Dafuq is giving the right such a huge chubbie over this Epstein *****
It is the most useless thing in any of Trump's promises...
Trump just got the SCOTUS go-ahead to start gutting the Dept. of Education. And MAGA goes BUT EPSTEIN!!!!!!!
And the left and the media is drooling over this new chance to split the MAGA coalition...
JFC...the right couldn't stop stepping on their own dick even if they didn't have feet.
I know this may be a difficult concept for some of you guys to understand, but the rest of us believe we ought to have a government we can trust at the very least to do what they themselves say they're going to do. We also believe in the now long-forgotten ideas of justice and equal treatment under the law, and we deserve a government that lives up to those ideas, or is then held accountable when it not only fails to do so, but lies to the people they serve. We believe in these principles regardless of which party is in power.
But what if they aren't lying?
What if instead Epstein was just a sociopathic rapist who also happened to exist on a rung of the social ladder that placed him in the midst of a bunch of wealthy famous people?
There is not one shred of actual evidence presented to date that he had anyone trafficked to anybody but himself. Everything else was always circumstantial and largely a product of the social connections he had by virtue of his position in society.
At some point when enough people tell you there's nothing there, including now people who have A LOT to lose politically by doing so, maybe they aren't all in on the cover up. The idea that guys like Kash Patel and Dan Bongino are covering up a child rape ring on a global scale, after being all in on that theory for years and standing to be irreversibly harmed amongst their supporters, is just absurd on its face. That's far, far more unbelievable than the claim that Epstein wasn't having girls sent to powerful people.
It's definitely possible that there isn't more to the story, but I'd think they'd put forward something more conclusive to demonstrate that.
Prior to working for the government, Bongino and Patel were both extremely skeptical of the Epstein stuff. They seemed convinced that there was more to the story. Trump, his son, Vance, and others in his admin stoked the flames of this story and made it out to seem like a massive conspiracy.
Bondi said she had the list on her desk months ago, and now the list doesn't exist.
They make a big show out of releasing documents and having influencers at the White House.
When Epstein died, there wasn't any footage from the jail, all the cameras were down. Now, years later, footage exists! They release it and it's doctored and missing at least a minute.
On top of that, the most convincing stuff the administration has put forward essentially amounts to "trust me bro" and "stop talking about it."
They hyped this up on the campaign trail, in interviews, on social media, and by making a big show of inviting influencers to the White House.
When our government has lied to us about our involvement in other countries, wars, opioids being safe, COVID, etc., why should we just take them at their word here?
