    Tbh, I don’t understand why people keep posting it here. We already know. Its preaching to the choir and I’ve seen it one million times at this point. I hope people are posting it in places where it actually matters lool

      This is my only social media, so to speak, but irl I mention this any time someone starts talking about one of his distractions. I try not to be jerky about it, just a casual “that sounds like a distraction from the big pedofile list he is on”, that sort of thing.

      So yeah, it is kinda preaching to the choir, but I also tend to think of it as keeping this in the forefront of peoples minds. Everything he does is, on some level, a distraction from the Epstein documents he is named in. That seemed to be something he is truly afraid of being released. Even though most of us here already know, agree, and want the files released, the way our news cycle is, it’ll be forgotten in a month, I feel like that is what he is counting on. It worked pretty good in his first term, so I guess I’m just trying to keep this in everyone’s mind. Maybe it’ll make a difference, maybe it won’t.

        This is state legislators in Oklahoma, they have nothing to do with releasing files at the federal level.
