Besides trump and any dems that may be on the list I’m sure many other world power brokers are too. Both dems and the gop would see rather see the current world structure remain.

I can’t believe the number of saps that are declaring victory. I mean… journalists who should absolutely know better that to call this as anything other than a setup and distraction to assuage both the MAGA base and allow the GOP house to pretend they suddenly had a moral epiphany.

And fucking Raskin… those clowns will invariably find a way to diminish any slight victory they might accidentally stumble over.

“Opposition Party” my ass…

We all knew (at least anyone familiar with our government knew) that there would not be full transparency. And Trump knew that when he told Republicans to go ahead and approve the disclosure bill.

It is just too easy for those at the top to hide what they are doing from the public. As Mike Pompeo admitted about the CIA, "We lied, we cheated. we stole, It was like we had entire training courses." (Although, Trump didn't need any training.) And it was all kept secret because it threatened our national security.

Face it. Our national security is just plain bullshit. It is a license for those in power to steal, murder and destroy with impunity.

Figures. Once I heard that T was allowing the republicans to vote for it, I knew the fix was in. We will never get the truth and the survivors will never be vinficated

Yep. I heard your words from yesterday echo in my memory as I heard him say key words like national and security. What you do is important. I find comfort in your ability to tell which way the wind is blowing. Thank you so much for the good work you do.

@ken #s 2 (no new victims) and 5 (jeopardizes fed investigations) also feel like they open holes for Mac trucks to drive through 😉

Mike Johnson's porn-blocking software does nothing to protect him against videos of him actually visiting the island. (I mean, why else would he be so extremely desperate to block the files?)

I really shouldn’t laugh, but I literally sent my goldendoodle running under the bed. I can’t believe the number of people, including most of the MSM, who are bleating, “We won! The Epstein Files must be released.” Anyone with half a brain cell should have expected the national security objection to be raised. I’m also getting a good laugh out of the Democrats who somehow think Trump is the major culprit. My morbid sense of humor needs to be quelled.

Right, “national security”, the catchphrase the PTB use to cover up every illegal/embarrassing thing that government does. What a crock.

Re, Epstein, I urge everyone to take a look at an outstanding cartoon produced by Canadian Michael deAdder. See it here: https://tinyurl.com/2phayj4u
