Epstein's Revenge

Don’t be alarmed by that giant crrrracking sound! It’s merely the wall around the Epstein documents crumbling down around the ankles of the current Administration. What started with three single incriminating emails leaked from Democrats in Congress continued with 20,000 emails released from the Epstein estate. It’s only a matter of time before the whole cache is turned over. That’s the thing about information, especially info this sick and tawdry; it will always come out. Nothing remains a secret forever. The only question is whether it comes out in time to do something with the contents.

No matter what the official spin is, this is bad news for the president, because he is literally all over the emails.

It’s funny how the official story has bounced around like an old Super Ball in a crawl space. We’ve seen:

·         Trump running on a platform to release all Epstein files

·         Claiming to release the files with much fanfare, except it’s all material that was already public

·         The Attorney General said the files are on her desk for review

·         The AG then said there is no list, and all material shows there is nothing actionable or illegal

·         The president called the whole thing a “Democrat hoax” (just like every other piece of bad news he’s ever heard).

·         The Speaker of the House refused to swear in a legally elected Representative for over 40 days, solely because she would be the last vote needed to pass a resolution requiring the release of the documents.

·         And now, with a hoard of evidence showing that every preceding statement was a load of rubbish, the AG says what’s in there proves the president hasn’t done anything wrong.

I’m not sure what planet she’s from, but a basic reading of just those first three emails shows that TFG was up to his eyeballs in teenage girls. They show he knew about it, he participated in it, and we can all see from his Administration’s actions, they’re actively covering it up. Additional documents show that there’s a case for financial malfeasance that’s just as serious as all the jailbait rapey stuff. Millions of dollars went in one side and emerged, freshly laundered, from another.

Do you notice how the go-to remark from TFG is that he did “nothing wrong?” He rarely says “I’m innocent,” or “I didn’t do that,” he says he did “nothing wrong.” I think he’s leaning on the famed “Costanza Defense,” where on Seinfeld, George utters the immortal line,

I’m sure that for all of these sexual crimes of which he’s been accused, he really believes he didn’t do anything wrong. Why? Because being him, he deserves the adulation and compliance of any woman he chooses. He only took what was coming to him. Hence, it’s not wrong.

Now, I don’t know how that would hold up in court, but he can try to make the case that he didn’t know such actions were wrong. It would be de facto admitting he doesn’t know how to be a human being, but I don’t think he cares much about that. I’m sure he thinks he’s above human decency.

We also have Russia coming into it, as Epstein apparently lent his expertise to the Russians on how to handle his friend Donald.

So now, the next brainstorm from the White House is to order the Justice Department to investigate the Epstein Files for evidence against the Clintons and other Democratic opponents.

I’m sure that by mentioning the banks, he’s counting on them to finance his defense, if not go on the attack themselves.

Obviously, any Administration with a moral compass would say, “Investigate everything and pursue lawbreakers.” But that’s not how these guys work. They look at Justice as their own personal legal team, obligated to defend all of their wrongdoings and prosecute opponents at every opportunity, including ones they made up out of thin air.

And they keep saying, “What if Clinton or Obama is in there?” They can’t fathom that we Democrats are overwhelmingly on the side of: “If they committed the crime, they can do the time.” We don’t tolerate shit-heels on our side. Where Republicans defend to the death every party leader in legal jeopardy, Democrats vote them off the island.

As for the fabled Congressional Resolution to release the files, it looks like the House will vote Aye, and the Senate may as well. There’s definitely the feel of rats fleeing the Titanic, because when this is eventually over, those defending the pedophiles are going to look very bad for making that possibly career-ending choice.

And if, somehow, both houses of Congress pass the bill, it has to be signed by Exhibit A, who will never do that. At least not without somehow scrubbing and destroying material that implicates him. It may or may not be successful, but he’ll try. He’ll never just cooperate. It’s against his DNA to comply with prosecution or accept blame for this or anything. So the big question will be whether there are enough votes in the Senate to overturn the veto. And again, there just may be, especially if there are continued leaks that condemn the president.

The wild card may be the Epstein estate. There’s a good possibility that they haven’t turned over everything. They may have even more damaging stuff, like photos and videos, showing the Orange Turd in action. Sure, TFG will fight about authenticity, but if the material is real, independent verification will confirm it. AI productions leave tracks and metadata. There would be something visceral about actually seeing a grown-ass man rubbing shoulders (and whatever) with 14-15-year-old girls, who, no matter what Megyn Kelly says, are still children. I think that could erode the support of most of the remaining holdouts, who may then join the rest of the conscience-bearing American people and seek to toss this clown out on his ass.
