Attorney Andrew Branca says it best:
one could believe what the Trump administration is explicitly telling us–they HAD good reason to EXPECT that a careful review of the Epstein “files” in the possession of the prior administration would lead to evidence of criminal conduct that could be prosecuted–but that the ACTUAL review of what is available to them does NOT amount to evidence of prosecutable criminal conduct.
That could be because the criminal conduct was much more limited than imagined–perhaps it was largely Epstein who was the actual monster, and he’s already facing the forever consequences of that conduct?
Or it could be because the monstrous conduct WAS widespread but that the EVIDENCE of that widespread criminality has been stripped from the “files” available to the current administration, due to no fault of Trump.
After all, Trump’s most vicious political enemies have been in possession of these “files” for years. If the conduct largely implicates those enemies, why would they NOT strip the evidence of their criminality from the files they knew would be available to Trump?
We can also be certain that if the “files” in the possession of Trump’s enemies had so much of a hint of Trump himself engaging in any of the alleged offenses against children, we would have learned of this notional evidence many, many years ago.
And yet we have not.
When there are hypothesis consistent with Trump acting in good faith, why does everyone who is purportedly a supporter of his administration so quick to jump to the conclusion that Trump is acting in bad faith?
I think that those files had a lot of high ranking people on them- from both political parties. I used to say that certain politicians like SCOTUS judges were acting oddly, as if someone had videos of them with Vietnamese prostitutes.

Personally, I believe (because, of course, I have no evidence) that we are dealing with the most evil people on this planet. People that would rather annihilate this earth than face the shame and scorn of their actions being brought into the light of day. I don’t believe there were just sexual acts performed with children – I believe there were some sacrificial rituals performed by these demented humans. The powerful people that are involved in this still wield power and they are capable of, and have the means to actually destroy this planet. I think a lot of them have already been identified and will be dealt with extrajudicially. That is my hope.

“Blackmail only works if the information being used as leverage remains secret.”
Yet even after it was exposed, it didn’t hamper Swalwell after his affair with the Chinese honeypot, Fang Fang. I suppose you could chalk it up to maybe not being sordid enough.

At this point even if there was video made public of Hillary Clinton torturing children it would be dismissed and accepted as a deepfake.

I’m not speculating, I’m “stating potential facts” 🤣
Many powerful, wealthy people compromised. House and Senate major targets of Mossad. So many that one worry must be a collapse in trust of our government.
Biggest loser Israel, when there is incontrovertible proof that they are the primary beneficiaries of our compromised government. Compromised by their paedohoneypot operations. CIA/FBI are secondary beneficiaries.
The corruption is so vile and so widespread that it is backing up on us and stinking up our whole country. We need Operation Giant Flush to clean this shit up. Trump appears to have made the wrong choice. Trust is dead. The potential fallout from a real cleanup is nothing compared to living with the stench.
Maybe I’m on target, maybe not, but that is how I would bet. Matt Gaetz would have been an orders of magnitude better choice for the USAG. A positive move: Bongino or Patel resign and blow the whistle immediately and loudly. Otherwise, the swamp is dead, long live the swamp.

I dont think that it’s on Trump. I think the files were sanitized long before Trump took office.
@HomeInSC · July 9, 2025 at 5:21 pm
Sanitized? Quite possibly BUT the character of those in a position to sanitize seem just as likely to think about how to abscond with data and use it themselves. A few bigshits removed? Probably.
hh475 · July 9, 2025 at 11:34 am
Two things. The first is that it’s sometimes hard to prosecute sexual abuse if the victim doesn’t want to be identified or be identified. I have seen cases fall apart because of this. Cooperation of the victim is not absolutely necessary to prosecute, but it’s very difficult to win. That’s particularly true if there’s only a video or something like that. The second is that the memo indicates a lot of child porn, but did not say that it was child porn created by Epstein. People who are into child porn commonly have huge collections that they get from purveyors. The porn they found may not directly involve anybody ar the island.

Something that I’ve thought all along – and freely admit to being possibly wrong if not completely – is that it’s worse than even what Branca says in the sense that there are judges that will throw out ANYTHING that the Trump administration does. Look at that circuit court judge that tried to destroy every piece that could help deportations such that NOBODY could be deported.
That means the people doing the investigating are trying to be extremely careful and thorough. That extra care could mean that there’s extensive review of every piece of evidence to try to only use pieces that can virtually be 100% sure to get a conviction. Whatever standards they evaluate to have been raised to the point that nothing can meet it.

