Politico was kind enough to give him a full article.

I just don't care... while it is important, it certainly will not affect one way or the other, the day to day lives of Americans.

Epstein is dead
Maxwell is jailed
Survivors refuse to name names

from the article

quote:

force the release of all Justice Department files on the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein



Do the files contain the names of the victims and who they were trafficked to?

It's just a political football at this point. Any real evidence is long gone.

When it was all about Clinton everyone wanted the Epstein files released. Once it pivoted to Trump everyone acts like they don't care anymore.
Maybe we need to accept both had issues with Epstein.

Wouldn’t it be great if these people wanting everything released be just as concerned with all the kids the illegals brought with them across the border and have been trafficked and are missing.

I really don’t think Trump is implicated in the Epstein files. I think his donors are or someone who supports him.

I see your priorities are such that keeping uneducated Mexicans from taking your job is more important than child rape rings.

Everyone here was in unison, until Trump threatened to disown them if they didnt change their opinion.

Maybe we know why Israel first donors are pouring $20M into a fricking Kentucky congressman race.

For me... that's not it.

At this point, I think we can all agree that no matter what comes of any further releases- no one will be satisfied it's the whole story. Right, left, center- no one will believe.

Also, a turning point for me was the "victims" making a big deal of naming names then disappearing faster than a fart in the wind. That bothered me.

So... it's a combo of, we are never going to get "the truth", if we did we wouldn't believe it, and even the victims don't seem to care- the only one that did is as dead as Epstein.

Agreed. I just looked at the Politico article. It was coordinated to go out with/after those NYTimes- nothing-burger e-mails.

If the halls of Congress were as coordinated as the NYTimes/Massie/Politico. Imagine the Trump agenda they could accomplish.

No one better dare say Massie is just a good libertarian baw wanting the truth out. Bet me a dollar that the Speaker will nix it/won't quite get the votes Then with the NYTimes emails: they will hold JE over Trump's head as if he is a pedophile-As a back up plan.

The end goal is MAGA out so Massie can promote who the establishment want in 2028. Let's get real on who that is.

I wouldn't call the three emails nothing burgers... I'd call them proof of political corruption where anything goes to "get Trump".

Nobody cares about victims... even the victims won't speak.

This has devolved into a get Trump scheme, it sucks, but that's all it is now. There will be no justice in this matter, just a political bludgeon for whoever gets to wield it.

Excellent points. Those ladies MTG cried for with the other females had most likely already had binding NDA's--- With hefty settlements they probably still haven't spent.

Besides, MTG said she would read off the names. She STFU and is on the View now having tantrums because she wasn't the best fit for the Senate seat in GA. DJT told her no, already to someone else. The JE files is assigned to Massie now.

I remember Massie, MJT, and a bunch of Dems holding a press conference with some of the alleged victims where they were talking about putting together a list of the perpetrators and releasing it to the public. What happened with that? Wasn't that going to be separate from these files?

And we have our own to blame-Blondi. Who paid Veritas to get her flapping off the mouth to her Nanny applicant in a public place?
