Epstein Files have been officially blanked out of existence

I have gone to MSNow, faux, CNN, abc, CBS, nbc, NYT, WP, LA Times, Mother Jones and Vox as a solid news media cross section and went at least two pages deep and could not find a single reference to the Epstein Files. I couldn't even find an OP reference over the last week (could have overlooked it but I tried).

They have succeeded in erasing it from the public domain. Congress has even moved on and even Republicans that once supported it have now moved on as well.

They buried the Epstein Files deep into an Internet memory hole and no one said boo about it.

American society just gave pedophiles, sex traffickers and murderers a free pass. Oh well, American society also seems to be ok with letting police murder us in the street with no investigations either.

The Trump-Epstein Empire

the biggest sex, blackmail and money laundering scheme in recorded history.

It all starts with Epstein.

and came up with ICE raids, Venezuela, Greenland and now Iran. People are being killed to divert attention away from the Epstein files (which the POS is in in an incriminating way,) IMHO.

Nancy Mace doesn't say anything about it anymore. Anna Paulina Luna doesn't say anything about it anymore.
No Republican mentions it as far as I can tell. I think a couple Democrats still mention it occasionally but a lot less then they were a month ago.

You might not hear it when you're watching but I hear it mentioned on MSNOW at least once on every show.

But it's probably true of most other 'news' outlets.

Tiktok users have noticed that since the company's takeover by Trump buddies, censorship has increased not only of pro-Palestinian content but also of posts mentioning Epstein.

Which one might interpret as consistent with rumors of Mossad involvement in Epstein's operations.

How can page after page be all blacked out?
There is a lot out there in the private domaine that may yet come out, the government does not have it all.
Not to mention Putin still has cards to play in this.
I don't think it is going away. Maybe it is on the back burner but the gas is still on high.
