  1. Well, that would just blow the case open even further! I thought trump wasn’t involved!

  2. The dam seems to be cracking. It’s amazing the legs this has. This feels like his Hillary emails moment.

    It’s about fucking time.

  5. Why do they have to be marked if Trump is not on the list or if there are no lists at all?

  6. What a strange thing to do with hoax files, that don’t exist, that you aren’t involved in

  8. And that’s why Bondi said there were no files. So many were marked with Trumps name that they couldn’t release any without drawing attention to pages they didn’t release.

  9. Oh shocker. We all know trump was involved, and the more he covers it up, the harder it will bite him.

  11. Trump wasn’t just Epstein’s client; he was a partner.

  13. Holy shit, folks.

    This is officially the biggest presidential scandal ever. Congratulations maga you voted for this.

  14. More proof he is attempting to hide his own involvement. This man thinks he’s invincible, so his desperation to keep his involvement with Epstein under wraps suggests that his recorded actions are so severe that not even being the President would protect him.

    Release the files. Destroy the regime. This is his kryptonite.

  16. I want to believe so badly this will finally be the thing to shake people from the cult, but I have my doubts. The fact bannon has said they are united and on the offensive after the WSJ story makes me think they will circle the wagons again on any attack on trump, especially any attack coming from a “non-credible” source to them (ie from mainstream media or democrats). It’s only when their far right podcasters doubt trump will they listen.

    The message isn’t as important as the messenger, and democrats and normal media isn’t the right messenger. It just causes them to dig in more because they see it as another attack on trump. They will just spin another conspiracy narrative to try and explain it all away no matter how ridiculous it seems because their worldview is tailored around trump being the savior and everything else has to fit that notion. The messenger has to be someone within maga to really start turning people.

    Which is often how cults eventually decrease in size. People within the cult, particularly people higher up in the hierarchy, start to question and break off bringing some people with them. Rarely is it outside influences that break up the cult.

    But who knows maybe enough stuff would go to court and this type of stuff sees the light of day that maga influencers start jumping ship?

  17. Who can he blame faster, sleepy joe, Obama, Hillary, the boogie man?

  18. So this confirms he’s in the files? But I thought the were a hoax? 🤔

  21. I’m looking forward to the back stabbing and desperate self-preservation panic in the Trump administration / GOP leadership.

    They’re all cruel, evil, and completely untrustworthy. I’d much rather them tear themselves apart like a rabble of orcs than have them devote all their attention to expanding their network of concentration camps.

  22. Is it just me, or does this sound like Nixon’s tapes on crack?

  23. >“My office was told that these personnel were instructed to ‘flag’ any records in which President Trump was mentioned.”

    Excellent! So they have trump-specific records ready to release. There must be quite a bit of it to get that much attention..

  25. The epstein stuff is leaking 24/7. Someone within the administration is clearly trying to get rid of him.

  26. That’s cool Dick Durbin, but how am I, your constituent, supposed to believe a fucking word out of your mouth when you have been so obviously compromised by the influence money has. Anyway, fuck Trump and all, but please do something, anything, for the working class members of yourstate instead of voting with the Republicans and randomly grandstanding every so often.

  27. This is what is meant by “releasing credibly information” said by the Trump admin.

    After we’ve removed trumps name, and only kept people who are inconsequential to Trump in it, THEN we can release it!

  28. Why would they need to flag Trump’s name if he’s not on the list????????

  29. This is what they mean when they say they’ll release “credible” information. They’re deciding under the Presidential power of “nuh-uh” that anything mentioning Trump or his friends is automatically “not credible”.

    The WSJ isn’t a liberal publication. They wouldn’t have ran their recent story about Trump’s birthday wishes, nude drawing, and references to secrets and never aging “enigmas” if they weren’t convinced of it’s authenticity and news worthiness. So why then was this document missing from everything the government has released so far? And what other documents or correspondence was there between the President and one of the most notorious predators in modern history?

    Whether or not there is anything there, you cannot trust anything this administration releases or says. This is the same guy who drew on a weather map with a sharpie and insisted he didn’t rather than admit it. If he’ll go that far for something like that, how far would he go for something like this?

  30. Wasnt Bondi the AG or DA or something in Florida when this was all going down? So she’s already a major conflict of interest

  33. Trump is the fucking deep state.

    It’s disgusting that Conservatives will sit by and support a PDFILE! Turns out the real pizzagate the entire time was Trump! I never want to hear from a Conservative that they care about the safety of the kids. When they don’t give a damn and actively support a predator themselves.

    Edit: Conservatives in the Trump world would support a PDFILE to just own the libs.

  34. Holy shit. The story gets worse everyday. First the file exists, then they don’t exist, then rexist but this time have been written by Joe Biden. The same Joe Biden they all said beyond incompetent. Now it’s out that there’s over a billion dollars in wire transfers to Epstein, and Trump was instructing the DOJ and FBI to destroy evidence highlighting his and Epstein’s relationship. You can bet this isn’t even half of it. This has to be the end of him and his admin or they’re all complicit.

  35. Still just so wild to me that Trump voters with access to the internet are just now beginning to realize that he is a twisted weirdo creep.
