Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) says the not-so-quiet part out loud. Really f*cking LOUD.

[Miles Archer]

With a vote on releasing files related to Jeffrey Epstein just days away, Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) said this weekend that it was clear President Donald Trump was “at the center of a child sex ring,” and that the president’s behavior over the past week made it clear that the files contained “something especially and specifically incriminating.”

“What we've already seen is immensely incriminating; clearly, Donald Trump was at the center of a child sex ring,” Murphy said, speaking over the weekend with The Bulwark Managing Editor Sam Stein during a panel. “That is heartbreaking that the president of the United States was involved in that kind of gross, craven immorality.”

“He is in daily panic mode as we get closer to the moment where these files and the fullest truth that we have available to us is going to be made public, and it is clearly the biggest scandal in presidential history,” Murphy said.

“...It stands to reason that he wouldn't be fighting so hard to spin against this story, or bullying Republicans in the House to prevent the release of these files if there wasn't something especially and specifically incriminating in that information.”

24. I'll go thirds

Wonder if he'll have a heart attack with the walls closing in? Or does his big genius brain believe he can
come out on top of everything so nothing bothers him?

Everybody is saying he should have one. Make Pedophiles Great Again!

[DBoon]

26. heart attacks can be induced by certain toxins

a heart attack is not invariably death by natural causes

[Farmer-Rick]

64. There is some correlation between cardiovascular disease

And asbestos exposure. Pedo Trump was exposed to asbestos when he tore down the east wing. He's probably still being exposed to it since no remediation was done. That asbestos is still floating around in the AC and heating units of the White House.

Normally it only floats around for about 72 hours but any slight breeze will have it floating around again. Every breath he takes his exposure levels go up.

[70sEraVet]

68. I'm sure RFKjr has found some studies....

That show that asbestos exposure improves the libido!

[buzzycrumbhunger]

30. I think he's more likely to stroke out.

The BIG one. He’s already had precursors.

Fingers crossed—though it would be nice if they’d simply impeach him and include his whole cabal in the punishment.

8. Keep shouting it!

Trump was “at the center of a child sex ring,” the files contain “something especially and specifically incriminating," the president was involved in "gross, craven immorality," it is "the biggest scandal in presidential history."

[Miles Archer]

9. We need to start monitoring one-way flights to Russia

Sure, like everything else in his life, he COULD get away with it.

Until he doesn't, right?

[Justice matters.]

22. It will be Saudi Arabia, as pedo the felon will host his new boss.

The butcher of Jamal Khashoggi will be in the OO Tuesday with his bribes.

[Traildogbob]

34. Good call.

That is exactly where they will feel at home. One wrong word in Russia and they will fly out windows or drink plutonium. Ole Pootie is as loyal as Trump.
Plus pootie may be going broke and Saudis eat cash like a salad.
Not so sure the population would be so welcoming of American Politicians. The 9/11 Saudis were just common citizens. They may wanna do some sawing themselves on those refugee American political leaders, that approve and send troops to carry out their orders of slaughtering Muslims, women and children.
Hopefully every nation will seal their porters to keep this scum out of their society.
Let em roam the dessert for 40+years. And eat their own cash to live.
Just an opinion of one.

[buzzycrumbhunger]

31. Nah...

He’s already paid off Argentina for the big escape.

[lastlib]

39. Any good graphic artists on here?

Visualize a big circle, with the words "Child Sex Ring" around the circumference, and the visage of the #1 Felon/Rapist in the center of it.

"At the center of a child sex ring." Who doesn't believe it now? He is calling it a hoax, which is all the more reason to believe it's true.

[PatSeg]

10. Exactly

He has let so many scandals just roll off his back, but this one is really scaring him. It could be even worse than we are imagining.

[NJCher]

13. but a lot of them didn't roll off his back

He flim flammed his way into the WH. When he's out of the presidency, those suits will be resumed. I am talking about suits like Jack Smith's.

[PatSeg]

15. Yes that's true

And I really think his third run for the presidency was primarily to avoid prison. Meanwhile, he's found numerous ways to enrich himself in the process.

I really have my doubts that he will live long enough to see those suits resumed, though there are plenty of others in his administration who are vulnerable and should make sure their passports are up to date.

[Grins]

11. Not hard enough!!! "Trump IS a child rapist."

Part of a sex trafficking ring doesn’t get to who this monster really is!!

