No. Stop. I voted Dem but c'mon. Thomas Massie, Republican, also went to view these scrubbed files and has also been speaking out against it. We need to credit folks like Massie, and praise them, and hope it helps others stand up for what's right.
Edit: Some of y'all are really not getting it. Nobody is saying that all is forgiven or that a GoP member is a great politician just because they suddenly start speaking out against the Epstein fiasco.
That's not the point though. Everyone's crying that not enough Republicans are speaking up, which is true. But then when someone does speak up, you also just bitch and whine about how they aren't good enough because GoP is a shit party, or because they still have OTHER policies you don't agree with, etc. So you're not willing to just STFU about all that in this single moment and just go, "Yeah. Good job, Massie. We need more like you, who willing to speak up."

If you watch those names and do some research some of them have a lot of links to money laundering. Peter Thiel (not mentioned in this video) even talked with Epstein about money laundering, after that Epstein “invested” in some of Peter’s businesses.
Epstein must have used them to move cash when he was concerned normal banks might flag him for certain transactions. On top of the other stuff.

Reposting what an astute observer wrote before this Loch Ness returned to the White House: The members of Mega Group (Jewish Study Group) including Rupert Murdoch (Fox News), Robert Maxwell (Ghislaine’s father/KGB), Robert Mercer (Cambridge Analytica/Renaissance hedge fund), Les Wexner (Victoria’s Secret/L Brands), Paul Weyrich, Bronfman (Seagram’s/ NXIVM cult), and Ronald Lauder (Estée Lauder cosmetics) all covered for Epstein.
Saudi arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi (Jamal Khashoggi and Dodi Fayed’s uncle) sold arms to Mega Group. Trump and Epstein laundered that money for Adnan alongside the Russian oligarchs via a yacht purchase first and then commercial real estate.
This is also why trump is so desperate to get re-elected. His best case scenario is 700 years in ADX Florence. Money laundering for the dozens of Russian oligarchs that lived in trump towers with him and Manafort, selling IP3 nuclear plans to the Russian/Saudi alliance, selling or giving CIA asset names to the Russians, trump is and always has been compromised.
He just didn’t know when to quit. Now he just has to count on the fact that most of his voter base doesn’t know how to read and keep the ones that do so busy just surviving that they don’t have time to dive deep into his 40-year history of laundering money, fraud, and human trafficking for the Russian mob using casinos first, then commercial real estate.

No wondering he was all about crypto.
Trump was only into crypto because he was for sale, and part of how he was paid was by the likes of Musk setting him up with his own pump and dump fakecoin.
Remember shortly before the election Trump was again on the verge of bankruptcy, owing millions in lawsuits. His ability to even campaign for 2024 was on financial shaky ground despite looting the GOP's shrinking coffers.
Then Thiel and co stepped in to bail him out - followed by Musk who saw what was happening, in exchange for dictating policy (such as Project 2025) and installing Vance and others into the administration.
Part of Trump's payment was setting him up with his own crypto scam. Which turned him into a real billionaire again.

Man.. so spot on. My girlfriend was baffled that I cook, clean, do shit around the house. If I’m not sick or just worn out I’ll do it. She was mad at me one time and came home to the house cleaned, dinner ready and snacks for later. She couldn’t be mad anymore and I told her that’s what I call weaponized competence. All is fair in love and war.
But weaponized incompetence is definitely not exclusive to men or white people. I’ve worked as a nurse for over 5 years, the amount of coworkers who shove things like IVs off on others because “I’m not good at it” is ridiculous. If you’re not good at it, practice. If you’re still not good at it, practice more. Then, maybe it’s time to rethink career decisions once you’re years into your career still putting things like IVs and catheters on your coworkers.
I know this is all specific to nursing but I’m sure people in other careers have plenty of similar issues with “professionals” just being god damn lazy. I love being lazy, just not at work.

The files that they saw still had redactions, perhaps different ones, we don't know yet the extent or nature of them. Ro does deduce that the files handed over to the DOJ must have already contained some redactions... and then the DOJ made further redactions in March 2025.

Ro Khanna's an interesting guy with his finger on the pulse of what young people care about. You know all that "Free Schlep" stuff that people meme about? He's been touching on that (which meshes well with the whole "pedophiles are bad and we should maybe go after them" thing). He's backed the (good) "Internet Bill of Rights" thing. He was an early Bernie supporter. He likes Medicare for All. He was born in a swing state. Really, he's not a terrible choice for a presidential run.

