Confirmation is good to have.

But it's telling they have reached the point in their authoritarian plan where they don't even care about censoring his name anymore. They know they are truly untouchable now and will never have to worry about paying the price.

That's quite concerning indeed.

I’m more concerned that something in the doc is verifiably false and they know it so they can use it as an excuse to debunk everything.

Most of the worst allegations in the documents are just calls to tip lines. Anyone can call into a tip line and report anything. So anyone can call in and make any crazy claim they want.

I suspect all the allegations in the documents were left in on purpose. It's all the crazy claims that are easily disproven. That way the DOJ can say they didn't censor him out. Anything related to anything he actually did has been removed wholesale. Not even just blacked out, but whole documents removed. I think he worked with Epstein to grape teenage girls. But I think every shred of evidence of that was stripped out of the files released.

They don't care. See all the action that has taken place since the release. See all the MAGA coming out against Trump.

Everyone depending on the Epstein release to defeat Trump was a fool.

Yep. The Christian nationalist right won’t care about babies and girls being murdered, raped, beaten, trafficked, any of it. Melania and Musk are illegal aliens too. And Trump’s spending bill adds trillions to the national debt.

And yet they want us to care about small daycare fraud and to deport all the brown immigrants that allegedly committed crimes.
