  1. From the article:

    >A leaked memo that circulated through Congress Tuesday details talking points Republicans are expected to use when talking about the Epstein Files as a way to protect President Donald Trump, conveying an image of a party resigned to the fact that those files will indeed be published on Friday and that their leader will be implicated in one of the most extensive international sex trafficking operations in recent history.

    >The memo, first published by Fox News, outlines how congressional Republicans should direct any discussion surrounding the contents of the Epstein Files away from Trump, and outlined a list of accusations to allege against journalists and Democratic lawmakers. In essence, the memo gives step-by-step instructions on how to utilize a psychological manipulation tactic known as DARVO (deny, attack, reverse victim and offender) in order to brush aside any alleged wrongdoing by the president, while villainizing his opposition and framing Trump as the victim.

    >“Democrats have demonstrated a sustained pattern of misconduct,” the memo reads. “To fabricate yet another politically motivated hoax targeting President Trump. As a result, nothing Democrats post or leak on this matter can be taken at face value. Equally troubling, much of the Legacy Media has uncritically amplified these falsehoods, acting as a willing conduit rather than performing basic due diligence.”

    >Missing from the document are any points that refute the accuracy or legitimacy of the actual contents of the Epstein Files, or any calls for accountability for the alleged co-conspirators. Instead, Republicans have been given marching orders to endlessly litigate to the press how the information has been released — and then attack the press for not sugarcoating the contents of the files.

    >The full Epstein Files are required by law to be released to the public no later than Friday, December 19.

  2. Why would they do that if he’s innocent?
    The files should prove his innocence, right? Right?

    Are the republicans protecting a pedophile?
    (rhetorical question)

  3. Either they know its really bad or they or willing to spin something in case its really bad. I dont know which is worse honestly

  4. I wish the Democrats could be this unified and organized

  5. Memo:

    “Tell members of the press we are going to war with Venezuela over fentanyl= aka Weapons of mass destruction= aka a crap ton of money’s worth of natural resources.”

  6. Draining the swamp just brought all the swamp denizens to the surface.

  7. I doubt any republican in office will read this, but isn’t easier to just not defend any of this? There’s no upside to this.

  8. So… Fox “News” (entertainment) leaked the memo. How did the MAGA cult take it? Is Fox calling it what it is—instructions on how to project? Or are they spinning it into projection themselves? Because honestly, most of these asshats only get their info from Fox or Facebook.

  9. None of the major allegations against have been false. 

    The only things he’s ever earned are bad press, impeachment, and indictment.
