The Divine Sarah has an opinion about the Epstein thing, and it makes a great deal of sense. The biggest part:
“No, it is not actually credible that Trump was ‘in the Epstein list’ because if he had been, the Biden DOJ who had control of that list would have published it or at least published that bit of it, with corroboration, instead of going after washed up socialites and media personalities oh, and porn actresses to try to smear Trump.”
That makes a great deal of sense. Of course, assuming that if such a list even existed — and maybe it did, or maybe it was all in Epstein’s (now-deceased) head, or maybe it used to exist and was so incriminating for a whole bunch of Democrat bigwigs that the Democrat-controlled FBI destroyed it and all its supporting evidence during the arrest and search (which took place, lest we forget, in 2019).
Equally germane to the whole “Epstein coverup” is that the loudest voices now screaming for Bondi’s removal and ritual beheading are either extremist MAGA nutcases or rabid lefties like Keith Olberman.
Why would the Left suddenly be calling for the removal of Trump’s attorney-general?
I dunno, but here’s one reason:
The Department of Justice and the FBI have been quietly building a major criminal conspiracy case targeting the Deep State’s decade-long effort to derail Donald Trump. According to Solomon, the scope of the investigation could finally deliver the accountability that many in the MAGA movement have long demanded.
Now that’s a bigger deal than a pedophile’s little black book that may or may not exist.
Look, I don’t like the fact that the Epstein files were on Bondi’s desk (by her own admission) and it turned out that they were just a big nothingburger.
And I’ll also buy the fact that Epstein may well have killed himself, with the absolute assistance of corrupt criminal officials (surveillance video turned off, the guards “on break”, etc.), because that’s how things work in a corrupt Democrat bureaucracy.
Frankly, I’m more interested that these assholes get to wear prison jumpsuits:
…than a bunch of wealthy or politically-active assholes who liked shagging young girls. Both would be good, I agree; but if forced to pick one group, I’d pick to one containing Brennan, Comey and McCabe et al.
And if it were to turn out that the Clintons were involved in that criminal conspiracy — and I’m not taking bets they weren’t — we’d most likely be getting a twofer, given the likely intersect.
Speaking of a real MAGA issue being more important than Epstein, there’s also this one:
The Supreme Court delivered an opinion last week that not even the best of the punditry class was prepared to understand. The decision was Trump vs. CASA, and the topic concerned the nationwide injunction against Trump’s management of U.S. immigration policy. As with more than 40 other cases, federal district judges have intervened to stop the president from exercising executive powers.
The opinion could not be plainer: “Universal injunctions likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has given to federal courts.” That principle applies not only to this case but to the whole panoply of cases that have tethered the ability of the president to manage executive branch operations. The courts have presumed authority over the president that the Constitution plainly does not grant.
I would suggest that the whole Epstein argy-bargy is a sideshow compared to the above two issues, and it’s them we should be going after. Yeah, maybe Bill Clinton was an Epstein client / accomplice; but that he may have escaped justice (for the umpteenth time) is just an irritation, not a critical problem.
A runaway Deep State and an obstructive (and un-Constitutional) judiciary are far more important matters — and that the Trump Administration is dealing with them is more important for our nation’s future than some crowd of foul kiddie-diddlers against whom we have little evidence anyway.
Sucks, but that’s the reality of the thing.
