    It isn’t about the files FFS. Nobody is prosecuting him. Nobody. Just another distraction focusing everyone’s attention away from trump doing his best to seize permanent power.

    Oh, an they might lift oil sanctions on Russia. Way to go, rewarding the country helping Iran send bombs to US bases.

      Lifting sanctions on Russian oil is about offsetting the impacts of the strait of Hormuz closing. As far as anyone helping Iran bomb US bases: fucking good!

    Interest went down sure, but it’s not going away. Trump will dream the files are done but no fucking way they are

      “And if you look at searches on Google for the Epstein files, they’ve plummeted since this started. So, at least temporarily, it’s succeeding. It’s taking up Congress’ time and it’s taking up the media’s time,” he added.

      Which part of that is a lie, exactly?

        I should rebrand/phrase. I meant the ones trying on a new reason every five minutes for why we’re at war. They are lying to us on the daily to take the focus from the Epstein files. Deceiving & fibbing to divert interest in the files. That’s a paddlin.

        I’m linking to a file called epstein_victim_reports.pdf. Produced by someone I follow on Pixelfed. They and others, posting mostly on reddit, have been using search tools to go thru what has been released, and documenting their findings.

        You make a good point. How do I link a .pdf? Seems I can’t just drop it on the comment above. I should be able to UL it to my server, and give a link to that, I suppose. I’ve ul’d the file, but the share link is not anonymous, and I don’t wish to draw undue attention to the server, as it is run by an associate. How to do I share that file anonymously? I’m happy to do this better, but don’t know how.

        editted.
