The Trump administration has come under mounting pressure from the president’s make America great again (Maga) base to release files on the case, including a supposed list of Epstein’s influential clients.

Trump, in response, has variously dismissed the existence of such files or said they were invented by Obama and members of his administration, including James Comey, the former FBI director, and Joe Biden, vice-president in the Obama administration.

    There is no good reason why Mueller Report was forgotten in 2020. It said that Russian interference meetings with Trump (adoptions pretext) happened, but that sitting president could not be convicted of them. Biden/Garland election interference to keep Trump out of military jail in order to make the most neocon DNC candidates viable continuing the “stop Trump” election platform.

    Obama was president in 2016 and therefore everything he did or didn’t do was perfectly legal. That’s how it works now, right? Unless you want to talk about 2021?

    good, actually. this is what i want from the pussy ass democrats. I’m so sick of them watching from the sidelines already doing nothing while a republican cunt ravages through the world, bring warcrimes and devastation, only for a fuckass obama type to get elected with promises of change, and pardon said warcrimes to signal that next time they’re free to do it all over again. fuck you obama. i wouldn’t even be sorry if this went through, maybe you’ll see how it’s done. I’ll count it for obama’s own warcrimes anyway.

    fuck Biden too. “he’s a nazi. he’s a fascist! he’s an existential threat! oh here’s the keys to the country by the way.”

    disingenuous fucks. capitulators and collaborators. i hope Mamdani’s election will signal a new era and the geriatric party, proud defense force of the status quo, will burn to the ground.

    Aren’t the current and past Presidents immune from their actions while in acting position, according to the Supreme Court?

    He seems to be rather desparate when you see what ideas he is throwing around to distract from his close relationship to Epstein.

      Really? Is that a sentiment American liberals really hold? Do you mean from Democrat politicians or from the general populace?

      For the former, I think they’ve more than demonstrated their inability to hold anyone to account. From Biden nominating Obama’s milquetoast, consensus Supreme Court pick to Attorney General, who proceeded to seemly slow walk Donald Trump’s multiple federal prosecutions just long enough to make them all irrelevant and eventually dropped. To the current Congressional Democratic leadership who seem to think leadership is just empty gestures and who appear to have learned nothing from dealing with Republican obstructionism, when the shoe was on the other foot.

      After the last six month though, I do have faith in Trump ability to exact revenge on this enemies and to get away with things previously considered to be an egregious overreach or illegal.

      Do you honestly believe this? “The Americans” was a TV show.

      That’s probably the real problem with your country, you value entertainment over facts.
