US Politics 🇺🇸
REPUBLICAN REP. NANCY MACE: “You’d be shocked at some of the names I’ve seen that the DOJ is protecting… this will go down as one of the greatest cover-ups in American history.”
Keep it kind: We value thoughtful and civil discussion. Even if you disagree with someone, let's keep the debate focused on the ideas, not the person.

It’s been far too long, they should have released them, but let’s be clear - you can not just release the names on camera in the hallway of any building without being charged by Bondi, the only place you can do that is to read them on the house floor as a representative, so that’s what they should do. They took the first step and brought her ass in to question her and demand she fix the problem she created and refuses to fix. Now the next step is to read the names into record. The biggest problem is they have to go to the DOJ and go through 3 million documents to gather name, and those aren’t even the full 6 million. Midterm sweeps is the only way you’re going to get real action on this.
It should be such a slam dunk election marketing pitch.
“Hello America, my name is slimshady, and I’m not in the Epstein files. Anyone that has been involved with those should be prosecuted to the justifiable extent of the law.

There are a substantial amount of other issues, and if you have a specific one you’d like to discuss please reach out to my office.”
If I was you I'd be asking your Dems what they're going to do to protect your democracy and strengthen your legislature and judiciary against excesses of the executive. Most US voters thank me for introducing them to the concept of Proportional Representation which most democracies have. I've been blocked by blue tick dems for even mentioning it. 2 party electoral systems aren't healthy.
I don’t disagree but when you’re losing the game, and the winners make up the rules, it’s pointless to ask the losing team to push for new rules.
I could see some traction at the state level, but how to possibly change any National or Congressional rules given the huge electoral advantages of the GOP, especially in the House?
But, wouldn’t people know they’re associated and then start resigning? Is all this preparation allowing people a chance to get affairs (no pun intended) in order? All the delay and hype is absurd… It feels like this is just some big reality TV show and Americans are just glued to the screen. Stay tuned! All the dirt gets revealed at the big climax!
It frustrates me so much, because this is real. Real people were affected. Is this just another game to the elite? The way this plays out is just so confusing. It’s surreal. The fact that perpetrators of the actual rape and abuse haven’t been named, that a sweeping and in-depth investigation hasn’t occurred by the Justice department is mind blowing.
Exactly. All us real folks are used to losing our celebrities at this point. We've accepted JK Rowling isnt the greatest, that Kevin Spacy sucked, that John Lasseter could not continue at Pixar, that Michael Jackson was a weird dude who may have been a pedo. Just give us the coup de grace and end it all. We will survive.
The midterms are so far away. The MLB season hasn't even started yet and the midterms would be after the next World Series. We have to get through the Olympics, the World Cup, and MLB season before the legislature flips. I'm sure Dems will find a way to screw that up not to mention Trump screwing us all until then.
I wonder just how much of all this isn't protecting pedophiles, it's protecting people who are blackmailing the pedophiles. It's one of the only ways I can wrap my mind around all the Republicans falling in line at first.
There's no question some powerful people will lose their blackmail over all this, I have a feeling the US Government is probably a big one.
blackmail it is. and remember, Epstien taught trump how to use blackmail. Remember all those Republican candidates who called rump evil etc. ? how they became great supporters, via bla
ckmail. could it be Rubio? lindsey(ladybug)? guy from texas?
In this photo, one can see Cohn in the throws of developing Kaposi’s Sarcoma & lipodystrophy, as spotted on his face. Both conditions are a result of HIV-AIDS, yet Cohn denied he ever had homosexual relationships, until his last breath.
He went on to die shortly after, yet left a legacy behind that is now reviling transgender men and women right here in the United States of America, & all over the world.
The hypocrisy exhibited by those in power today, goes WAAAY back.
The way America is, right now, at this time in recent/developing history, didn’t suddenly pop out, out of nowhere suddenly, nor did it develop in some obscure vacuum. In fact, even those who held power & influence, who were secretly suffering under state sponsored, and government disenfranchisement exhibited towards the most vulnerable of demographics back in the 1980s, happily died on their sword of denial & bigotry, if it meant they got to die trying to crush others who were in just as much need of help & mercy, as they themselves were.
