    Here are the Epstein Files. For those of you who have seen this comment before, my apologies. I am trying to keep this information alive. Please feel free to share. Contact me if you want provenance.

    https://joshwho.net/EpsteinList/black-book-unredacted.pdf (verified pre-Bondi) Trump is on page 85, or pdf pg. 80

    Trump’s name is circled. The circled individuals are the ones involved in the trafficking ring according to the person who originally released the book. These people would be “The List “ Here is the story.

      Reminder that Virginia Giuffre (Virginia Roberts in this document) died earlier this year, in an apparent suicide.

      Which is presumably convenient for somebody.

      So we can all assume that every single person that voted against it was actually a client, right? Do their voters know they’re voting for Epstein’s clients?

    So a bunch of pedos and people who are okay with pedos.

    Dems need to run with this. Point it out to the MAGAt moron brigade and keep the fire lit. Those twits have the attention span of a gnat but maybe if you keep jingling the keys long enough, something might seep in…?

      Lol just wait until dinos like Fetterman castigate their fellow democrats for daring to emphasize it. During the election Fetterman ripped on democrats for harping on trump’s felony convictions, saying we were supposed to be the party of “forgiveness and redemption”. Imagine supporting “forgiveness and redemption” for people involved in child sex slavery.

      Trump himself tweeted (or “truthed” which is more 1984 than anything ive heard recently) that Obama and Clinton made the list up to attack him. This guy just admitted to being on the list.

    What is the logic behind voting No? (Yes I understand any such logic would be twisted and flawed)

    Other than “my name’s on the list so I would prefer the list stay secret”

    Democrats don’t have to block it if they know Republicans will. The votes are for show and they’re all in on it. Or at least a significant number of them are, either by direct involvement or complicity.

        yes, those are the fall guys. that’s in the interests of the capitalists, that you only hear that part, friend. the red vs blue culture war is theater.

        don’t get me wrong: if you or me wanted to run for house of reps and change things, we’d probably be signing up as blue. there’s probably some good-hearted farmers doing the same, signing up for red because those are their cultural “good guys”.

        we’d all be naive and we’d all be drowned in the corruption, most likely.

          Yes and no. There are legitimate, progressive leftists that don’t suckle on the billionaire teat and don’t serve capitalist interests on the blue team.

          Also, not relevant. If you care about justice for those on Epstein’s client list then those who were willing to hide it need to be named and suffer consequences. Then you make it come up again and do the same thing regardless of whoever obstructs it again, red or blue. Do it until justice is served. Name and shame them afterwards, don’t let the world forget.

            Let’s hope there are consequences. I can get behind that. I dunno what will sway the power anymore. I don’t actually care about what happens with this in congress right now, I’m just trying to end the war between my neighbors and me, and survive. This seems like a golden opportunity to unite with the people swindled by Fox.

          Okay, but the red guys did it, right? They could a made the blue guys do it, which would’ve pushed the feudalistic billionaire breakdown of America easier for them, but… They didn’t? Why not?

        As far as I could tell only 12 people could vote on whatever this was, and 8 of them are republicans.

        Hell, one of them even voted for it. I assume the one in the shakiest seat.

    Love calling out politicians for this. Were there any non-Republican politicians that voted against, or was it 100% Republicans?
