So more than 1/3 of all Epstein files?
BillyClark@piefed.social · 50 pts · 186d
Probably the pages where his name was mentioned tended to have more than one mention.
And then there's that one page they found in Donald Trump's handwriting where the same phrase is repeated over and over hundreds of times, "All work and no play makes Donald Trump rape little children." That's a joke. You know it's a joke because Donald Trump has never actually worked in his life.
Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 185d
Wasn't the ~3 million files number that have been released only like 2% of the total?
bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 45 pts · 186d
That's astounding. Was this like his full-time job for decades?
TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 48 pts · 186d
Nah, his job has always been golfing; like the presidency, child rape was just a hobby. Some under-18 hole after a long day of 18-hole.

Why didn’t Biden release them before the election?
FlyingCircus@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 186d
Because the entire global ruling class is implicated, and Biden is a loyal capitalist whose material interests lie with protecting the status quo, even if that means allowing his fellow capitalists to rape children with impunity.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · 7 pts · 186d
I'd love for things to be status quo again right now trying to make things better through strategic primaries then trying to survive Trump's private army.
FlyingCircus@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 186d
Well, that's not going to happen. We live in the world we live in, so maybe instead of wasting time wishing that we didn't, we should focus on actions that can actually change the world, like organizing the working class to break free from the chains of the capitalist pedophile class.

Or just voting against the person who’s telling us they will be a dictator next time?
FlyingCircus@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 185d
I mean sure, yes, go ahead and vote. It takes almost no energy and is literally the easiest political action one can take. But relying on voting has manifestly failed to prevent a fascist dictator from gaining power. And now that the dictator has power, do you really think elections are going to be fair? When was the last time in history a dictator got voted out of power?
I think you’re naively living in a world that doesn’t exist anymore.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · 1 pts · 185d
Biden got more votes than Trump ever did so voting does work if it is done.
Saying things like the above comment are just voting suppression to keep the fascists in power.
Ruxias@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 185d
They're saying yeah vote but do more... What do you mean?
FlyingCircus@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 185d
I'm literally telling people to vote, but OK.
realitista@lemmus.org · 17 pts · 186d
Not to defend this but you know that if he did, MAGA would have the excuse that this was all a big Democrat hoax. They can't claim that now.

I mean the real answer to their question is that Biden believed in an impartial DOJ.
myserverisdown@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 186d
No the hell he didn't. If he did, he wouldn't have rightly pre-pardoned himself and his family members.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · 4 pts · 185d
Biden did not pre-pardon himself.
Five of his relatives but not himself.
myserverisdown@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 185d
Noted. I was just going off my own recollection rather than verifying.
nieminen@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 186d
Additionally, as I understand it, it was still in active investigation in 2024. Also, he can't just "release the files", it required an act of Congress to be released.
Do I think he should have tried? Yes, but I'd be 0% surprised if he's all over them too.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · 6 pts · 186d
If Biden is all over them you don’t think Trump would release every mention of him?
mimic_dev@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 186d
It's much more likely he's in someone's pocket and they're in there. And Trump's just not aware of the connection between the two
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · 2 pts · 186d
I can see him not releasing information to protect Israel but I’m sceptical he’s bought by an individual.
nieminen@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 186d
I can see it either way. But I agree it's more likely the old bastard is protecting Israel like he always has.
Just saw the aipac warchest is like $80m for the midterms.... But if they pass this new law about requiring passport and/or birth certificate to vote, we're gonna be hosed. Only half of Americans have a passport, and many millions don't have access to their identifying records.
Edit: fixed dollar amount
jve@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 185d
Off by a factor of 1000, but still way too much.

Thanks for that, forgot the exact, and assumed billions because that seems to be everything these days. Fixed it.

