It's not just Lumpy. It's a cabal of pedo-naires involved.

Diane Smith's avatar

Start with Lumpy.

Or what? I am so frustrated with all this explaining and proving by people who have no power to act.

Here is the huge (fatal?) flaw in our system. If enough people refuse to ensure that laws are followed, then there are no laws, and it’s all a house of cards.

No one is going to tell us otherwise. Although trump and his corrupt regime treat us as though we are stupid, we are not. And besides these missing 53 pages, no one is going to convince me that he is not guilty of far more in this scheme than what those 53 pages tell. He's in the thick of it with Russian involvement and money laundering. All the billionaires are guilty on multiple levels. When you see the pictures of trump surrounded by a group of young teen women, or with bimbo looking Melania (was he watching her do that pole dance?), or gloating and salivating looking at young prospects with Epstein can you honestly believe he is innocent of any wrongdoing??? Knowing his past of having sex with a porn star with his wife home pregnant or being a convicted sex offender and rapist or remembering the exploitive language in reference to women, is there really any question regarding his guilt???

Well, some ARE stupid, I'm sad to say. After four awful, lie-filled years, they voted him back in, and now we're living through an even more crime-ridden regime.

Susan Rose's avatar

Very true. It's still unbelievable to me that people actually voted for this!!! I guess I am really referring to us, those of us who commiserate here. You know, the sane people who are too intelligent to be brainwashed!

Hope Crescione's avatar

I continue to be astounded at the stupidity out there...and I don't use that word lightly. I didn't allow it to be used in my classroom! Do you remember when Kellyanne Conway said that they preferred not to use the word: lies...that they preferred "alternative facts?"

Susan Rose's avatar

They find a way around everything, don't they? I'm not surprised that you were a teacher. I bet you were a great one!

Hope Crescione's avatar

I loved it, and tried my best! I told that fact to my students and they laughed like crazy! So then I added...well we also don't have used cars anymore. They are now "pre-owned." You bring them home, park them and never use them. You just own them. There was more laughing!

Diane Smith's avatar

NO question. Guilty.

Lexine's avatar

I agree. Now what?

Susan Rose's avatar

We hope they drag his ass in for a hearing. And reveal all the evidence in those files. All those endless redactions are not protecting the victims alone. They're protecting trump, also. Always have hope.

Joan's avatar

At least impeach him, he’s a crooked grifting politician with no redeeming qualities.

The committee conducting the Epstein hearings.

Pam Bondi = the Pedophiles BEST Friend and Protector!!!!!!! Raping and Assaulting and Abusing Under Age Girls are just fine with Pam - the Pedo Protector - Bondi!!! WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES WITH TRUMP IN THEM??????????

Hope Crescione's avatar

She also needs to go to jail!

Lorraine Potter's avatar

Yes that is exactly what it is.

David Maceira's avatar

There is an Epstein survivor who stated that severely incriminating videos exist. And if they were ever released Bone Spurs would have no choice but to resign.

Hope Crescione's avatar

Resigning isn't enough...he needs to go to jail!

Diane Smith's avatar

First things first. (But yes.)

Christopher Mark's avatar

They all need to be arrested. The obvious cover up is the crime

Marek's avatar

trump is not only demented idiot, he is an abuser, a criminal, a sex maniac, a primitive human being - not a person to lead the USA. a piece of human faeces that must be brought to court and tried for all crimes

Tim Matchette's avatar

Thanks David for helping to keep our eye on the ball, the ball of distraction. Sure as hell this bottom feeding felon needed more distractions to keep his vile ass out of jail and enlisting an equally vile lap dog bubbling bondi to help. When we retake the House, the pucker factor he and his AG will experience will be huge.

Susan Rose's avatar

If you can search Tom Hoefling's post and I restacked it - disgusting evidence!!!

Susan Rose's avatar

Check out Jamie Raskin's statements about all the information he read in the files. Yes, way more than just 53 pages to put him away!

Diane Smith's avatar

aaannnnnd ? We are chomping at the bit here!

Susan Rose's avatar

It's a post by Tom Hoefling and I restacked it so I believe searching Substack for Hoefling or Susan Rose will bring it up. You can just feel his disgust.

Susan Rose's avatar

I thought you might search on Substack to read it. Raskin tells of some of the victims in the unredacted files giving ages - as young as nine, he said. Beyond horrific. He must be locked up, no more stalling.

Diane Smith's avatar

ThankU, i was not looking to read more, or question you! I was really venting (again) about how we all want action now! You & Raskin - kudos ;)

Lexine's avatar

“If members of Congress decline to act -- —if they prefer redaction to reckoning—then they are accomplices to ending the rule of law”.

Ok. If this is true, who is left to hold the accountable?

Are there no legal scholars who are intelligent enough or brave enough to propose a solution?

Does anyone have any ideas of how to move forward?

Don Clement's avatar

Arrrgg!! When we give power to corrupt fascists, neither laws, facts, reason, conscience, nor Constitution hold sway with them. Their power IS their justification. (Just ask Stephen Miller.) In our After Trump Era we will face a Reconstruction as daunting in its own way as our post Civil War era. That is, if we're lucky.

Robin Patterson's avatar

Ghislaine Maxwell is so confident that Trump is pardoning her that she's negotiating with the Dept of (In)Justice for a security detail on her release. "It's important that she stays safe outside prison walls"

Robin Patterson's avatar

The 24/7 security team wld definitely be govt funded. In Trumpland it’s all about protecting perpetrators and prosecuting victims. Survivors want to release their own Epstein List but have been threatened by the DOJ with slander lawsuits!

Susan Rose's avatar

If she gets pardoned I don't think I can handle it! And if they use our tax dollars to protect her, that would add insult to injury. This evil witch should never even see the light of day!

Diane's avatar

I really believe that to keep suppressing evidence of outrageous lawless behavior and thus avoid consequences while enjoying the life of a filthy rich dictator, he will try to cancel the midterm elections. Attacking Iran, kidnapping a fellow dictator, torturing Cuba, threatening Canada, trying to take over Greenland, invading our states and cities with his private ICE army, etc., all have a purpose beyond the obvious which is staying in power. The clown cabinet heads could never qualify for the positions and now luxurious lifestyle they have. They will hang onto this good fortune tenaciously. They will do everything they can to keep him in power. Watch them all work hard to cancel our right to vote.

Eddie Gomez's avatar

Somehow Not Surprised !

Geri Unger's avatar

Impeach him now, and all his enablers. Call new elections.

Hope Crescione's avatar

I posted elsewhere that I do believe the attack on Iran has everything to do with distracting both the media and the people from the recent news about the Epstein crimes. I read the whole account, and wonder why Trump hasn't even been questioned yet, never mind arrested! Since the war against Iran has started, the Epstein Files have completely disappeared from the news media. As long as Trump keeps creating distractions, there will be no justice for the victims of the monsters who perpetrated their assaults. Enough is enough!
