Guys, come on. We've all seen "My Cousin Vinny." Epstein's lawyers and estate have copies of every single document and piece of evidence the DOJ has. Not to mention the mechanics of altering every inventory and chain of custody document are insane.
Trump doesn’t have to call on House Republican to vote to release the file.

Trump can order Bondi and Patel to release the files. Tomorrow.

The question is, has he already ordered Bondi and Patel to destroy some of the files after they went through them months ago.
Trump: "House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide."

@govpritzker.illinois.gov I want you to watch this video of me slammed to the ground- why are you allowing this to happen to people you know are on the right side of history. They tied my hands behind my back and when I asked them to be loosened because I was going numb they said, “STFU.”
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.

he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.

situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.

NEW: Gregory Bovino is exactly who E.B. White — author of 'Charlotte's Web' — warned us about.

DHS named its North Carolina anti-immigrant effort "Operation Charlotte's Web." In 1940, White wrote of the "smell" that "rises" from those who "adjust to fascism" over freedom.

HASSETT: The prices for those goods weren't necessarily going up just because of tariffs

KARL: So they might not go down?

I've easily dropped franchises and series that I've followed since I was a kid for starting to use GenAi or other bad practices that harm people.

I don't really find it hard to reconcile dropping something when the activities behind closed doors are harming people.

Quite honestly your activism is bullshit if all you care about is yourself.

This goes for everything.

Life is about intersectionality, fighting for each other, and not bending the knee when you, specifically, feel like you’re safe or got what you need to be comfortable.

If you’re not okay with GenAi in your part of the industry but you are okay with it in other parts, you are not anti-Ai you’re just “anti you being put in a bad position but don’t care about others.”

Guess what though? If they have or plan to replace others with Ai, they are doing the same to you.

I’ll be honest the fact that CoD is being called out for using GenAi in development & not disclosing it but CO:E33 did not receive anywhere near this for doing the same thing is kind of telling.

It shows people are willing to overlook injustices and harmful practices if “they like the thing/person”

Instead of just releasing the Epstein files, Trump ordered the DOJ to investigate Democrats and AG Pam Bondi is complying.

Are they setting up a pretext to block the release by arguing the files are now part of an active investigation? I’m not saying that would work, but he’s desperate to block.

Bondi’s DOJ on July 7: There’s no client list. As for other Epstein files, “no further disclosure would be appropriate.”

Get ready to hear this spiel from Trump's circle as commonly as we used to hear "of course Trump will be happy to release his taxes, just as soon as the IRS completes its audit."
Everyone does know what's going on here, right? Should the Epstein evidence bill pass both the House and Senate, these criminals will say it can't be released because there is an active investigation. Never mind that a thorough investigation was completed, and the DOJ was prepared to try Epstein.
