    sucks that they avoid accountability by doing this. but I totally want to see the DNC go down for sitting on the files for two years and letting fascism come back because it was a reliable campaigning ticket.

    like, the opportunity to prevent this the whole time was right there but dear lord help us if we ever cause any inconvenience to the Clintons. did you know they worked with Obama?

      You can’t both oppose fascism and oppose the only alternative to fascism, that’s just supporting fascism with extra steps. Trump was en route to being convicted again if Garland didn’t fuck up the expedited prosecution and if Trump weren’t reelected president despite his many crimes. I don’t think there is enough info in the files to charge anybody, maybe releasing the Epstein Files would have been a great move but hindsight is 20/20.

        “the only opposition to fascism”

        I’m not even going to acknowledge the notion that there was a lack of evidence to convict anyone. Even a passing knowledge of how the Epstein case played out will tell you everyone involved was just being protected. Usually by other pedophiles but sometimes by idiots too.
