Trump's list gonna be like

Barack Obama
Michelle Obama
The Obama kids whatever they're fuckin' called
Their shitty little dog
That asshole guy who made the diaper blimp

All of them were on that island fucking kids with Epstein until Trump saved the kids and gave them new mommies and daddies and everyone clapped and loved him.
The end.

[-] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 1 points 1 day ago

I'm surprised he hasn't already tried this line of defence. "I'm on the list because I was saving the kids! My name's only on there because I was on Epstein's list of enemies!"

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago

then the question becomes, why did you pardon this woman who trafficked children to be used as sex slaves?

[-] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 day ago

Because she's very sorry for what she did and she promised to never do it again and she redeemed herself by tattling on these just-so-happen-to-be political enemies of trump, the end. Isn't that beautiful?

[-] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

republicans suddently okay with rehabilitation, but only if they are willing to bootlick

[-] uriel238 10 points 1 day ago

We expect this. Angry MAGAs expect this, so if this happens no one would believe her.

Also Trump has zero respect for women, even Maxwell. He may not pardon her even if she does a performative confession. And she knows this.

[-] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

But once she's pardoned, she can say whatever she wants

Trump can't revoke her pardon

[-] brown567@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 day ago

Yeah, but then she might kill herself

[-] D_C@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago

She'll probably stab herself 6 times in the back, then shoot herself in the head 3 times just to make sure.

[-] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

She should definitely stay away windows in tall buildings

[-] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

I'm not so sure. Maxwell is in a tighter spot than people realize.

She either has to name all. Or name none at all. Because the ones not named won't let her live. Not holding that kind of leverage over their heads. And if she flips on anyone. She'll flip on everyone. Or at least that's my thinking.

[-] Geobloke@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

100% and I'm sure that anyone named probably knows a few others on the list and won't go down without dragging every one else

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

the ones she named that can be verified, will want her gone as well, or they will go scorced earth and name names that are on the list, granted they dont have the documents themselves, but if they have been in the same places as the people on the list they would have some kind of record of them being there.

[-] LadyAutumn 8 points 1 day ago

Its not really a matter of him doing it. Its a matter of how long his government can withstand constant mounting pressure to do so. And how long until someone in the administration cracks and leaks them. Bondi honestly doesnt seem like she can handle this forever.

There's a real part of me that thinks he might not plan to come back from Scotland. A delusional hope that maybe he sees the writing on the wall as his own politicians turn against him, knowing that conclusive proof that he is a child molester will likely become public soon. And his usual waffling about hoaxes and treason just isnt sticking, not even close. Every single choice he has made in the past 2 weeks has made things worse.

"I swear every transgenderist and drag queen went through pedo Island and every immigrant knew Epstein I swear"

[-] nieminen@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I'm pretty sure Congress just forced a vote to subpoena the unredacted files, they need to be delivered within 30 days.

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago

The admin has been ignoring roughly 1/3 of court orders. I wonder if this'll be the one that pushes things to an inflection point.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Wake me when this actually happens and they don't simply ignore it like they have been for most everything else. Hard to enforce rule when the ones you're up against control the methods of enforcing those rules.

[-] rauls5@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

You can’t subpoena that which has been destroyed.

[-] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Nah trump won't release anything. republicans and establishment democrats both doesn't want them released. I bet the Biden Admin kept a copy of the original list and would release the full list as a form of Mutually Assured Destruction in case republicans released a partial "Maxwell's list".

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

I think the MAD is viable insurance, but also a campaigning tactic for democrats in the future. but also dont want to harm potential dem politicians or megadonors as well.

[-] brianary@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

There's a lot of hope being pinned on the probably uncorroborated testimony of a coconspirator being questioned by agents of a prime suspect. I have a hard time seeing either side accepting anything that comes out of it.

[-] tylerkdurdan@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

didnt she just get offered 'limited immunity' by DOJ? whole world: Pikachu face

[-] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

She's 60 with a 20yr sentence. Immunity doesn't matter since she's already incarcerated. She's dying in prison, Unless she gets a presidential pardon.

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 1 day ago

Sounds kinda like the Röhm-Putsch.

[-] uriel238 2 points 1 day ago

Been wondering when the long knives were going to come out.

Liberal wonks are noticing Trump got passed all the stuff the oligarchs want, and Vance is Thiel's minime finger puppet.

But then Knitting Cult Lady observes cults of personality don't trade leaders easily unless it's set up well in advance, and MAGA went from a cult-of-idea (Post-Reagan republicanism, which is white-power conservatism) to a cult of personality (Trump) which is unusual. You can't fix Pandora's jar here.

So a lot of the 2025 bingo squares are in play.

[-] omgboom@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 day ago

This is absolutely true. Bill Clinton is sweating rn

[-] Geobloke@aussie.zone 2 points 1 day ago

Which doesn't really help him, as his base won't be happy until he releases the files

[-] zbyte64@awful.systems 4 points 1 day ago

Let's be real, his base will be so happy if Maxwell names Clinton as a client that they will forgive him for being a pedo.

[-] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago

Naive to think they won't simply fall in line. Dump is gonna jingle some keys, the idiots will forget everything, and go right back to their blissful, bigoted ignorance.

[-] Geobloke@aussie.zone 1 points 1 day ago

I'm not so sure, a lot of people have skin (money) in the game of unlocking these files

[-] JusticeForPorygon 4 points 1 day ago

So other than Bill Clinton who are we thinkin

[-] athairmor@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Dershowitz, probably. Too old and not useful enough to protect. Bill Gates, maybe. Prince Andrew.

Trumps problem is that whoever gets fingered might have receipts of their own.

Maybe, they’ll just release names of people who are already dead and hope anyone they left behind can’t prove anything or won’t try.
