The negativity about Krasnov not releasing the files because of an ongoing investigation has been addressed by the new Epstein files bill.
"For anyone hoping to use 'ongoing investigations' as a reason to withhold Epstein files, please read the language of the bill," Tom Massie.
The excerpt he included in the post reads that the documents can only be delayed if they "would jeopardize an active federal investigation or ongoing prosecution, provided that such withholding is narrowly tailored and temporary."
Massie highlighted the phrase "narrowly tailored and temporary."
He then mocked Trump by deploying his oft-repeated phrase, "Thank you for your attention to this matter."
Sure Krasnov will fight this, let him, PedoGate will be in the news for months. democrats, along with their new found allies, can hammer the airwaves about Krasnov protecting pedophiles.
Do not underestimate the importance of controlling the narrative.
On a darker note, war with Venezuela will change the narrative, but then again, Krasnov's base is against war with Venezuela. Krasnov is losing his base.

A handful of Congressional Magats are not caving to Krasnov, an unknown number of unwashed Magats are criticizing Krasnov.
The way to save our democracy has started in earnest, get aboard the train.
Remember now, Krasnov ran on releasing the Epstein files, Pam Bondi held up fake folders of the Epstein files proclaiming that they will be released. Unwashed Magats are slowly finding out that they have been lied to.
Don't you feel a tremor in the force?

To that end to hope Trump does try to keep them sealed based on ongoing investigations. That'll just keep the erosion going.

(49 posts)If the files really had that in them then why would we have set on them for 4 years?
As usual, the coverup is worse than the crime.
I suspect what is in the files is that Trump had communications with Epstein well after their supposed falling out. The kind of things that don't show a crime, but expose lies and make people ask more questions. Trump wanted this to die and get out of the news cycle, but that wasn't going to happen. Instead now I suspect that they are already working on the damage control
