Must’ve finished scrubbing his name from them.
Edit: Maybe it’s a “I’d release them if I could, but the investigations prevent me” situation.
The fix is in then.
I am surprised Epstein didn’t have a dead man’s switch on his files. I suppose the Mossad or Putin has a copy and is retaining it for continued leverage. I wonder if someone will expose the falsifications.
Mossad/Putin but not the fucking CIA? The guy lived in and operated out of the US. His shenanigans could hardly have been unknown to domestic intelligence agencies.
CIA is compromised though. Doesn’t matter if they have the goods because they are controlled by cronies.
Epstein bragged about working with the Mossad.
I’m sure he did work with Mossad. That doesn’t mean he didn’t also work with the CIA. I’m not sure what you mean by “compromised” either. The CIA has been evil and rogue from the start.
My own theory on the flip-flop back to his original stance:
-
The DOJ/FBI have finished sanitizing the entire document to clear Trump and Republican loyalists, so releasing it now will only help them.
-
The worst of the damning information (about Trump knowing about the girls and not stopping it) has already been made public so there’s no point in hiding it anymore. Republicans have already spun the narrative as “not that bad” and Trump survived, so why not win some brownie points and release the official document in it’s entirety?
I can’t see any other reason for why he suddenly wants them to go public again. Trump only ever does things that serve his own self interests, so him blocking it for so long was beneficial to him in some way, and now continuing to block it doesn’t benefit him.
Or someone finally explained that the discharge petition only allows for unclassified releases… Meaning Bondi can decide what should be released or not.
Remind me what “the document” is, again? There have been thousands released this week.
Option 3 I think is most likely.
DOJ just started new investigations into Clinton, JP Morgan, and others at Trumps behest. Once vote happens to release files DOJ says “Oops no can do with an ongoing investigation.” Repubs look like they care and nothong goes public.
Its an easy win win for them
-
Whatever they’ll release, it won’t be the original files.
So what exactly is preventing them from releasing not just redacted but heavily edited “Epstein files” where they removed any hint of Trump and added a few additional democrat names for good measure? They’ve certainly had enough time to create something like that.
The discharge petition itself contains the word “unclassified” which means all Bondi has to do is classify anything with Trump and friends names before the release.
My biggest worry is what if they release doctored documents
To play the devil’s advocate, it’s certainly possible Trump publicly supports the House voting to release the original documents because he either 1) has ironclad assurance that it’ll die in the Senate, or 2) will just pocket veto the bill. There was substantial political downside to them opposing their release, and many many ways for them to kill this whole thing in the future.
Trump doesn’t want the files released, but their Legislative Affairs and Communications Director finally woke up to a strategy that wasn’t political suicide.
Someone just told him they finished destroying the evidence that implicates him.
I think it’s more a case of him thinking that he’ll just veto it anyway.
Because now they’re going to try and claim they “can’t due to an ongoing investigation”. This will be like pulling teeth.
His cult will believe it.
Edit: Maybe it’s a “I’d release them if I could, but the investigations prevent me” situation.
That, or a “I know they don’t have the votes in the Senate, so it’s moot” situation.
Alright we are probably going to get two versions of the Epstein files the one edited by trump that will probably be released first and the real one that will be released later when Trump is dead or out of office in some way
I’m hoping the second one is released when the people named in the files released by the government go, “Oh no, we’re not going down in this alone,” and put out their emergency backups.
Just like releasing his tax returns because “they were in an audit”
‘DOJ still investigating the Dem names in the files…, sorry lol!’
Literally what the fuck is his plan here, something tells me that they will just scrub his name or something.
DOJ is going to say they can’t because there’s now an active investigation
I’m thinking they will have some brogrammer just as arrogant and as fucking stupid and Dunning-Kruger as “Big Balls”, but who claims they “do computer gud” does something stupid like trying to do a search/replace on certain words, but ends up missing key information and also leaves obvious traces of the ratfuckery that others point out in like 3.8 seconds.
So, either he just realized how guilty he’s been making himself look… or, he’s playing 4D chess with us, and just broke out the “reverse psychology” card. (wink, wink…nudge, nudge)
Well, Megan Kelly just tried to sell that not all pedophilia is bad. So, it’s probably a gas-lighting plan. It’ll probably work too. His base are all gullible fools.
And pedophiles too. Don’t forget his entire base are pedophiles, even if only by proxy.
Both valid theories I’d say.
