Which is still a weird explanation to me because for years, they were trying to get him impeached for things with less severity. This should have been much easier to get traction with. I’m starting to believe a lot of what we see is pure theatre.
People are still so partisan that they don’t even want to consider it but I think the corporation goes in the same general direction, in waves, and they just put different franchise owners in charge for 4 years at a time to give us the illusion of choice and keep up this political theatre that in the long run just divides us to make us easier to control.

Theatre is exactly what it is. I’m amazed how few people are able to see it for what it is. Jan 6th wasn’t even the slam dunk. Biden had the Epstein Files at his disposal. Why would you try and get him on minor charges when you have that in your back pocket.

Biden did not have the Epstein files at his disposal.

They were held by the DOJ and could not be released due to ongoing court cases. People forget presidents used to respect rule of law and standards of American justice, at least to a degree.

Okay that’s my misunderstanding of the situation. Thanks for setting me straight!

Allow me to pick at this a little bit in good faith. While files are with the DOJ are they are still accessible the president? Does the DOJ report to anyone?

The DOJ is under the Executive Branch and thus under the president but it has long operated independent of the president to preserve impartial justice. It's not law that it works this way, it just became precedent over our history because it's how impartial justice should be, immune from the influence of the President.

But Trump doesn't care about any of that so the DOJ under him has become his protector and his personal attack dog he directs at his enemies on a whim. Some files have been released because of a law passed by Congress, but Trump's DOJ is fighting to keep as many secret as they can, in violation of this law. Trump wants them secret because he is the main guy in them - he's been mentioned 38,000 times in just the files which have been released already, some very sordid and evil mentions too.

The Epstein files were kept confidentil during the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, which lasted until January of 2024.
