Bro literally closed the government and refused to swear in an elected representative just to prevent the vote on it. Then he says this.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

"We have nothing to hide", says 8 year old standing in front of 'no girls allowed' sign.
I'm sure the government was closed this long to give them time to scrub many of the files. There's a reason they're now all fine with releasing them.
So you're going to vote to release them, right? Right?
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Says the guy with a sub-basement full of murdered twinks.
Couldn't imagine what a sub-basement would look like so I tried imagining the opposite. A dom-basement. I need some sleep.
Do you just spam that in every thread now?
Or do you legitimately think talking about the Epstein files is a distraction from the Epstein files?
I'd say anything that isn't a tangible move towards releasing them is distraction. So yes, just saying there's nothing to hide is a pathetic deflection. Especially from someone in a position to make some very large and meaningful progress on the release.
Tuesday. The vote is Tuesday.
“We have nothing to hide and it’s the democrats who are evil!!”
So it’s in your best interest to release the files, then, right? Your base wants it, many elected you on the promise of seeing these things released even, and it would be great evidence against your enemies.
“No, we are not going to release the files.”
Hmmmmmm
So they're done removing Trump and other Republican references, cause that's what I'm reading between the lines.
Then. Release. Them. To. Shut. Us. Up. If. This. True.
…the President has said that the two men fell out prior to Epstein’s convictions.
…tells us only that he didn’t sever ties because of the bad optics.
Epstein didn’t become a child exploiter when he was convicted. There’s documented evidence and witness testimony of him taking underage girls from Mar-a-Lago to his private island —which there is documented evidence of Trump having visited numerous times — where they were sexually abused.
I do say that I’m curious what they fell out over though. Did Epstein try to blackmail Trump? Vice versa?
They both tried to fuck over the other in a real estate deal.
The auctioneer actually talked about it, both tried to get him to break the rules of the auction in order to get a leg up, and both bad-mouthed the other to him.
Anyway Trump won, which Epstein took offense to, and then Epstein started poaching girls from Trump's properties.
Did you know that Trump had his own child sex trafficking organization separate from Epstein?
Look up Trump Model Management. It was only closed in 2017.
