    Epstein should be the theme. It even has traction with his own side. Empty G and I are on the same side, for the first, and very probably only, time.

    Even with this theme, Epstein should feature prominently. This is the first time that an issue has resonated so strongly with his own following. The entire Q Anon thing started over conspiracy theories about Democratic Child Sex Trafficking, HitlerPig amplified it, and rode it to power.

    And now we’ve come to the really deliciously ironic part. MAGAs treated this issue like the only people who could possibly be in the files are Democrats like the Clintons, but they’re finding out that even if that’s so, Dems don’t care. We’re all sick of the spineless establishment Dems anyway, go ahead and toss them in jail. Now we have finally reached that moment we have been careening towards for years, and their bluff is literally being called, but instead of showing their cards, they have to show the files, and they don’t want to do that because there are a LOT more MAGAs than Dems. Even more ironic, usually they aren’t holding anything when they bluff, but in this case, we know they are holding a Red Royal Flush.

    If it turns out that the Epstein Files were full of MAGAs who could have been destroyed, but the Biden administration chose to give them a break in order to protect the Clinton’s, or some other Democratic perv, then that’s a secondary scandal.

    Keep up the pressure, increase it steadily, and this could be the thing that brings him down.

      The files were sealed under court order until January. Biden didn’t have the opportunity to release the files.
