The Epstein files are important, but not releasing the economic data for October is damning. The economy has completely tanked and the Trump government is refusing to and or incapable of carrying out its basic functions. share.google/e726OJJXXxry...

Pam Bondi and Kash Patel told Congress the Epstein inquiry was already completed.
Now, on the eve of a vote to release the Epstein files, it’s suddenly “reopened.”
You don’t need a conspiracy board to see what that means:

These kinds of things happened two decades ago under the last Republican president. A lot of people made a lot of short term money. Then it all came crashing down and his successor had to clean up a huge mess. Here we go again.
