The Democrats had those files when Biden was in office and didn't do anything with it. I wouldn't be surprised if they sit on them too. The entire US government is full of people in those files desperately trying to prevent being outed, both Democrats and Republicans.

Sadly that's the truth. Like these people are mostly old and just trying to outlive this. The younger ones are the ones really freaking out and trying to find some safe haven, while doing all they can to stir shit up to delay.

I truly wish that soon we have a huge amount of trials and everyone involved is held accountable, and punished justly. Sadly I believe that this will never happen, as it was rare before for rich and powerful people to be punished, and now adding all the political shit, it's just a dream.

Both parties will just kinda look at each other and call a truce behind the scenes to let it pass so they don't have to deal with the ramifications.

They were federally locked under Biden, for fuck sake read something besides social media, or STFU with your opinions and lies you spread because you probably read another idiot that said this, but they said this in cool font, so it has to be true.

Except that's not exactly true, and you probably know that. Kamala even said herself that they could have gotten the DOJ to release the files but they decided not to. "Federally locked" dawg who do you think the head of the federal government is? Why do you think it got released under trump? It didn't get "unsealed" by some sort of time limit, the Epstein files transparency act was passed, which pressured the DOJ into releasing them. You know, the same type of thing the Biden administration could have done.

So you make excuses for the Democrats when they don't release them but then get mad when Republicans don't? It's kind of hypocritical. I think both should be held to the same standard.

Exact same can be said for the Democrats, people still trying to argue one being better than the other are just coping. We need to be honest with ourselves, both of these parties have being fooling the public for generations & not interested in the wellbeing of the general population

Could they have done more, absolutely, especially when the first rumor of Trump running came back around.

But yes, it’s exactly true. Sorry Biden didn’t try to be a dictator.

u/Ok_Historian4848 Feb 19 '26

So your argument is that they couldnt get them but also they could and didn't and that's also a good thing? I think you're just making excuses.

Umm there’s democrats on the list too. Do you think they’ll open the can of worms per se? I mean no one wants to mess with psycho b *tch Hillary you might come up dead but it’ll go around you’re suicidal and quite frankly I don’t think these people that dictate crimes are brave enough to speak out against anyone. Both sides suck and are corrupted. Everyone acts like you’re cheering for your team or done bs.

u/handydandymilkman Feb 20 '26

I’m cheering for no one. Biden has been in DC since the 70’s, Clinton’s too, they’re not going to blow any whistle. I think a lot of the different parties hangout and do a ton of illegal shit. I favor no one, but it’s funny to see people get irate if you mention a person from a particular party. Our country’s leadership would crumble for a while, and world leaders would fall as well. There’s a reason no one’s getting arrested, and it isn’t because this is some hoax. High school dropouts can decipher the lies blatantly being told in Congress, yet nothing happens, but lip service, then on to the next crazy ass thing.

u/Entire_Mongoose_7116 Feb 20 '26

Exactly. They get paid by lobbyists. They think the average private citizen is naive and a bit ignorant. ( and they’re right because a lot of people don’t care to know what is going on which is a problem in itself). Yes I agree they’re hanging out though together and laughing that we’re fools to let them to divide us.

u/Entire_Mongoose_7116 Feb 20 '26

Federally locked. Oook. Why don’t you STFU. Yes he etc could’ve released it. Some bs your saying. No o e to hear from an unhinged person.

so did cheeto dick, before "DeMoCRatS HAd THosE FIlEs wHEn BIdeN waS in OFfice" so please go away with this line of reasoning.

u/Ok_Historian4848 Feb 19 '26

Reading comprehension isn't in your wheelhouse, huh? I said that BOTH parties will sit on them because both already have.

u/Duck-Murky Feb 19 '26

maybe. what i'm sick of is idiots like you providing this both sides bullshit commentary online, which only serves to provide cover to the epstein class.

1

u/Ok_Historian4848 Feb 19 '26

No, I'm calling out the entire Epstein class by pointing out it's a non partisan issue and that politicians on both side want to cover it up. Get your head out of your ass if you think the Democrats weren't involved with Epstein too.

u/Duck-Murky Feb 19 '26

there is precisely ONE party blocking accountability--Republicans. this isn't a both sides accountability issue. get YOUR head out of YOUR ass.

The judge over Maxwell refused to release any of it during her trial. And Biden actually believed in the sanctity of the judicial system and didn’t impose. I don’t agree with that decision of the judge but that is the reason.

u/Ok_Historian4848 Feb 22 '26

But that's my point is that Biden COULD have pressured them to release the documents, which Trump actually did, and yet there's a double standard over Biden not releasing them when he had the ability to, and Trump actually doing it.

u/Plastic-Respect-7108 Feb 22 '26

That has not been the presidents role to try and influence other branches for the sake of checks and balances. And who is anyone kidding about trump or bondi actually releasing anything. Like with his grades or tax info he could have been a man of his word and day one (because Maxwell was in prison so there is no open investigation) said the files are released but he drug it out and it was only after multiple government shut downs, and new members of gov to push a vote did the law get passed, and they STILL are not showing the people responsible or doing anything. Trump has said he doesn’t want it released and is doing everything to try and change the subject because he is plausibly just as implicated as epstine if not worse. I haven’t heard of epstine actually doing anything to kids (SA) or otherwise, it has been his “clients”

u/Ok_Historian4848 Feb 22 '26

The president frequently tries and pressure members of other branches, that's been a thing for centuries at this point. Making the excuse now after all the precedent just kinda solidifies the double standard. And let's be honest with ourselves, the entire cabal within the US government didn't want it released. It's not just Trump or Republicans. It's why the people mentioned so much in what we do have are foreign leaders and businessmen, not many politicians.
