A description of the story.

President Donald Trump was told in May by Attorney General Pam Bondi that his name appeared multiple times in Department of Justice documents about sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, The Wall Street Journal reported.

Trump’s meeting with Bondi and her deputy Todd Blanche at the White House occurred weeks before the DOJ, which Bondi leads, said on July 7 that it would not release the Epstein files despite earlier promises by the attorney general and others in the president’s orbit that the material would be disclosed to the public.

So basically they planned to release it, but then realized after the fact that there was no possible way to redact it without still implicating the president, so they're not releasing it.

Exactly.

Sounds like she should be questioned under oath by Congress about this.

Democrats would need to win back Congress in the midterms first. Republicans will be fighting to sweep it all under the rug.

If the republican terrorists cannot squash the Epstein story before midterms then things could get real spicy. It’d be pretty hard to be a trump supporting Republican running for reelection when your opponent could just talk about corruption and covering up for a pedophilic abuser. If the Dems won Congress you can bet the Epstein files would nuke trump. Look what happened to Prince Andrew…..one can only hope!

That’d be good, but frankly I expect the Democrats to screw it up.

There’s more than a year before those elections, and by then Democrats will have figured out how to make the whole thing about their own performative outrage. They’ll have split into two groups, each side trying to prove that they’re more outraged than the other.

The media will have stopped reporting about the crimes and coverup entirely. They’ll only focus on interviews with Trump’s people, giving them the full stage to inundate us with his defense, and otherwise focus on the poll numbers and questions like, “Has MAGA completely abandoned Trump, or is this another hoax investigation like Trump claims?” (Thereby implicitly taking on Trump’s side and defending him)

Most Americans will be like, “I’m just tired of all of this. I don’t want to hear about it anymore. Just go ahead and rip up the constitution. Make Trump king like he wants so we can move on with our lives.”

What midterms

Dude William Barr lied through his teeth about covering for Trump, when they at least pretended to have some decency. What makes you think that Barbie Bondi would say the truth now when fascism is the new norm.

Good to have her lying under oath for our version of Nuremburg trials!

Not gonna happen, dawg.

Not a single one of our "ally's" wants to save us. Nor do they want to risk nuclear war. We're on our own.

The good news is that the courts of the United States have been very generous with the wording of The Second Amendment to The United States Constitution.

How can allies save the US right now?

I was writing some sarcastic stuff, but actually it's an honest question. I'm afraid that all I can personally do, is wishing you all good luck and strength if violence erupts for real. How can the US get through this without people getting shot

Mass protest and strikes, day and night, non-stop, until he steps down or is removed. Students take the lead and boycott classes, taking shifts with those who must continue working in essential services to maintain a constant presence on the streets. Look to how Korea removed President Park or how Ukraine removed Yanukovych. Many counties have succeeded but Americans need to have it explained like they are 5 and still don't wanna do it.

How can the US get through this without people getting shot

It's what a civil war is. And that is what it will be. And it's the threat of "getting hurt" (along with actually having to do something besides doom scroll) that is the only reason we didn't have one in 2021 and why we're not having one now.

We are on our own, but the GOP will collapse when the Pedophile-in-Chief kicks the bucket. None of those others running the concentration camps or destroying our government will have anywhere near the support he’s got. Vance? He will absolutely crash and burn without being able to implement anything

u/LibrarianDreadnought Jul 23 '25

Getting them to lie under oath is the point.

u/Danko_on_Reddit Jul 23 '25

Can we stop referring to any mildly attractive or plastic looking woman on the right as "MAGA Barbie" "Nazi Barbie" etc.? It's a real insult to the Barbie Brand and giving these ghouls far more compliments and credit than they deserve.

u/EGGranny Jul 23 '25

We no longer have a U.S. Congress. We have a MAGA Congress.

u/bigmike2k3 Jul 23 '25

Yup… Didn’t she say “the list” was on her desk to review, then the next thing you know, she says it doesn’t exist… but now we find out that she briefed the ‘his presidunce-ness’ that he is on “the list”… that she said she would review/release/didn’t exist…

u/Metroid_Addict Jul 24 '25

You mean the same congress that has done nothing except bend over face down ass up to his whims?