[jaymac]

61. Katie Johnson

was 13 when she says trump raped her because she looked like Ivanka............whatever became of that suit?

[Upthevibe]

12. Miles Archer....

I saw him on CSPAN at a gathering/town hall. He was speaking truth to power for sure.

I've been saying for a while now that I can see Chris Murphy as a Presidential Candidate.

[Clouds Passing]

14. That's what a lot of people have been thinking, thanks for saying it out loud Chris.

[Bluetus]

16. This was not a "sex ring"

Sex was just the bait, and Trump has no shame about any sex. Sex with prostitutes. Sex with women he raped. Sex with his own daughter. He has no shame about any of that. That is NOT why he is panicked.

He is panicked because if we can get to the heart of this Epstein/Maxwell/Trump partnership, it will connect all the big dots for which we have already seen plenty of anecdotal evidence. Massive money laundering. Extortion. Selling of classified information. Working directly for our enemies. Having his businesses funded by the Russians. All these things come together with Epstein.

I can only hope that Murphy is not so naive as to think this is just about sex with some underage girls (which would be a huge scandal and tragedy for anybody else). I hope that Murphy has much more awareness of the full picture, but doesn't want to get ahead of his skis. I mean, Murphy should have a good idea of the extent of the FBI files, and should know that the bigger picture will be obvious if we can get the files in public.

[Raven123]

19. No, but MAGA accepts money laundering. Some don't accept sex trafficking.

Both are true, but go with what will exert the most pressure.

[Bluetus]

35. I don't think his panic is about losing MAGA.

I mean, the people who can bring him down are all the backstabbers he has surrounded himself with. The MAGA people just give him the appearance of power. Theil/Vance, Musk, Bannon/Miller, MTG and many others are all trying to get positioned for his fall. It is the curse of the tyrant. Everybody you depend on hates you, but fears you. When the moment comes, the knives will come out. That is what Trump is panicked about.

[llmart]

23. He's been extorting people and criminalling all his life...

those of us old enough to remember know that. But the public is more likely to dismiss something as "complicated" as his money schemes. But give them something salacious and sex/drug/trafficking of young girls will get the public talking around the water cooler on a daily basis, and the complicit legacy media will be forced to air it all or get left in the dust.

[Bluetus]

36. The public is never going to bring him down.

It is his "friends" who will do him in. They are only hanging around now because it is profitable for them and they want to be there when he falls to keep the spoils coming.

They all hate him, with the possible exception of Miller. He may be the only one in that entire cabal who is not in it for the money. He is a Nazi through and through. His interest in money is like Hitler's: to fund the dream. The rest of them are just grifters of the highest order.

[llmart]

37. The public votes and puts them in office.

If they think they stand to lose their cushy jobs in Congress, they'll throw Trump under the bus. Starting with MTG, they're getting out in front of the truth that's about to explode in the public forum.

[Escape]

43. Excellent angle, Bluetus...

They surely must hate him and hate having to serve him.

This is their big chance to escape from Trump Island.

Hope they flee quickly and en masse.

[Bluetus]

54. I think we'll have a much clearer picture this week with the roll call vote.

If it is only the 4 Republicans who signed the discharge petition, then Trump likely survives to 2028 and the files will never come out.

If 50 or more Republicans vote for release, then things could move quickly. You know they are all comparing notes like high school girls talking about prom dates. "Are you voting for release? I will if you will."

A number like 50 might be enough to get the Senate on board. It would certainly pump up the pressure.

A number closer to 100 could make it almost impossible for Trump to veto it. He would probably flip to saying, "Of course we're releasing the files. Just as soon as we have a blue ribbon commission go over every document to make sure we are redacting every detail that could hurt anybody (especially me)."

Personally, I think it is most likely that it will be just the 4 (Massie, Greene, Mace, Boebert). I hope I am way off. The Trump from a year ago wouldn't have lost those 4, but certainly would not lose any more than 4. So this will be an excellent gauge of Trump's hold on the GOP.

[travelingthrulife]

28. Yup. I want to see those business records. This has deep, deep international legs.

[jaymac]

62. yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!!

[OneGrassRoot]

65. That right there. n/t

[BattleRow]

52. I said almost verbatim the same thing a day or so ago

to an acquaintance of mine.
But you said it far more eloquently.

