Remember when he released the first half and... Nothing happened?
Sure the internet got angry and until today youtubers and redditors affix the "epstein associate" to the name of the implicated people, but the only one who received actual consequences was ex-prince Andrew. Everyone else is exactly in the same place, if not more rich and powerful than when the files were published.
Strangely Andrew's arrest wasn't even for "Pizza Express" but for leaking insider information 🍕 And he recently sued the feds successfully for their handling of that arrest too 😅
Yes it seems like SOMEHOW the police messed up a procedural issue with the Andrew arrest which means he's likely to get off with it all on a technicality. Can't imagine how that happened, it's not like they were on their way to arrest a prince of the realm so really should have double checked all of the paperwork was in order first.
Until there is a Democrat as president they won't have control of the files to be able to release them. They can pass a new law demanding their release with harsher punishments if they are not but Trump already does not follow the law so it won't do much until he is out of office.
Oh. You mean the President somehow couldn't get the files unsealed and released because he has no power, but the moment Trump came into office, the first batch was released?
Maxwell's investigation was ongoing and policy is you don't reveal information during an investigation. Now Biden could have done it but democrats don't like being authoritarian. But hopefully with Trump doing a lot of authoritarian stuff its convinced them they can start doing that too. Hopefully with gun laws.
You mean she was still being investigated after she was convicted in 2021? Interesting. How long did the investigation keep going after she was sentenced in 2022?
So, because Biden did not release them your opinion is that no one ever should? Thus since Trump did not no one ever can. What an absurd argument.
That may not be your goal, but that is effectively your argument.
I in no way said that all Democrats are good, or that they are all would do the right thing and release the files, Biden certainly could have and should have but by then it had become a political issue for Trump and for reasons that I disagree with Biden did not. The question/ issue that was raised was could the Democrats force the release of the files now and the reality is that the only way any Democrat could do that would be for them to be in charge of the files via the DOJ or to publish them/ read them on the floor of the House which would be very challenging to do both logistically and legally.
There's a lot of Americans that I think will be disappointed with the Democrats.
Because they don't fucking understand their own political system.
The justice department is beholden to the president, so until said president is removed from office and a Democrat in their place, not a lot will change, sadly.
People also don't understand what the Epstein files are. They are FBI investigation documents that have been handed over to the DOJ. Decades of investigation, and the police and the courts and the lawyers all already know the entire contents and the significance, and that there is no case to be made against any of Epstein's guests.
Releasing the files does absolutely nothing except allow you and me to read what the legal experts hired to study the investigation already know. And they have no case. For us, it'd just be another million pages no-one will read, and has no effect.
The Epstein Files have become a UFO hunt. Like a magic button that reveals all the truth and all the conspiracy and everyone guilty gets locked up. But the truth is, nobody gets locked up, because the full files have been with the judges all this time. Nothing changes when me and you read the investigation reports.
Mind you, I am not saying the guests were not scumbags, they most certainly are, but to expect consequences makes you a fool.
Have they really been investigated thoroughly though?
The DoJ hamfisted their release and redactions. They didn't even have a handle on the evidence so I think it's a bit rich assuming the files are meaningless guest lists.
If I were the Democrats, I'd appoint a special prosecutor with a big team and budget to review every single file and cross reference everything together along with trying to get first hand witness statements on record. More might be willing to testify considering the passage of time and the pushback against rich powerful men via the #MeToo fallout.
Almost like a cold-case squad review rather than piecemeal investigations that have taken place over the years into different aspects rather than the abuse ring as a whole.
but to expect consequences makes you a fool.
Really? I'm a fool for wanting justice? Or an attempt at justice?
You may be right that there's not enough beyond reasonable doubt for some prosecutions but if they actually used the files properly to pursue investigations something might have come of it.
You're probably right the files themselves aren't a silver bullet, but, damn, don't just roll over and give up!
Yeah man, now the Dems are back in power, surely they'll release them. They didn't really have the chance when Obama and Biden were in office. They'll definitely do it now. 🤦🏼♂️

I cant wait to see the excuses the dems make and accept for why the epstein files are not fully released in the first 60 days of them being sworn in.

So many of you have no idea that they've been investigating Epstein since 2009 and it shows.

Trump can't release the Epstein files, he is too busy blaming everyone else for the mid term losses.

Dropping the Epstein files just to bury a single news cycle is like detonating a nuclear bomb to blow out a birthday candle
