Remember when Ted Lieu said the Epstein files show Trump raped and threatened to kill children?

Then it all just stopped. That evil scum is holding Iran hostage to keep those files concealed.

1. Really harsh and taboo subjects are difficult to navigate in public

even without the politics. Adverse fallout, fear, hysteria .... without evidence from the real Epstein files, I think they took it about as far as it can go right now.

2. Tape is the ending

You would too if you did what the tapes show trump doing to little girls.

For rapist it's pleasure when someone acknowledges your power over them crying, begging, screaming, pleading as their life is squeezed

out of them. It's not the sex climax it's total submission ,like what the country is experiencing now.

Why has the FBI held the tapes 8 years after the law requires them to be turned over for to us to see ??????

Nixon tripped on the tape wire ,trump's next.

From The Independent:

Journalists at Channel 4 News, a U.K. broadcaster, viewed internal emails that showed federal investigators anticipated processing between 20 and 40 terabytes of data taken from Epstein’s properties.

In 2020, investigators estimated the files totaled up to 50 terabytes, while in 2025, officials wrote that they were “looking at approximately 14.6 terabytes of archived data.”

One of them got a lawyer and was going to court until she got so many death threats that she backed out.

The other little girl's name was Maria, she simply disappeared.

5. the MSM really does NOT want to talk about the president being a pedophile rapist, period.

FFS they barely want to talk about his other glaring problems.

Republicans certainly don't want to talk about it.

I suspect some dems even think it's too icky to talk about.

Main problem is the Epstein Files cover-up has worked very well to shield Dump from the worst.

Rep. Ted Lieu Claims President Trump is Accused of Raping Children in the Epstein Files

Vice Chair of the Democratic Caucus Ted Lieu (D-CA) tells reporters the Epstein files contain allegations that President Trump raped and threatened to kill children. He says House Republicans are trying to "distract" from those allegations by seeking testimony on Epstein from former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. He also says the Justice Department "violated the privacy" of victims by failing to redact some explicit images from the files and that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche should resign.

IT.

IS.

CHILD.

MURDER.

The oceans and the deserts hold multitudes of secrets.

If video surfaces showing Trump raping girls, he won't go quietly, he'll barricade himself in his ballroom bunker and go nuclear. I hope I'm wrong.

I do think there is a certain percentage of people who think it is too outrageous to believe. The easy way out is to just say it's political.
