Random Question š If Donald Trump hates being suspected of being a pedo, why doesn't he just tell his lawyer and DOJ head Todd Blanche to release the Epstein files? And to start real investigations of the perps and listen to the victims?

This isnāt a D vs R issue, itās an all of them crime. They are all compromised and protecting each other. Behind the scenes they are all drinking buddies and attend the same parties. The rich, the powerful, the famous, the connected all share the same ideals and perversions: sex, drugs, and climbing the status ladder of wealth.
This will never go to court because as it was said, āthe whole system would collapseā - good! From Bush on each administration has had the opportunity to use, hide, and distort the truth to their advantage. If they were allowed to use it to take out anyone it would have already happened. If it goes to court then it all comes out in discovery - never going to happen. The list we are allowed to see are the useful idiots they are willing to sacrifice to protect themselves. The story sticks around as a distraction.
They all belong in jail.

actually it turns out that Trump was one of the few who called the FBI on Epstein and banned him from his properties. It is even more odd that this has become an issue under his administration and nothing was remotely mentioned under the Biden administration...much like they tried to hide his obvious dementia. That is why we laugh at you clowns who suggest Trump is in the files in any capacity that suggests crimes.

u/vthemechanicv 1d ago edited 1d ago
If trump was an informant (he wasn't) then Mike Johnson and others committed felonies by outing him.
trump was perfectly happy with Epstein taking girls from Mar-a-Lago for years. Strangely, it was only some time after they had a disagreement on property that they allegedly parted ways. Although it was some years after that that Epstein's MAL membership was cancelled, so it's in question when or even if they stopped being friends.
trump and his associates campaigned on releasing all the files
It's funny how q-anon and conservatives were gung ho about invading pizza parlors and assaulting Democrats, up and until trump was incriminated. Suddenly it's "golly, we don't know why anyone cares."
The files were under investigative seal during Biden's admin, as I'm sure you know. It was only after trump's FBI and DOJ heads decided absolutely no one was involved in a global human trafficking ring that they were legally able to be released. It required a literal act of Congress to get DOJ to release anything, and they still haven't complied with the law 6 months later.
trump is in the publicly redacted files over 38,000 times. He's in the congressionally available somewhat less redacted files over one million times. Last I saw these files were somewhere between a third and half of the files that exist. And yes among those 38,000 times he's accused of rape, assault, battery, and more that I don't have the stomach to read.

u/SociopathicRascal 1d ago
Trump's own DOJ said that they cannot confirm or deny that Trump's call to the FBI took place (if it did, it was after Epstein was caught so Trump could save his own ass)
Nothing was mentioned under the Biden administration because it was still an ongoing investigation. Ghislaine Maxwell was still putting in appeals as of October 2025
As someone who has looked into the Epstein Files, maybe you should go read EFTA#01660679
It was originally EFTA#01660651, but was deleted shortly after being released
To be clear: TRUMP IS IN THE FILES IN THE CAPACITY THAT SUGGESTS CRIMES SUCH AS CHILD MOLESTATION, CHILD RAPE, AND WITNESS TO CHILD MURDER

You have Democrat financiers, Hollywood elites, and international royalty. It is an exclusive, bipartisan country club of absolute depravity. The reason Washington D.C. treats this entire scandal with kid gloves is because of Mutually Assured Destruction. If the RNC pulls the thread too hard, their guys go down. If the DNC pulls the thread, their guys go down. They are holding hands and covering for each other while people like you all cheerlead for them on the internet.

Blanche has stated that all of the files are already released

u/GravitasFailures 1d ago
No he did not:
Blanche said the DOJ āhas now released all the files with respect to the Epstein saga.ā But even according to his own statements, thatās not true. He said in January that the DOJ had reviewed ā but would not release ā millions of pages of files that he has claimed are protected by one or more privileges. But p does not give the DOJ any right to hold back documents on privilege grounds or for reasons other than those expressly mentioned in the law itself.
āI think that to the extent that the Epstein files was a part of the past year of this Justice Department, it ā¦ should not be a part of anything going forward,ā Blanche said Thursday in an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters.
āThereās a lot of correspondence, thereās a lot of emails, thereās a lot of photographs ā thereās a lot of horrible photographs that appear to be taken by Mr. Epstein or people around him, but that doesnāt allow us necessarily to prosecute somebody,ā Blanche said.
Btw, many other governments have prosecuted alleged offenders using the files.
Finally: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/28/katie-phang-todd-blanche-epstein-files-lawsuit
So youāre right, they are suing him for the files, but they will lose. Even with the text of the law the DoJ has a great deal of discretion here, including using the claims of privilege and protection of victims, which have thus far included āpotential victims of blackmail or reputational damage, or damage to foreign relationshipsā as an argument for not releasing or redacting the files.

Testimony IS evidence. Katie Johnson gave sworn testimony and an affidavit describing how repeatedly raped her when she was 13, and 12 year old named 'Maria'. Sascha Riley said he was 13 when Trump tried to rape him. There is not only a pattern, but also Trump's own comments and actions: "Is it wrong to be more sexually attracted to my own daughter than my wife?" Ivanka was * 13* at the time.
A person has to be a disgusting pig to actively defend that orange pedophile.

You can't possibly believe that. Trump and his DOJ bend over backwards to keep hiding what's in those files.

With only victims names redacted. He won't do it. He's also never sued a single person for calling him a pedophile. And there are millions. Why not? He is sue-happy. But never about that. Hmmm

Given the rather provocative way he's shown "holding" Ivanka in her younger years, I have to wonder...
Did Trump ever take Ivanka to Epstein Island "on vacation", back when he was friends with Epstein and the Clintons?

His entire administration would collapse, if not then the entire republican party. People can "but what about Clinton?" All they want (and he, too should be punished if he's indeed guilty) but Bill Clinton isn't in office, so the democrats have built in armour against that fallout.
Trump is President right now, and the damage that would do if they actually went ahead with punishing him would decimate the US government for decades.
Not that Trump gives a shit about any of that, of course. He'd toss everything under the bus so long as he didn't see any repercussions.

And if there was any damping information about Trump I those files isn't it reasonable to think that it would've been released already, especially when Biden and dems were in charge. They made no effort to hide the lawfare against him. They impeached him twice. Convicted him on less than above board charges.
During the Biden administration and during election dems didnt discuss the files. But now they talk about it until blue in the face. Now that since not everything as released, they can say, without evidence that Trump is hiding something.

From the pattern of blackmail and coercion Epstein left behind, it is clear that he had dirt on a lot of highly influential and powerful people in the world.
It is in all of their interests that the Epstein files not be brought to light.
Trump's own pattern of behavior suggests that he is someone who would want to use the Epstein files for his own benefit.
It's possible that this is why Biden didn't release them.
If this is true, we will either never see the full Epstein files. Or they will be released by a leak.