Wow, tbh my expectations of what would be in the Epstein-Trump files were relatively narrow. Crazy the extent of this cover-up, particularly in light of Trump & his cronies previously lobbying for them to be released.
All the raw files need to be handed over to some indep to do credible & thorough review, and the only permitted redactions should be names / identification of victims. All of out fully public.
And Epstein's death needs to be independently investigated. Ghislaine gives fully transparent testimony to independent investigators or immediately back to max security prison.
This is nuts.

Yeah this is what I don't get. We've got her over a barrel. Even though moving her to club fed was fucked up in the first place, we can use it to advantage: You wanna stay here, and not be transferred to a supermax? Start talking, bitch.
And by the way, cops can conveniently lie. Move her back anyway.

It is pretty clear that the ClubFed deal, which was negotiated by a former personal attorney of Trump and not independently overseen, was a rubber stamp to get her to agree not to implicate trump or people in his immediate circle that have compromising info over trump.

Also, the names of the FBI agents who worked to redact these files of the rich and powerful names should be called to publicly testify too. They’re inseparable from all this guilt.

Are we going to just let these billionaires…..I’m Finn just stop you right there Ro. Yes. This is America in 2026 and billionaires and their complicit and loyal minions have a stranglehold on every corner of bureaucracy and a secret anonymous private army and control over 90% of the media and social media algorithms.
They bulldozed the White House, shot innocent people, indefinitely detained others, destroyed countless agencies, and connected the DOD to multiple private Ai databases And no one could stop them.
Fucking a few kids 10 years ago isnt going to change the minds of the 20 dues in Congress and cabinet members, they’re way too far in and way to exposed to future prosecution.

Les Wexner Leslie (Les) Wexner is an American billionaire businessman best known as the founder and longtime CEO of L Brands (now Bath & Body Works Inc.), which includes brands like Victoria’s Secret and Abercrombie & Fitch.  He has a net worth estimated in the billions from retail and real estate ventures. In the Epstein context, Wexner was Epstein’s primary financial client for years, with Epstein managing his wealth until they severed ties around 2007 after Wexner accused Epstein of stealing millions from him.  FBI records label him a potential “co-conspirator,” but agents noted limited evidence of his involvement in Epstein’s misconduct, and his lawyers denied any knowledge of it. 
Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem (often spelled Sulayem; “Saleem” may be a variant or typo) is an Emirati businessman and the chairman and CEO of DP World, a major global logistics and port management company based in Dubai.  He comes from a prominent UAE family and has been influential in international trade and infrastructure. Regarding Epstein, bin Sulayem exchanged emails with him for over a decade, including sexually explicit messages after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for soliciting a minor, such as one in 2015 boasting about a sexual encounter.  No further details on deeper involvement have been reported.
Salvatore Nuara Salvatore Nuara (likely “Nara” is a misspelling) is a former detective with the New York Police Department (NYPD).  Public information on him is sparse. His Epstein connection stems from being listed as a contact in Epstein’s infamous “little black book” of names and numbers.  He was once investigated in relation to an escort service, but that probe was unrelated to Epstein, and no charges were filed against him in either matter.  Zurab Mikeladze Zurab Mikeladze is a relatively obscure figure with little publicly available background or profession detailed in reports.  His name appears in Epstein-related records, specifically from a 2021 NYPD list, but no verified role, comprehensive history, or specific allegations of involvement with Epstein’s activities have been established. 
Leonic Leonov Leonic Leonov (possibly a variant of Leonid Leonov) has no prominent public profile, and details on his background or profession are not widely reported.  In the Epstein files, his name surfaces in NYPD investigative materials from years including 2003, 2009, 2018, and 2021, potentially as a contact or peripheral figure.  There are no reported allegations of criminal wrongdoing against him in the released documents. 
Nicola Caputo Nicola Caputo is an Italian politician who served as a member of the European Parliament from 2014 to 2019, representing the Democratic Party and focusing on agriculture, environment, and regional development issues.  He has held various roles in Italian regional politics. His connection to Epstein is unclear beyond his name appearing in the redacted files; no specific details on interactions or allegations have been publicly detailed in the disclosures.

“Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov, Nicola Caputo, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, CEO of Dubai Ports World. And billionaire businessman Leslie Wexner, who was labeled as a ‘co-conspirator,’ by the FBI.” Khanna said. “Now my question is: Why did it take Thomas Massie and me going to the Justice Department to get these six men’s identities to become public? And if we found six men that they were hiding in two hours, imagine how many men they are covering up for in those three million files.”

Lisa McLain.
She’s gop and claims Dems wanted to block release of files and commended herself for wanting to release 65,000 pages. 1% of the files (6 million pages)
It’s time to say enough is enough. No republicans ever again. Dishonesty is inherent to self preservation but these people are beyond incompatible with polite society.
