  1. Who was the 1 repub who voted nay?

    That’s a huge red flag. They’re almost guaranteed implicated.

  2. Get ready for the most obvious cover-up of all time.

  4. Lol, “risks disclosure of non-credible allegations”. We have to protect these wealthy and powerful men!

  5. Of course Clay Higgens Lousiana 3rd District would be the nay vote.

  6. “Ok, ok, I guess we’ll pass this fucking thing…” Mike Johnson.

  7. Even though this is very likely not the last hurdle, it’s good to have gotten over this one.

  8. The Kabuki Theater is on its way to the Senate. This is no where near the finish line. And even if the Senate does not intentionally fumble it, my vote is on Trump and a pocket Veto

  9. Time to go to the Senate, let’s see what happens there

  11. Since when did Trump ever care about whistleblowers lmfao.

  12. He has the power to demand their release at any time, he can just release them. Nobody, but himself stands in the way of their release.

  13. They’re going to run out of black ink trying to redact these.

  14. Pass it clean through the Senate and have Trump sign it. I have heard zero concerns from the victims about this, and fuck everyone involved. “Innocent”.

    Anything but full disclosure is a fucking joke.

  15. I hope Clay Higgins never gets asked any other question for the rest of his natural life.

  16. Great, so in a few years, after dozens of court cases, we’ll get a few redacted documents without any information!

  19. If John and Jane Q. Public know that they are going to not release it because “there is an active investigation” into democrats (which is weird because I thought it was a democrat hoax, but there’s nothing but democrats implicated) how are they going to square this with the public? When we can all see how blatantly corrupt and manipulative of the system they are? It’s baffling and frustrating that this is happening. And it’s only 1 of MANY ignorant, wasteful, hateful, ILLEGAL individuals things they do.

  20. So they dragged the shutdown on long enough to doctor all the files, got it. 

  21. Who’s the one guy that voted no? Bet there is a reason..

  22. Wait a minute… 6ish weeks ago, we needed 1 democratic vote to pass the release of the files because it was pretty split on releasing the files. Now Trump says do it and everyone except 1 votes yes?

    I already know something is up, but I want everyone else to think this through. Why (rhetorical) the sudden change on such a large number of senators?

  23. 427-1, I wasn’t expecting it to be this big of a clean sweep.

  24. Given the sudden 180 from the administration….there’s zero chance these files haven’t been either altered or redacted to oblivion. Or both.

  25. So is it likely some Democrat Congress critters have access to the full unredacted report? Would someone be able to accidentally release the full unredacted report in the event they do the obvious play and cover up Trump’s involvement?

  27. Ok, great. Now what happens? Given that the Republicans control all 3 branches of government, I don’t see how this changes anything.

    Trump has been getting away with blatant illegal activites and behavior his entire life. I mean heck, the Supreme Court of the United States gave him a free pass to do what ever the fuck he wants without consequence.

    I truly hope that this is the pivot point that brings the US back from the brink. However, given previous experience, I highly doubt it. Especially with Trump finally agreeing about releasing the files and all but one of the House Republicans going along with it. Clearly, they’ve either doctored and redacted the files or they’ve got another ace up their sleeve.

  28. Can we get the version WITHOUT the scrubbing of republicans and conservatives?

  29. I hope they try to redact and amend the files before release, and someone is waiting for them to do it and has a Pentagon Papers leak of the Epstein Files. Catch these fuckers dead to rights in the cover up.

  30. How do we persecute those who hid and covered up the files once this regime crashes and burns to bring justice to everyone?

  31. I think everyone needs to remember Dump sucked some guy off named bubba

  32. you don’t spend all this time saying they’re fake, don’t exist, etc. and then turn around and release them without HEAVILY redacting them in favor of your party.

  33. Someone somewhere has a copy of the originals. Either some hacker group or President of foreign nation definitely has a copy. Once that data hit a hard drive, someone got it. If they do release this information doctored I cannot wait for the original to be released.

  35. So we didn’t need to swear in the last Rep to get this through?

  36. This is a good thing. All of a sudden they’re ready to vote on this and it passes?? When Mike help the house on recess for weeks so they couldn’t vote on this? Delayed swearing in a new member?? Nah, this isn’t going to be good at all.

  37. I hope someone’s been holding an unredacted version of the files somewhere… and drops it at the same time.

  38. Meaning trump has already scrubbed it of his name and anyone associated with him. With trump, its always a scam

  39. They are just going to release it purged of Republicans and redacted as hell

  40. Lets place bets on whether they’ll go with “we would love to but can’t legally release them” or [REDACTED] [REDACTED] Bill Clinton [REDACTED]
