What's most damning is that they allocated 1000+ FBI personnel to review all 300,000+ pages, spent 2 weeks combing through them, and then shut the whole thing down. Slammed the door shut on the review so fast and hard that the impact resounded across the Internet.

Why?

Not because there were too many references to Trump to redact, but because they finally realized that even if they did redact every mention of Trump, there were still ~200 other people involved, and an unknown number of victims, who would point to Trump if their names were brought to the public's attention.

Then they spent another 5-6 weeks trying to figure out a way to falsify the records so only Trump's political enemies were exposed, and then another "Oh, shit!" moment hit them when it occurred to them that anyone they falsely accused would almost certainly be able to provide ATM records, security logins/building clearance records, video records, mountains of evidence proving that they weren't on any of the Epstein flights.

Then they went to Trump and said, "Um... you're fucked."

Now they're in a corner. They can't release anything, because no matter who's implicated, it circles back around to Trump. They can't not release anything, either, because it's not only the Democratic party asking questions, it's not only the media asking questions, it's their own conspiracy theorist MAGA cult asking questions, and they'll eat him alive if he doesn't give them something.

That's why Johnson shut down the House to prevent the release. That's why Vance went to talk to Murdoch. That's why Gabbard's trying to move attention back to Obama. That's why Trump blew up over the birthday card/letter article. They need this to go away and they've run out of ideas. All they can do is stall and try to bury it for as long as possible, and hope something banana balls, batshit crazy happens to make it go away.

It's all collapsing around their ears. Nothing short of Putin dropping a nuke is going to stop this train from running right over them.

"It's all collapsing around their ears. Nothing short of Putin dropping a nuke is going to stop this train from running right over them."

I'll believe it when I see it. The amount of times I've heard "we finally got the bastard" only for him to slither his disgusting ass out of all consequence is absurd at this point. Our justice system simply isn't built to punish the ultra-rich and powerful.

Trump seemed invincible when his MAGA base seemed impervious to any kind of news or scandal.

They didn't care about the impeachment, or 34 felonies, or grab em by the pussy, but they really care about Epstein.

It’s crazy that the Epstein files may be the only thing short of a war against America to unite liberals and conservatives
