The Epstein File

Hats off to Bondi and staff. In just a few months they were able to track down all these leads and prove them to be false, as hard as that is for any claim that person X did thing Y. Damn they’re good. Can’t imagine the amount of manpower they must have dedicated to the task.

@jon-nyc just curious, have you ever seen anybody other than yourself make the claim that the Biden DOJ would not have gone after Trump if there were actionable evidence against him in those files? I’ve never seen that claim anywhere else, but you’re generally not one to go out on limbs. So I guess you may have seen it somewhere.

@jon-nyc said in The Epstein File:
Actionable evidence of crimes? Of course they would have.
I wouldn't presume to paraphrase you in a way you'd accept as not a strawman, but somewhere between "actionable evidence of crimes" and "sufficient evidence that a non-trivial investigation could plausibly lead to actionable evidence of crimes", is a line over which you've claimed the Biden admin would not have crossed. And those who think otherwise have become accustomed to government corruption due to Trump.
But I know that's a straw man.

Surely it’s now a settled question that the Garland DoJ wouldn’t leak just to embarrass Trump as it is now clear from what has been leaked by Congress or released by Bondi that there were plenty of embarrassing artifacts that the Garland DoJ didn’t in fact leak. Exhibit A would be the gross birthday letter.
As for whether they would have been extra aggressive in investigating or charging Trump again we have actual investigations to point to, which were handled very conservatively to the point of there having been complaints that they were being slow walked. It seems to me that, regardless of what the White House political team might have wanted, Garland wanted to see himself as among the long line of AGs that put themselves above partisan politics. He in fact conducted more investigations against Biden family members that Trump family members which surely you’ll concede that anything analogous to that would be inconceivable under the current regime.
The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.
