The people in those files are currently rounding up children and separating them from their parents in concentration camps. It's not something that ended when Jeffrey Epstein died.
They also seem to very interested in knowing who online is underage with their age verification legislation.
This isn't just about Epstein and the crimes connected to him. Nothing would change even if every file was released with zero redactions. Its not going to change with an election. It's not going to change by you "not forgetting".
We all know what actually would be required to bring them to justice. But none of us are willing to accept that yet.
I don't think they did. Just because the powerful people that used his "services" are much more likely to just kill him. But, yeah, the only surprise to me would be "why did that actually keep him alive?". Not that the lie of his death was two lies instead of just one.
It's amusing that politicians think they get to decide when we move on from something. Like first of all, no. But second, there haven't even been arrests based on the Epstein files. Like what the actual fuck‽
Yep, that's the most damning thing that shows Trump is complicit. They admit the files have info that involves many many sex offers/pedofiles, and did nothing about it? Who is in charge that would stop people from pursuing that info!
Im 2028, I'm only voting for Democrat candidates who will assign a special counsel and go on an absolute tear with charges and prosecutions of these disgusting assholes
Already feels like people forgot. Or at least don't care anymore. I think Republicans have figured out the key to getting past any scandal: wait 3 months, create a new scandal, stop talking about the old scandal.
And some of you might say "Yea well I still care about the Epstein files!". That's great, too bad you're nobody. The public as a whole seems to have stopped talking about Epstein, or at least expecting anything to happen. That was months ago, that's old news now. The new AG announced they wouldn't be releasing anymore files, and the response from both officials and the public has been along the lines of "Welp, that's what we expected to happen. Oh well."
I'm actually surprised to hear that it feels that way for you.
Like sometimes with statements like that, I can chalk it up to one of "this person is terminally online" or "this person must not spend much time on [insert social media sites of choice]". But in this case, I see multiple posts online and multiple news stories about Epstein every day. And in person, at least in my rural circle, it comes up in conversation all the time even if it's some MAGA saying shit like "the pedophile thing is just liberals trying to make something stick".
We're still talking about it here. And most Reddit comments about a new political scandal have something about where are the Epstein files as a top comment.
I don't think people forgot about it, it's still strong.
The Epstein class is still doing their pedophile crimes, right now! Young girls are still being trafficked. Only when they are held accountable will anything change.
And i will keep upvoting and commenting whenever anybody says it. She deserves jail but lord only knows how many other people do too... yet of all the offenders, she's the only one prosecuted

They know once perpetrators started testifying in court it would all unravel. The US system is not designed for justice.

“So they’ve all been tried, convicted and dealt with appropriately?”
Naw. We move on only when they’re all in jail.

you see whenever she doesnt have a cross, she is not lying. whenever she wears on is when she makes a lie.

Man, she is starting to look like Cersei Lannister. I guess we have until November until they burn it all down?

At least Cersei Lannister had that regal hotness. This creature just looks like a fucking moron.

Of course I couldn't love someone who looks like her. Five, ten minutes tops maybe.
