  4. I had a friend years ago who went to work for CPS. He didn’t last long. The things you see and hear at that job are horrific. He visibly aged in the single year he worked there. And his job was to protect children from abuse.

    Imagine working to protect the abusers.

  5. Remember, Donald didn’t place his hand on the Bible.

  8. If fucking Massie files impeachment articles before the fucking Dems do… JFC. Are there any Dems awake in Washington?

  9. Impeach (and convict) everyone in the executive branch from the president to the local police officer claiming qualified immunity when they break the law. Fuck the whole lot of the crooked-assed executive branch.

  10. How stupid can this administration be? So stupid in fact that they would think that anyone would accept this as something that remotely qualifies as releasing the files.

    Frankly, it’s insulting to the average person’s intelligence and I do mean average because you’d have to have a pretty low IQ to believe this is not anything other than a continuation to cover up a pedophilia ring involving the President at this point.

  11. Now we as the public should work on identifying the people in the photos.

    Jmail is updated and groups/organizes photos by people similar to google photos or ios photos- [https://www.jmail.world/](https://www.jmail.world/)

  12. They’re beginning to work on drafting articles of impeachment. Are they idiots? This contemptuous act was entirely predictable, And they should have had all the paperwork ready to go a week ago.

  13. Let’s get this fast tracked. Move with a purpose, like democracy is on the line, because it is

  14. The epstein coverup has to be the most obvious and massive coverup in human history.

  15. Maybe the honest lawmakers should pursue disbarment for the attorneys who are intentionally committing obstruction… that might get their attention.

  17. I hope it actually works this time. get him the fuck out of there.

  18. Impeachment sounds good, but won’t actually happen with all the sycophants in the regime. He was already impeached twice, but never convicted, and removed from office. It certainly didn’t hurt him, cause here we are…stuck with him AGAIN.

  20. Why is Thomas massey apparently the only Congress person who actually does shit

  21. Everyone involved in the coverup has made it loud and clear that your daughter is for sale to the rich and powerful!

  22. “The files should be released, they should have minimal redactions only where absolutely necessary, and any redactions must be accompanied by an explanation.”

    Yeah, none of those things happened. Impeach Bondi.

  23. Doesn’t matter unless the republicans agree to do this instead of bending the knee.

  24. Why just an attempt at impeachment? She broke the law. That should not be up for a partisan vote, it should be a charge and a trial.

  25. There’s no chance they can just make this disappear, right? Surely some people have copies of documents that will survive no matter what this administration tries.. right?

  27. They knew this was coming and should have started working on it the day the order dropped. They should be on their final draft by now.

  28. Senate won’t go along, big waste of time and money

  29. I cannot conceive of any explanation for redacting to protect the victim where the entire file is blacked out and not just any information that reveals the victim’s identity. The perpetrator and the acts committed stand by themselves perfectly well if the victim is only referred to as “Girl 4327” or whatever.

    They are protecting the perpetrators and the DOJ/FBI for failing to prosecute in the past, convince me otherwise.

    And damn them all for thinking we are so stupid to fall for it.

  30. You know Trump ordered the DOJ to open an investigation into himself and his friends which will have no one actually do any investigating. He can cover up everything while he spends the next 3 years getting everything deleted.

  31. Generally curious, why does it have to be “impeachment” if it is considered a breaking of the law? Why can’t it just be “arresting and charging”?

  32. Why weren’t the articles prepared in advance? We knew this was going to happen.

  33. Let’s all see how long it takes for nothing to happen from this.

  35. Imagine ruining countless children’s lives and futures and justice so you can protect an old guy who has always been a horrible human being who just happens to be a member of your party. I dont care what party, these pedos need to be exposed and held accountable.

  36. There should be a reward set up for any DOJ employee who leaks them all. Since it’s the law they should be released, there would be a good case to keep their job and collect the reward.

  37. Please, please do it. We really need *someone*, anyone in the cabinet to get impeached and removed so we can break the stigma on removing people that are clearly unbelievably incompetent, because gone are the days of resigning in shame.

  38. Like that he ought to be impeached for being almost single-handedly responsible for the decline of American democracy, it’s unfortunately just not going to happen. Go ahead and make the statement, though. Anything on this record is more or less to our benefit at this point.

  39. Get outraged MAGAs.

    Trump said he would release these on Day 1.

    Could he have been lying to you?