I believe there is something more sinister here but but if the Biden administration along with a corrupt FBI stripped out all of the evidence, then what could Bondi do.
Divemedic · July 9, 2025 at 12:18 pm
TPTB sanitizing the information makes more sense than Trump backsliding to screw his support before midterms.
One midterms are over and Trump becomes a lame duck, a scenario where Trump is willing to screw his base becomes more plausible, but makes no sense at this point in time.
Banzaibob · July 9, 2025 at 12:23 pm
I agree. Rumor mill also has him thinking about mass amnesty which I don’t believe either.
SoCoRuss · July 9, 2025 at 2:15 pm
The simple fact is Trump is a braggart and a Bully, standard NYC type. That’s why his new nickname of TACO sticks so well. Get away from the US news and look around the world. The world has gotten tired of his and the USA’s bully tactics. They don’t need us, we need them. How many folks know Japan and South Korea refused to go to the big meetup in Europe. Their news is showing a trend of they think he and by default our country is insane.
But trying to explain all this anymore is a waste of time. Folks have made up their minds and will never change no matter what truth is shown to them, that’s the American way….
But if this doesn’t finally get thru to the fanatics to show how all their Messiahs and heroes that have come to save them are ALL corrupt and truly evil on a scale you cant understand, its finally over and good riddance. If someone wont defend kids from sexual perversion, torture, medical organ harvesting, what else do they allow or support or participate in?
OH BTW, Don’t forget to join and send money to the new AMERICAN Party, naturally totally run and controlled by Indians from New Deli call centers and other non Americans. Really fits in with all this shit doesn’t it????.
SoCoRuss · July 9, 2025 at 2:41 pm
Forgot to add, The 3 stooges of Justice: Blondi, rajahmoney and dumbo also wont address the testimony of the victims themselves who haven’t been suicided “YET” of all the A-listers and elites they were trafficked to on the island and around the world because “that” would invade the victims privacy.
See this story as example:https://nypost.com/2024/01/04/news/all-the-a-listers-named-in-the-new-jeffrey-epstein-documents/
I wont address the Messiah’s attack on a reporter who asked about this bullshit yesterday. Look his comments in the video up yourself. There is only so much a decent human being can take of this. Funny how he has stated during his life about how many of his Buddies like Roy Cohn and Epstein are just real good guys who like them young. People of like persuasions tend to gather together?
Dan · July 9, 2025 at 4:42 pm
Regardless of what the files contain they need to be released. Yes….the contents will he questionable at best. But saying they are going to release the files then 5 months later say there are no files simply confirms that BOTH sides are corrupt and compromised.
Reefdiver52 · July 9, 2025 at 4:48 pm
The flight logs give us a good idea who went to Little St. James island, aka, Epstein’s island! A lot of our “representatives”, “elite” business leaders and, a guess on my part, 80% of the Hollywood fools who make a living pretending they’re somebody else! Every actor is pretending, No need to listen to their world view and opinions.
LOOK IT UP!!!!
Another possibility is Trump has the facts and is using it to get these CONgress ass clowns on board with his agenda.
Maybe not, but a good possibility!
Trump always seems to have Ace card in his pocket!
I hope this is possible but………
@HomeInSC · July 9, 2025 at 5:29 pm
If the information has been sanitized all Trump needs to do to get clean copies is to tell Nastyahoo no more money or weapons until a complete dataset is delivered.
Epstein did not operate as a lone wolf.
Honk Honk · July 9, 2025 at 6:23 pm
Saw one speculating on a Trump affair with inaction Bondi and the popcorn is delicious.
Why would they come off of honey pot blackmail files?
Michael · July 9, 2025 at 6:34 pm
Looking at the Diddly “Trial” has any of the rich and famous party goers found themselves in any sort of legal troubles yet?
Like the “Alleged nothing happened” Epstein situation IF nothing happened worthy of legal recourse WHY would they put Diddly in the legal system?
Swamp dwellers protect themselves. What did Hillary say, “If I go down, half of Washington DC goes down”.
They’ll get it all from you sooner or later ’cause they own this f**kin’ place. It’s a big club and you ain’t in it. You and I are not in the big club. By the way, it’s the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table is tilted, folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good, honest, hard-working people: white collar, blue collar, it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on.

Personally, I THINK Trump has been talked too by the “We can get to you 7 ways from Sunday” 3 letter team and they promised the JFK special for him and his family,
Aesop · July 11, 2025 at 2:37 am
As in many cases where he opines, Branca is wholly ignorant of the significant facts, as in this case he appears to completely unfamiliar with AG Bondi stating unequivocally that she had the client list “in the file on my desk”.
Other than that bald-faced and plain admission of what is now transparently de-lied to have ever existed, I have no idea why everyone assumes the 180 from Trumps minions is indicative of wholesale fraud. /sarc
A telling line from Charles Laughton in Witness For The Prosecution comes immediately to mind.
