Is there any connection to the fact that that the documents contained numerous references to Trump that do not, shall we say, paint him in the best light?
NEW: Tens of thousands of documents appearing to be from "Dataset 8" of the Epstein files went live on a Justice Department website today, only to be pulled down hours later without explanation.

This is referring to Donald Trump, referred to by too many as "the greatest president ever", a narcissistic, psychotic sociopath with an inferiority complex the size of the Grand Canyon. How does anyone in the Jewish or Christian communities support such a despicable and immoral person?
DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:
"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Hegseth sounds immature, ridiculous. He must feel pretty damn inadequate when compared to Sen. Kelly.And,frankly, he’s got good reason to feel inadequate:Kelly has far more intelligence, experience, accomplishments, integrity, dignity, courage and strength. Hegseth picked a fight with the wrong man.

Trump’s decision to shift the nation’s most advanced aircraft carrier to South America is pulling the ship out of the Mediterranean at a very dangerous time. The U.S.will have only 1 aircraft carrier deployed & none off Europe or the Middle East. www.militarytimes.com/news/your-mi...
Carrier’s move to South America leaves Mideast, Europe with none
It's a stark change after the U.S. joined Israeli strikes on Iran in June and engaged in some of the most intense operations since WWII in the Red Sea.