"British English" are the ones you're looking for. Them or "patronising".
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 186d
I don't think this is true. It only required Congress in this instance, because Trump was never going to do it unilaterally.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · 7 pts · 186d
I was told a president can declassify whatever they what just by thinking about it.
nieminen@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 186d
I believe that's not necessarily the case with active investigation documents, that could easily muddy the legal process of an active case.
aesthelete@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 186d
This was made clearly evident by the fact that even after an act of Congress, they still haven't complied with the law compelling their release.
jacksilver@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 185d
Actually, I'm pretty sure he hasn't been mentioned at all so far, not sure how accurate this is, but it says more or less the same - https://factually.co/fact-checks/politics/joe-bidden-epstein-files-e8c67a
nieminen@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 185d
Yeah, I don't suspect he's in there, just wouldn't be surprised
anon_8675309@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 186d
Good question.
NatakuNox@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 186d
The rot goes all the way up. I know Biden wanted to do things "the right way" but white houses in the past have leaked information to the people. Biden's administration could have given the unredacted files to the media through a whistleblower. That's what needs to happen now. The only way we are going to know the truth is if the files go public through none government means.
fizzle@quokk.au · 4 pts · 186d
I dont think any of the victims want that.
Like we all hate Trump, he deserves to hang, but let's not throw the victims under the bus.
NatakuNox@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 186d
I agree. But my point still stands.

Why didn't Trump do it in 2016??? lol
AudaciousArmadillo@piefed.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 186d
You also see the international fallout of this in England and Norway. Maybe that was also a factor, back when the US might have cared about allies.
sharkaccident@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 186d
I'm tired of going high do nothing DINOs. Here's an idea give them to a couple of our allies. Let them release.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 21 pts · 186d
I honestly figured that once we saw the Epstein Files, we'd see lots of names more than Trump, but as it turned out, not so much. As usual with Trump, the truth always turns out to be far worst than our worst imaginations, because he's really just that bad.
Even Epstein said there isn't a good cell in his entire body, and that he was "evil."
osanna@thebrainbin.org · 1 pts · 184d
Imagine being called evil by a child trafficker...

I just don't get it... why can't these rich and powerful white dudes just have sex with women who are physiologically/mentally/legally MATURE enough to do so...
Edit: "physiologically"

Fuck models and prostitutes for a while. Pretty soon you can't get it up for regular models and prostitutes. Then you need world-class, best anywhere models and prostitutes, famous ones. Then that stops working. Then you need the kink to really lay on. Gets old pretty fast. Nothing is getting it up anymore. Then one day, you see your daughter down the hall, and it twitches. But you can't fuck her, she's gonna be around forever and in society where your secret won't be safe. She could tell her therapist, her teachers, her mother, the world-class model prostitute you're married to. Thankfully Uncle Epstein has a bunch of girls who are disposable. It's just that he has an odd tendency to take photos of you. But that's OK, everyone you see here is rich and powerful too, if one of you goes down, you all go down... and that can't possibly happen.

I bet some of the worst of them are psychopaths who don't directly enjoy it as much as they enjoy proving that they can do it and get away with it. Because they're special. They're better than everybody else. Clearly. /s

Because you can't force them to do what you want without them telling the authorities and ruining your reign of debauchery.

I like to think that Trump is a guro enthusiast.
With child rape, the GOP could attempt to pull out the usual suspects. "She was leading me on", "I swear she looked 18", "It wasn't that serious", etc. They might actually win depending on how many corrupt judges they keep on their side.
But none of that works when guro is in play. Doing certain things to a victim's eye socket could be seen as too far. No amount of "she led me on" can get rid of that.
Which would be a compelling reason for why Trump wants the Epstein Files to go away, even though he's gotten away with everything else. Such a revelation would put the members of the Epstein Class in a new light, going further than generic authoritarians.

They were doing Satanic (or Sumerian I guess actually) Ritual Abuse and Sacrifice. You can see hints of it in the files already released and you can find whole stories about it from victims.
Do most of them believe in Moloch and Baal? No, but that's not what ritual abuse is about. It's a binding mechanism to ensure everyone stays quiet.

I motion to officially change the name of these files to the “Trump files.” Pretty clear who the main character is at this point.
