    If they’re irrelevant then why not release them?

    What’s the harm, they’re irrelevant, right?

        No, this commenter is spreading misinformation. The photograph was taken today, Wednesday, September 3, 2025. Here is a stream that was live from the press event that the photograph was taken during: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZ-nNZ5G6g8

        Trump is wearing the same suit, tie, pin, and makeup in the photograph and the stream. You can judge for yourself how healthy or not he looks from the video.

          but using an ambiguous date format in a discussion about when something happened is an interesting choice

                Sorry, I made the interesting choice to forget to include CE after 2025, so it’s ambiguous if the year is before or during the common era.

    There was a press conference with the victims, and they said they would be putting together their own list, since they know exactly who was involved.

    However, they didn’t clarify whether that list would be made public. I think it needs to be made public.

    "I know I massively ran my campaign on these files, and naming the paedos, but they are now irrelevant because I’m in power, suckers. And I will be until I die, whether that’s in a few years or a decade or so, SUCKERS.
    But the main reason they are irrelevant is because I’m in them there files due to all my kiddie fiddling I did with my convicted child rapist best mate, Jeffery. Lol, all you had to do was believe ⅒th of the accusations and you’d see what sort of person I am, and the reign of terror I wrought on these kiddies, and women. But you didn’t want to do that, SUCKERS.

    You voted -or protest voted, or chose to not vote at all- for this.

    THANK YOU FOR HAVING NO ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER!"

    It’s like asking a criminal of they are a criminal. Oh yeah, it was totally me. I for sure certainly did it! Ask the victims, and the masses how they feel about it, not the fucking perp.

    We all knew that’s what he would say after his minions had a chance to redact all mentions of him in the files.

    Obviously it’s irrelevant, because he is in there and we all know it.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