[Bluetus]

55. I want to believe those in front of cameras know this, but are just being extra-careful

Because, at this point, the big thing is to get the files into public, not to connect all the dots for the people.

25. Gross, craven immorality - yep. Our republic has become so profoundly materialistic, we don't really even have

a moral compass to speak of.

Maybe the release of these files can bring a bunch of disgusting pedophiles. Because of the King Charles can strip his brother of all title and so on over his involvement, then we need to clean house here. For sure.

[OldBaldy1701E]

66. Moral compasses get in the way of profits. So, we don't use them anymore. (n/t)

27. Sen. Chris Murphy should be Senate Majority Leader.

Sen. Chris Murphy should become our next Senate Majority Leader when the Democrats take back control of the senate.

33. Trump Is Acting Guilty

Therefore, he probably is guilty.

[Chasstev365]

38. Yep: The Sex Trafficing President

[yellow dahlia]

40. When Chris Murphy talks, I listen.

[NJCher]

41. point of confusion

I'm confused about Giuffre saying he always acted like a perfect gentleman, yet this post of Epstein's says trump spent 2 hours with (presumably) Giuffre. The only explanation can be that when she said he was a gentleman was before she spent the time at Epstein's house with trump.

Epstein email about her spending several hours at Epstein's house with Trump:

Link to email.

That email was sent to Maxwell by Epstein on 4/2/2011

When she said Trump always behaved like a gentleman would have been when? I did a search for the date but so far haven't come up with it.

[FakeNoose]

47. I don't believe Chump spent several hours with Virginia Giuffre

On the other hand, we don't know if there was another girl named Virginia? Of perhaps Epstein was mistaken on the identity of the girl that Chump was with? I can't explain it. But in Virginia's own words, she said she never saw Chump on the Lolita Express plane nor at Epstein's home(s).

If Virginia Roberts Giuffre had been abused or raped by Chump, she would have said something about it. She had no reason to protect him. Until we hear differently from G. Maxwell (and I don't believe that will happen) I'm convinced it wasn't Giuffre.

44. Kick

[IronLionZion]

45. GOP have been bloviating all along about QAnon cabal of wealthy child abusers

They've been doing this for years going back to Pizzagate in 2016. They protest too much. There is way too much evidence for a supposedly innocent person.

[timms139]

46. Wonder if the rumored

PEE tape was actually real and given to Putin as a gift from Trump's buddy Epstein ?

[FakeNoose]

48. It seems that Epstein gave Pootie some kind of kompromat to use against Chump

It happened just before the Helsinki conference, and that's when Putin pulled the rug out from under Chump.

I'm wondering if - whatever it was - it made Chump convinced that Epstein was the source and that's why he died a year later in prison? If that's the case it won't show up in these emails or anywhere else. We need to start asking people like Bill Barr or possibly Rudy Giuliani. Under oath of course.

[Skittles]

49. PREACH IT BROTHER CHRIS

SAY IT LIKE IT IS; yes INDEED

[malaise]

50. Lock him up!

That is all

[RockRaven]

51. Not only do I want to hear more elected Dems talk like this, I'd like to hear some

start raising the issue of what evidence has been corruptly or illegally redacted, mishandled, or destroyed to cover up for Trump.

[Emile]

53. Senator Murphy should replace Chuck Schumer!

[dem4decades]

56. Hopefully Murphy knows something we don't know....... yet.

[usonian]

57. Kick.

The dam broke.

Check flights and moving vans to Argentina.

[samplegirl]

59. Trumps

destroyed evidence by now.

[no_hypocrisy]

60. "Knew about it"??? HUH UH!

I'd wager three years of my life that Trump split the profits of trafficking young girls with Epstein.

[returnee]

63. Pedophile sex ring is only part of it.

This leads to Israel and Putin. A trifecta of criminal and treasonous horror.

[Hotler]

67. He's trying to protect himself and a whole lot of others. It's big club and I would bet it's been around before Bush 1.

This could be a global crime, not just a Washington thing.

[jimlup]

69. So I've become skeptical that the Epstein scandal will actually lead us anywhere...

My guess is tRump will be able to ride this one out.

I truly wonder if we should be concentrating our efforts somewhere else. Yes, let's release the damn files but I'm doubtful that we will find a smoking gun.

Further I think tRump's corrupt Justice department will obfuscate or redact anything incriminating in the files...

Just say'n
