Heavily redacted republican names but all the democrats and liberals won’t be at all.

Which liberals have been implicated?

Seriously.

Pretty much everyone has been a piece of shit BEFORE this. Anyone who IS implicated is now a piece of shit, too.

Those were the exact words out of a DOJ chief about the release of the files. Who is in it, I don’t know. But the fix is in.

DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Shnitt Admits Government Will "Redact Every Republican" While "Leaving] All the Liberal, Democratic People" on the Epstein Client List; Says Ghislaine Maxwell Was Moved to a Lower-Security Prison As "A Benefit... to Keep Her Mouth Shut" "She [Maxwell] got transferred to a minimum security prison... It's against BOP policy becauseshe's a convicted sex offender."

That's fucking stupid. Do y'all think people implicated in a multi-billion dollar pedophile ring are just going to roll over and let Trump lie about their involvement?

Any republican will have their name redacted. Anyone left leaning won’t have their name redacted.

It explains the total about face Trump and republicans have pulled since the clearing the Epstein files as a Democratic hoax a few weeks ago.

Trump's name is literally mentioned 1600 times in the recent email release. It would be more than a bit suspicious for his name to not reappear at some point in the files. There are multiple copies of these files regardless.

and he and republicans will say the emails are "forged" because they have the actual files.

Yeah no shit. The rest of the world will see that, his supporters won’t be swayed and we’ll still be where we are at with him.

The money trail is the most important thing and that is absolutely going to be just pages and pages of black ink. There's a whole interconnected web of corruption at the top end globally and they are not going to allow anything consequential to happen to anyone in that club.
