Epstein. We all watched when he was murdered in the national spotlight. It became a meme, a joke: "Epstein didn't kill himself." This new administration was supposed to "make 'em all pay" and "protect the children" and "bring down the elites." Instead, it's like watching Keystone Cops. Trump feigning righteous indignation at reporters asking legitimate questions, after he campaigned on getting to the bottom of this stuff for 4 years. The new DOJ/FBI officials claiming previous officials were compromised, biased, and weaponized. Maybe they were, but replacing the bad apples seems to have spoiled the whole damn bunch. It's as if no one in government fears the voters anymore. Are we that stupid? That easy to be written off? That easy to be manipulated? We need an Iran-Contra style full-throated investigation for the American public.
No more jail video that shows the wrong cell door and has a minute missing.
No more "it's on my desk" followed by, "I meant the whole file, not the client list, was on my desk."
No more, "Epstein clearly was blackmailing and we have hundreds of videos of his customers," followed by, "He didn't have videos of customers - those were all just images and videos for his own sick pleasure."
This is more important than all the warnings about fascists, globalists, communists, or any other "threats to democracy" currently being cried about. It's the most important issue on our national stage. Here's why:
1. When Epstein died, right before our eyes, lazy Americans sat there mouth-breathing and did nothing. If we'd seen that in some other country, we would have mocked the corruption mercilessly or even called for regime change in that country. But in our own? A few salty social media posts and we're over it. We tucked our tails and pretended to be satisfied by, "He probably deserved it, anyway." But that's not good enough - in your heart of hearts you know that's bu****it. That guy should have served time - but so should all the pigs he fed and covered up for. We fecklessly let them all get away with it.
2. If we now let the sour grapes chorus of, "I'm sick of this whole Epstein issue, anyway" win out, our country will prove once and for all that we are not a serious people. It will show what lemmings and cowards we have become. Look online - people are already trying to say this whole fiasco is this person's or that person's fault in how they handled the case, so we want them fired.
Then what?
Is that supposed to be enough?
Sweep the rest under the rug?
How about we don't stop asking questions until they are answered? How about protests in the streets, not for illegal aliens or wars in the Middle East, but instead for our own government's transparency? How about making the people in power fear the American voter MORE than they fear the truth getting out? As long as we're losing that equation, we're losing.
3. Who knows what really happened - but this recent take from Tucker Carlson is becoming the most plausible. Why doesn't Trump just order everything released? I've heard the argument that if Trump were really in the Epstein files, every detail would have been headline news for months during the Biden administration. That argument makes sense, yet at the same time, we have clearly seen Trump trying to downplay and minimize the Epstein case recently. Why?