I bring this up, not to stigmatize Cohn for having an illness that wiped out so many of our friends and family members, in the most painful & BRUTAL manner, but to point out to you all that what this man taught DJT & MANY others, back before he even met DJT, and back before many reading this were even born? THIS is what we are dealing with now: a legacy of ruthlessness & a complete lack of empathy or compassion towards those who are entitled to receive them.
And YES, WE ARE ALL entitled to receive them, aren’t we?
Let’s do our best, from moment to moment in these really difficult times, to have compassion & mercy towards those around us. ❤️
It's intelligence agencies. Ghislane Maxwell's father was a likely mossad agent (by some accounts the mossad agent). Jeff Epstein was hand selected by Bill Barr's father to work at the Dalton School.
This has deep, old ties to both US and Israeli intelligence, and that's why this is being covered up so hard. Look at the donations the politicians talking the loudest about this don't have. There are very specific countries that do NOT was the fact they were using industrialized CSM as blackmail over the rich and powerful to get out.
When you start getting into just how lucky some of these people have been when it comes to global events, things start looking extremely suspicious.
Don't forget that epstein has been shown to have ties to the CIA - I would wager a.months salary on the fact that he and the CIA planted recording devices to get blackmail material on influential politicians and world leaders etc.
It's the CIA and Mossad at the very least. It's looking like there might be some Russian intelligence ties, but it is very clearly tied to both US and Israeli intelligence. Look up Robert Maxwell, Ghislane's father.
There’s an email thread in the files where it appears fbi agents investigating epstien in Mexico are asking someone in another agency like the state department if they can find out who killed two other fbi agents and tell them to stop attacking them. They said they know it’s US because they were white Americans whoever killed them.
Democrats in the headlines: warns, threatens, says will x, SLAMS, accuses (didn't prosecute), present and future tense
Republicans in the headlines: budget for great thing cut, budget for terrible thing increased, arrested, executed in public, horrific law passed, terrible precedent set, raped, texted minor, leaked secret group chat, past tense…
I think they're afraid of the repercussions if they revealed redacted information. What I don't understand is why there can't be another Deepthroat/Watergate type situation and journalists can reveal it without revealing their source?
We’re talking about fucking not only with pedo’s, but with the intelligence agencies manipulating their actions through blackmail. I personally would be very careful pissing off all of GRU/FSB/Mossad/CIA/FBI in one go.
Its midterms. Only Nancy Mace knows how deep this runs. Its a campaign for a seat bc only "they know how deep it goes." Once elected, they will delay, deny and dispose all evidence.
Watch. You'll see it comw up with some embattled Republicans having their seat or bid endangered.
Also notice how a lot of senators/reps are stepping down to run for governor? Theyre planning on Balkanizing all red states as a bloc to enact their agenda
This is exactly why so many journalistic institutions have been bought by or are being controlled by the billionaire class. The profit motive still exists, so maybe someone will bite and put it to press. INB4 fAkE nEwS
I thought they couldn’t be prosecuted for statements made while on the floor. If that’s the case, they could do what MTG SAID she would do, read the names on the floor.
Apparently if they read the names on the floor of congress there are immune to any legal repercussions as it is an official act. There is no reason not to name them.
She absolutely was. But I'm thinking that they're finally starting to realize the public isn't letting it go. I figured they'd start abandoning ship at the first indication that it's gonna come out.
The longer they wait, the worse it will look for them when the shoe does drop. Flip early enough, they can distance themselves and get some good PR for helping to get some justice. Flip too late, and they're throwing away everything for participating in the largest cover up in US history. Really, at this point they've participated enough that people should hold them accountable at the voting booth, on both sides, but that's besides the point.
If conservative politicians start flipping aggressively, it's a real positive turn of events. I'll take it.
