Trump is probably on the list, so he has to protect that. The Democrats had it during their entire presidency; even if they didn’t want turmoil during their time in office, they could have released it after their presidential defeat and before Trump took office.
It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it. And the whole club is on the list.
Mutually assured destruction is my likely guess. If the list came out, I imagine there would be massive casualties on both sides.
Good. They should be destroyed.
That’s kills me inside…like I grew up being told, “Don’t cover for your friends if they do something stupid.” I learned that includes things like rapes and assault, or child molestation or anything that proves they are not a good person.
How is it that so many people in power don’t have that type of mentality? How is it that somehow none of em, not one, has the balls to actually stand up and say, “A, B, ans C have done this and this and that.”
I’m lost for words on how to describe my feelings towards the Democrats that let this through.
Because information is power. They can use knowledge of another’s wrongdoings to buy support for things.
You need to stop seeing them as different groups.
For the same reason Republicans haven’t released the Epstien client list. Many of them and their donors are on the list.
The obvious answer is that the Clintons are heavily implicated, but in a more general sense, the point of blackmail is to extort someone into doing something on the condition that you don’t release the blackmail. That’s why they got Epstein to connect with so many academics, celebrities, and other public figures. If they were to just release the blackmail, it would lose intelligence agencies all their leverage.
The boring answer: criminal investigative files generally aren’t released, so they’re compiled in a way that mingles information about victims with information about suspects and witnesses and others potentially involved in criminal activity, intentionally or unwittingly, directly or tangentially.
If you want to export a list of all names in the files, you’ll want to filter out victims for sure, and probably mere witnesses. You definitely don’t want to out informants and make them vulnerable to retaliation.
So most law enforcement agencies simply will keep everything secret. The idea of releasing names from the file was unusual, and it’s not surprising that Trump’s own people refused to follow through, especially when it’s highly likely that Trump was in that list of names.
Because many of them are probably in it too. While they play to hate each other. In the words of George Carlin, " They are all in a club and you will Never be a part of it."
Because wealthy and powerful degenerates on both sides of the aisle are on the list.
The same reason every politician and government will never release them, because they are trying to protect themselves or someone else. As long as money and power remain the only things politicians care about this will never get released. And I find it absolutely infuriating that these people will always prioritize reputations over the literal r*ping of children. There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of people just blatantly getting away with it because apparently every single elite is in on it.
Only war is class war.
