Trump raped kids
And if you don’t believe the probability that occured… he admitted on daytime television that he was attracted to his own daughter!
There are pics of trump and Ivanka that make people in Alabama uncomfortable...
Either way, this only works in the Democrats favor. Now the crazy MAGAts have more people to be pissed at and not vote for.
Huh. That's weird.
Now just WHY would the Gang of Pedos be going out of their way to protect pedos? So strange, I thought they were the party that was going to get to the bottom of Qanon and release "the storm" on pedos, which were all presumed to be Democrats?

On the one hand, yeah, shady as fuck from Republicans. On the other hand, the Dems could have pushed this during Biden's term. I doubt that Epstein was adding more names to his ledger after being dead for a few years. I actually do feel like this is a "both sides issue", and we would be better if this shit landed on both sides of the aisle so we have easy identification of the targets to clean up.
Democrats didn't release the files for the same reason Trump didn't. It doesn't even have to be that prominent democrats were on that island (although it's safe to say they were) it just takes a few CEO's and other financiers of our current government to say "Nah, kill that" and it will NEVER see the light of day.
We are constantly losing sight of what all of this is really about and who's really in power here. They want us screaming about Dems versus Republicans in this WWE theater spectacle so we don't start a class-war. And it's worked perfectly.
Here's the thing -- what are the "Epstein files" exactly? Who claimed they exist in the first place? Who has them?
House Republicans want to rape your kids too.
Why is it not expected that they'll release a document that says:

You forgot to add Hillary Clinton, and it's Barack HUSSEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNN Obama
What happened: The House Rules Committee, which prepares legislation for votes on the House floor, voted 5 to 6 against attaching Khanna's amendment to a procedural measure related to the GENIUS Act and a defense funding bill.
Republicans said the amendment was not pertinent to the GENIUS Act, which would create the first regulatory framework for stablecoins, or the defense funding bill.
I hope the next step is one page bill to vote on and not an amendment to an unrelated bill.
I feel like this amendment gives Republicans full cover since they can just say, "It was an unrelated amendment" and they'd be right.
Just the other day Rep Khanna tweeted,
On Tuesday, I'm introducing an amendment to force a vote demanding the FULL Epstein files be released to the public. The Speaker must call a vote & put every Congress member on record.
But had this amendment passed it would not have put every Congress member on record. Had this amendment passed Congress would have been voting on the "GENIUS Act" and defense funding bill.
We would have been in the EXACT same situation as we JUST had with the "Big Beautiful Bill". People voting for it and then saying, "Oh, but I don't agree with it."
Had his amendment passed Democrats could then vote against the bill by saying, "The GENIUS Act and defense spending bill are terrible pieces of legislation. I also want the list released, but I couldn't vote for this bill for other reasons."
And yes, a one page bill that says to release the files would never actually get a congressional vote. The Speaker of the House would never bring it for a vote. Some procedural nonsense would block it. BUT make those fuckers defend their decision.
Just because Democrats are in the minority doesn't mean they have to give up at the slightest inconvenience. Push this hard. You've found a weak spot, hit back! Push Republicans. Fuck, push Democrats if you have to.
Do the dems really want these released or is it just a pretend game from both sides?
Definitely this. If there weren't also democrats incriminated the Biden administration would have released it.
oh sweet child, thinking Democrats will act while they have absolutely zero power to yield expecting different results.
Looks like they did, https://lemmy.world/post/33016257
They kept pushing which is exactly what I wanted. I hope they keep at it.
Do not fear, pilgrim. I shall enlighten you on the ways of our LORD.
You see, the LORD knows that his agents require compensation for their holy work. Therefore, God proactively created children to serve his most worthy agents, and thus, serve the LORD! It would be an honor to be chosen for such a holy task.
The Republicans understand Epstein's holy mission, and wish to see it upheld. Such is why Epstein was smited by the hand of God when he turned his back on God's light. No treason shall be tolerated in the eyes of the LORD.
It is the Devil who wants such children freed from their duty. To distract such children from their holy task exudes the grave sin of sloth. We must stand firm against such demonic influence if God's Plan is to succeed.
Please be aware that I am roleplaying as a evangelical whackjob in this comment. Sometimes obviously fake comments are taken as truth.
You know some people say Mary (mother of Jesus) was raped by a priest, as a young girl. Hence the "divine conception". You could be uncomfortably close to historical truth.
What is the name of your religion and how can I make sure my loved ones never join it?
That would be the Prosperity Gospel, the one true Gospel penned by the LORD himself, and etched into our very minds! God's approval is directly tied to your wealth - it is entirely possible for you to pay your way into Heaven! And that's not even getting into the Earthly pleasures of being one of God's favored!
Such is why Epstein was smited by the hand of God when he turned his back on God’s light. No treason shall be tolerated in the eyes of the LORD.
And the LORD will also make sure the guards are asleep and the recordings are erased at just the right time so that none may witness the the LORD'S justice and have proof, because one must have faith and proof denies faith.
That's not remotely surprising, but I would like to know how many Democrats voted no.
None. All 4 Democrats on the committee voted in favor. It wasn't a floor vote, it was an amendment to a crypto bill in committee.
Since it was the kiddie diddler supporters were going to vote against to block the bill, I'd be surprised if any Democrat switched votes cause there was nothing to gain from doing so.

The Big Beautiful Bill also bundled a bunch of unrelated things, and that still got GOP votes.
Well of course they did. They're all on the list. So are their donors.
Most people do not follow the minutia of government and will not even know any of this happened.
Every Democratic candidate should make that a specific focus of their campaign marketing - that their opponent voted AGAINST releasing the Epstein Files, juxtaposed with any statements they may have made demanding that they be released.
And if it's an incumbent Democrat, claim that their opponent is a vicious hard core MAGA, and they definitely would have voted for against the release.
Sometimes I wonder if the one voter just didn’t get the memo how their team was voting. Like bro just go with it like you meant to do it.
In situations like this where it clearly won't matter, I've always seen it as basically a token vote that they pass around to whoever's turn it is. Everybody on the team gets a few votes throughout their term where they can vote against something that will pass anyway and then they can turn around later when their constituents are mad about whatever and just say "but remember? I voted against that thing you hated!"
I could of course be completely wrong but it just seems like the math just barely works out in the majority party's favor way too much to be a coincidence.
Which one?