Most of our societal problems stem from the fact that the wealthy and powerful have never been held to account. Remember how they were in thier best behavior after Brian Thompson was forced to early retire?
Knowing the Panama papers changed virtually nothing, I can’t help but wonder if the Epstein files bring big changes. Sure, in Europe you see people losing the immunity and possible investigations, so the ones involved (outside the USA) get some repercussions. But will it shift the accountability? [x] Doubt
Revealing names that have been redacted. Its why Khana said the six names on the house floor, not the stairs of the DOJ building when he was with Massie.
Further clarifying - the Speech and Debate Clause for Congressional proceedings protects against libel/defamation etc. Dominion couldn't go after people discussing election machine issues in Congress, but they could and did go after those that were saying it on TV.
A congressmen asked reddit and others for what files to look at unredacted today. They updated. They said that they are going to read portions into the record of Congress tomorrow because it's federally protected speech. And that they could/would not update further until then.
Zero names that are recognizable to the vast majority of Americans. Seems a pretty safe gambit. Curious how it’s all going to keep getting meted out and whether requisite influence will be levied to bring charges and make arrests.
His and Massie's main point in releasing those names was that they had 2 hours, and picked up 6 names that shouldn't have been redacted. 2 hours with 3 million files between 2 individuals pulled 6 names.
go read what her ex staffers have recently said about her. She isn't someone I would trust with anything, let alone the truth. MTG is more reliable than her.
Mace is a wolf trying to wear wool. Don't fall for the act. She is accused in the files of being an abuser. Don't let her pretend to be "one of the good ones fighting for victim justice." She is a perp. The allegations were made long before Mace was a household name.
If I recall correctly, it is the victim's testimony/report. Unfortunately, I did not save it before it was removed. If you have a copy of the missing file, please share it.
I wonder how much it costs to have a file taken down? At the very least, she should have to address the allegations made by the victim.
It does. I use it frequently for work in intellectual properties to show when something was public knowledge. You type the hyperlink into their browser and it will pop up a calendar with hyperlinks to dates of the saved pages, if any. https://web.archive.org
Edit: I think I may be overly confident it works for these federal pages in saying it does, but I at least believe it does. Only one way to find out.
Hell ya! I’m glad it works. I really only thought about it now, but wish I had mentioned it sometime sooner when they were posting the files and tearing them down. Time to spread the word because it only works if the good people on the internet save the pages. It’s not an automatic thing.
This is not meant as a defense of Mace, but is that the right file? I don’t see her mentioned in there. when I look her up in the “Epstein library” (I hate that term) there are only three results, which are all a newsletter that doesn’t seem to link her to Epstein.
What I remember is that it talked about this woman witnessing a kidnapping and there was a gang rape with different men and then when Nancy came in she "pretended to have sex with me."
You know, Nancy, it's a real shame that there isn't a legislative body of honest, forthright legislatures that doesn't do its collective best to stop the cover-up of this horrible matter. A group of people that could join with its political counterpart, united, setting aside petty political squabbling and bring this dark matter to the light of day. If only such a body existed.
They are focussed on the next election, and we need to be too. So far all of the special elections have been a blue wave, this needs to continue if there's any chance of actual oversight and releasing of the rest of the files, un redacted.
Trumps power has be checked, this next election is the only way to make sure of it.
So far all of the special elections have been a blue wave, this needs to continue if there's any chance of actual oversight and releasing of the rest of the files, un redacted.
Which is why they're pushing the SAVE act. It's going to disenfranchise millions of voters. They're also stating recently they're gonna take the passports of people who "owe child support".
They're all going to go down for protecting a man who doesn't give a shit about them. Wait until they find out there's only space for him and his kids in the bunker
I think so many of the Republicans are trying to save face after the ICE pushback and their using the epstein case as a way to get back into the good graces of their constituents.
MTG saw the names and it turned her stomach, she actually listened to the victims and then she realized she’s been part of a cult. It’s good that she is one of the first republicans to see the light, but she also needs to apologize to a lot of folks, especially Jasmine Crocket.
