It wasn’t all that long ago that Republicans were pretending they wanted the Epstein files released. Now it’s Democrats who are pretending that they want the Epstein files released.
The reality is that no one wants the Epstein files released. The Dems last of all. Promises to release the Epstein files are sucker bait, because there’s nothing to release. Anyone who starts out promising to release them or the JFK/UFO files eventually ends up having to explain why there’s nothing there.
I was writing about the Epstein case long before many of the current grifters and to state the obvious, there are no files of any significance to release. Anything truly damning is as gone as Hillary’s real emails. Only a crackhead like Hunter Biden would just dump laptops full of damning evidence where anyone could get at it. And if those hard drives had been purely in the province of the FBI, they would have wiped them the way they wiped Hillary’s drives after they had ‘finished’ their investigation.
Or the records of Epstein’s visitor logs during his first term in ‘prison’.
It’s amazing to me that people believe the government is capable of the worst kinds of crimes and yet carefully keeps damning evidence on itself just waiting for the right bureaucrat or appointee to release it. The Communists and Nazis did that kind of thing because they had absolute power and were convinced that they were going to rule the world. They didn’t think in terms of ‘cover-ups’ until much later when they realized they weren’t going to win. Government employees covering up things for powerful people well… cover them up. Sometimes clumsily, like Sandy Berger stuffing documents about Clinton’s Bin Laden policy in his socks. But there is no collection of videos of powerful people assaulting underage girls waiting to be released. If such videos still exist, then you can bet they’ve been winnowed down to protect the particularly influential. And by now everyone ought to know that an upper level Bureau man when confronted with politically explosive stuff like this will find a reason to erase it.
Calls to release the Epstein files will just lead to the release of more useless documents. Everyone in politics knows it. They’re playing a game and lying to you.
As they always do.
I learned decades ago that it’s foolishly naive to trust anything the government says. The government has plenty to hide and the motivation to deceive and lie to the American people with alacrity.
Nobody wants to hear about Jeffrey Epstain. He’s yesterday’s news. Dead, gone and not missed. It’s like talking about the Titanic. Already been there, already done that.
I have always been fascinated by the Titanic. And I want full sunshine on Epstein’s connections to government muckety mucks.
From the start, Bondi could have said flatly that the evidence, if any ever existed, was missing. Instead, this was dragged out, giving an opening to various leeches on society to pull us into thir bizarro world,
Agree. Bondi’s behavior fueled and stoked this nonsense, but what recourse would there be? Go out and say as much? I don’t think so. Trump came out today with strong words for people latching onto this story (with what I view as manufacturered concern) and putting things into perspective, going so far as to reject support from those who continue to promulgate it. Indeed.
No. It was worse. She said it was on her desk. She was either misinformed or she lied. Both are unacceptable. If she was misinformed, she should have come out with that and explained why she was misinformed and fired the person who misinformed her. If she lied, she should be fired.
Thanks for weighing in on this, Daniel.
A issue like this is when lots of people jump to conclusions. Seems like half the MAGA army is suddenly anti-Trump. They don’t understand that everything the left wants is wrong..
“half the MAGA army is suddenly anti-Trump” – are you a pollster? Do I trust polls anyway?
People who comment during happy hour is sign of the bourgeoisie vox populi?
Your getting carried away with yourself. I wrote “seems like”. And it does.
“Do I trust polls anyway?” Who cares.
Happy Hour? Have another drink.
It’s fair to say that that half of the MAGA army are stuck on stupid. Epstein’s alleged dirty deeds occurred in the early 2000s. Epstein himself was dealt a measure of cosmic justice 6 years ago (he died in a jail cell.)
The Epstein voyeurs need to get their minds out of the gutter and get over it already. The man is dead! Move on!
Sorry, I am naive. Will anyone explain why the influential, the wealthy, public figures, politicians, judges, and other luminaries commit crimes (against minors) and think it will not be used as blackmail? Perhaps there’s a defect on the Y chromosome. And on the X too. How stupid can they get?
Lucky for them, someone in government has pressed “delete.”
That’s not fair, of course, to the victims and to the rest of us.
But it saved us some really ugly views.
And his connections to influential people in our government should be exposed – however few or many and without regard to position. Epstein was a pedophile – a proclivity that cannot be cured. Victor Davis Hanson opined that Epstein’s talent lay primarily in blackmail. That is an excellent extrapolation from the information in Epstein’s Wikipedia entry and would protect his pedophilia by ensuring those complicit or implicated by association would suffer if Epstein were exposed.
I also wonder if there was any truth to Epstein’s own assertions that he had intelligence connections – maybe with foreign governments. He certainly led a life that would make for excellent spook work.
I am not ready to be told enough already. Full sunlight.
Not one person has come forward claiming to have been blackmailed by Epstein. If that was happening people would not have continued to associate with him.
Currently Epstein Island is closed, correct? No child or minor is being molested and raped there anymore?
I would like to see the children or minors who were purportedly raped or molested on Epstein Isle to name names if they are adults now – of course their lives might be in peril. From Bill Gates to Bill Clinton – using and discarding young people after their sexual escapades or a new child or minor shows up can be dangerous to victims coming forward. At least one young lady committed suicide over it.
Any actual logs and list would be quagmire. We surely know there will innocent people on there that accepted an invitation to an exotic island. I know myself I have been invited to a party or 2 in my life by acquaintances that I do not know very well and after awhile observing what is going on I am like “I have to leave, now!”
1, The most suspicious aspect was the ‘suicide’
2. If there was evidence, it has been destroyed. If it pointed at Trump, Biden would have used it politically.
3. I think that there are pages with accusations made against people with no evidence to support it. In other words, investigations reached a dead end.
If unfounded accusations were released, that would occupy the country for months. Remember Cavanaugh?
That was what struck me, reading some letters from German officials written around 1943 or so, about art treasures they had confiscated in France, I think it was. They showed no consciousness that they might lose the war, they seemed completely oblivious to the possibility. To speculate, it might be due to the controlled press.
(My neighbor was a US Army intelligence officer in charge of recovering stolen art treasures after the war, I got to read some of the letters he had kept.)
Thank you for writing this. I’ve been telling everyone but they are like hysterical schoolgirls, unable to think rationally. Is Bongino going to go with a SWAT team and break down the doors of Buckingham Palace and start dragging royals out? Bill Gates net worth is several times the size of the entire DOJ budget. Having your name on a list is not a crime. The victims already got a huge payout. Does anyone really think there is HD video of any of these guys, clearly identifiable, with a clearly underage girl? Would Tucker’s claim that Epstein was a Mossad agent stand up to cross examination? Look at what the Mossad just did to Hezbollah and the IRG, do you think they don’t know how to cover their tracks? Is the head of the Mossad just going to come to America and truthfully spill his guts about everything they do give me a break. Epstein is about number 843 of the list of things I’m concerned about.
