US Election & Presidency

No matter what the issue or cause.
No matter how profound and laden with powerless and vulnerable victims.
No matter what the extent of heartache and pining for peace or justice as regards any issue whatsoever.

Trump only cares about one thing.

Himself!!

So it goes through on a show of hands but then a recorded vote is requested. Seems reasonable.

It's declared a 15 minute vote and the count is done by electronic device. 15 minutes pass, the clock hits zero yet votes are still coming in with one Dem "nay" vote appearing, then disappearing, then appearing again for the Republicans.

Makes our Parliament look organised

I'm just glad we do it more straightforward than they do sometimes, I imagine how one sided it must be in Russia. (must be Putin's vote only) - How big is the file?

Whether he took part or not (his history indicates he likely did), he was good friends with Epstein, the amount of time together and what their circle of friends seem to be like, yeah, bullshit. If Trump isn't mentioned in the files in a way that makes him look guilty, then they've been doctored/modified so he can use it against his 'enemies', such as Clinton, and whoever the fuck else is listed. No way is he not implicated in some way, I call bullshit if he gets away with this.

Redacted, redacted, missing page, redacted, missing page, redacted, just watch, the only person that'll get what they want is Trump, not the victims

Oh and remember, if Trump wanted them to be released, he could have by executive order as far as I'm aware, bypassing all the delay tactics they've been using.

Then he should quit the bullshit delaying tactics, and sign them off on executive order and tell the American people - "You and you alone shall be the judge, jury, and executioner of whether I'm guilty or not."

You're talking about Trump here, the man has no conscience, the only reason he changed his tune was because he was gonna lose the vote.
If he cared what the American people thought of him, he wouldn't do or say the stuff he does, he genuinely only cares about himself, above everything.

just know the DOJ will be ordering a extra amount of Black Markers today

He was spewing all sorts out during the election campaign, like annexing Canada.
The fact that MAGA took this one seriously caught him off guard.

In regards to MAGA, I hope the backlash is actually real when he very obviously doesn't do the right thing with the files, you don't just give in when you've fought so hard to stop the release, everyone should see that now. We all know they will redact the fuck out of them to protect the cuntmander in chief and his scumbag friends. Bondi is fucked after this.

Prety sure it was mentioned that they could withold some files if they are currently being used as part of an investigation. This may become a bone of contention if and when the files are actually released.

I suspect like others that the files will be heavily redacted and/or have missing pages that no body knows about. Or if they do then the pages got magically "lost".

They will probably cover up on political lines too. So files that make Republican leaders and donors look bad go missing.

Time will tell.

Interesting that just as this whole Epstein thing blows up in tango mans face, he pivots to pushing an awful - russian friendly - 'peace' deal on Ukraine.
Not trying to deflect attention at all ...

Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced she's resigning from Congress!!
