Is this new investigation by doj involving

[johnnyfins]

Epstein/Democrats deliberate so he/doj can say the files are part of an ongoing investigation? Sounds exactly like something he would do.

1. Yes, of course

I posted on this earlier today. It's an obvious scheme to create an "open investigation" so DOJ can have a legal pretext to refuse to release the Epstein files.

8. Didnt see your post. Great observation!!

The more eyes that see this topic, the better.

9. I mean. It shouldn't matter if they actually pass the law to release them.

Right?

11. At most, I would think they could only block the material directly related to th investigation.

That means, they could refuse to release stuff related to Clinton, but they couldn't block releasing the Trump stuff

14. Thats totally what I was thinking

If they are only investigating Democrats, doesnt that give them free reign over any files related to the GOP?

Like. Are these people even thinking this stuff through? Like at all?

2. Nailed it

3. Plus no press conference answers during an open investigation

4. Naturally

Also a slam at Democrats and "Crooked Hillary". Because of course she had something to do with it.

5. Great observation & an absolute GIVEN. Pathetically, transparently, blatantly, and all possible synonyms thereof

He should be FUCKING IMPEACHED for ordering the DoJ to do this (and this obviously isn't the first such case).



ANY other POTUS would be. This is a HIGH CRIME AND MISDEMEANOR if there ever was one.

6. The leaks are coming almost hourly, the Epstein scandal has legs, practically impossible to keep a lid on it now.

7. That's exactly it.

And perhaps a little more.

10. Why does the public need a law

to look at something a dead guy emailed or texted? PEDOPHILE PROTECTORS

12. I think the Democrats will continue to try to get as much material as possible from

the Epstein estate. The DOJ can't block Democrats from releasing that stuff, since the estate owns that material and would be explicitly giving permission to release it to the public.

13. The repugs can't plug all the holes in the dam.
