  • Probably ran out of black ink (to redact with). It seems so inevitable that even after Congress finally demanded this release that the Bondi run DoJ will be in the bag to cover up as much as they can.

      Holy shit, some of the files that have been released are just... They're solid black. Hundreds of pages, one after another of just a single unbroken black rectangle.

      This is so blatant, there can really be no question the president of the United States raped children and is using the FBI to cover it up...

    This is both funny and wildly disturbing.

    This is the most important thing on earth to many Trumpets, they "made saving the children" their "excuse" for letting the country be gutted.

      I don't know how much you keep up with right wingers. Those I know no longer care about the Epstein files. In fact, they never cared about the Epstein files! It must be convenient to have reality warp around you constantly so you never have to question your decisions or beliefs.

        It's been interesting to watch all the folks in my local newspaper comment section who used to call folks "pedos" for supporting queer folks or voting for biden all simultaneously stop doing that. If you file off enough cogs from the clockwork of yor mind you can think you believed anything at any time.

    I doubt they will ever release the files that contain(ed) the name or images of Donald Trump as long as he is in office. They will find excuses after excuses not to release them and the courts will be busy with those that are mentioned in the released files.

      Counterpoint: the DoJ aren't the only ones with these documents. Now that they've played their hand there's a bigger chance some of the unredacted files will come out.

      That doesn't make much sense. Surely anything salacious would simply be released by the next administration? We've already seen how eager the Democrats are to tie Trump to Epstein. Just a few weeks ago they ”released” a photo of Trump surrounded by women with their faces redacted to imply that they were victims whose identity needed to be protected. Turns out it was taken as a publicity photo at a public event held at Mar-a-lago put on by a sunscreen company as advertising. The women were all models hired by the sunscreen company, and have testified that Trump ”was a gentleman”. The DoJ did not think that they were victims of anything, except maybe of participating in a tacky advertising scheme. If Democrats are that desperate now, how long do you think anything hidden now will remain hidden once the next administration appoints someone to run the DoJ?

      I don't like Trump much, but anyone who thinks that he's a pedophile based on this evidence is not thinking critically.

        Why is trump working so hard to keep these files concealed if there isn't anything negative about him in them?

        Are you familiar with trump bragging about going into the miss teen USA changing rooms while they weren't clothed?

        If trump is innocent / the good guy, why not release the documents and prove it?

          The social connections between Jared and Ivanka, Alex Farkas, and Harvey Weinstein. Those connections lasted after Epstein completed his 13 month sentence.

          Because it would be damning to Israeli interests.

          I don’t think Trump is a “good guy”, I just don’t think there’s any useful evidence here. If there were it would have been leaked during the Biden administration, or it’ll be leaked/released during the next administration.

          Don’t forget that it was actually the DoJ that was primarily against releasing this information, on the grounds that it could compromise existing cases or future appeals. That’s a perfectly rational basis.

          • newguytony17 hours ago
            Yeah, nothing useful, that's why they redacted 96% of useless files they released. Biden couldn't release the files because they were sealed by the DOJ. Also quite the coincidence that Epstein mysteriously died when Trump was president. But hey, nothing to see here.
            • db48x15 hours ago
              His death wasn’t all that mysterious. He was on suicide watch, but his guards were negligent and didn’t actually check on him.
      • wahnfriedena day ago
        The evidence has not been released. That’s what this headline is about.
        • db48x20 hours ago
          Not released in time, according to an externally imposed deadline. Don’t make it about more than it is.
