At this point it's up to him to prove he isn't in there.

If Mike Johnson made sure all the Epstein files got released and he wasn't in them that would totally embarrass me.

He's a pawn of the plutocracy and we're living in a capitalist state.

The Paleocons and the Libertarian Techbros have been saying for a long while now that we're the traitors. That was a big part of the Hegseth speech at Quantico.

Yeah because there is no corruption in non-capitalist states.

It's just pure corruption.

Corruption is an inevitability of human nature, but the particular variety of capitalism practiced in the US is pretty much defined by corruption, short term thinking, and general stupidity. The capitalism practiced 1700s wasn't nearly as idiotic.

Wherever there is great property there is great inequality. For one very rich man there must be at least five hundred poor, and the affluence of the few supposes the indigence of the many. The affluence of the rich excites the indignation of the poor, who are often both driven by want, and prompted by envy, to invade his possessions.

~ Adam Smith, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

The scale has changed, but the human impulses remain largely consistent.

Yeah and all the rest of these assholes blocking release of the Epstein files and covering for trump.

With MTG's post saying she's not suicidal and not going to kill herself and suspect someone if she is killed.

I frankly feel that an actual feasible event that may happen is. If they cannot get someone to flip. A mysterious shooter will take out one of the R's on the side of releasing the files... he won't be caught, but he will leave a nice manifesto saying he's trans and a far left person.

A mysterious shooter will take out one of the R’s on the side of releasing the files…

No shortage of people with guns eager to claim a scalp. But it doesn't seem like any of these folks are particularly mysterious. They're all wearing their politics tattooed on their foreheads.

-Republicans LITERALLY!

Goddamn, those republicans really really like pedophiles and human trafficking. They are just ruthless in their efforts to cover for pedophiles and human traffickers. What’s up with that?

Yes. Just before a shutdown again he called a recess early to avoid the Epstein files being released.
