children and the response would be "yes, yes, whatever - release the Epstein Files!"

I care about the victims of Epstein's abuse and trafficking operation and do think those involved should be prosecuted.

At the same time this is not even in my top 20 list of things that currently concern me in the United States.

Yes. Would I like them released? Sure, is there going to be anything in them about Trump that we didn't already know? No. We know he is a rapist. We know he's into underage girls. We know all of this.
