211 House Republicans Vote to Block Release of Epstein Files
So there are at least 211 child rapists in the house?
At least 211 that think it’s fine to stay hidden from justice.
Republicans have taken to voting "No" on damned near anything a Democrat floats for a vote, so this was an excellent opportunity to dump kerosene on the flaming bag of shit Trump stepped in.
But otherwise...
Yeah, its a bit of a problem.
hack cough cough gag wheeze cough... ad infinitum
Please note this is page 56 of the list. You likely won't finish a single page before you need to go sit out in a garden for a while.
Well now, that's an actual play by the Democrats, I'm a little surprised. Of course the Republicans have to vote against it because they have to protect President Smooth Brain, but this then drags out the story over another news cycle when Trump is desperate for people to stop talking about it.
Now, all this means nothing because the base will eventually get to "it's ok for Trump to have raped those girls because he was saving them from the evil Democrats who would have done worse" but at least there's a small moment where I can imagine things matter.
This is the longest I've seen his base angry at Trump & Republicans for. He got ratioed on Truth Social for the first time ever. He's also doing something he rarely does - telling his base directly that their concerns don't matter to him. Republicans usually manufacture away around issues that still pretends to care about their concerns, but they are not doing that well here
I can't fully predict the future think this leaves a wound that not all the base comes back from and that matters. If say 10-20% of MAGA people don't return, that weakens his grip on power. Some percentage going away enables a permissions structure for future criticism on other issues. Wannabe authoritarians need zero criticism to be acceptable to their followers because the tiniest bit can snow ball
He’s also doing something he rarely does - telling his base directly that their concerns don’t matter to him.
This is such a key.
It's a great play.
Every single Democrat running against these assholes next November will be able to say the Republican candidate voted against the release of the Epstein files. That's their headshot in the debates. "Representative X voted against the release of the Epstein Files" is an easy campaign strategy.
The scariest thing about this is the fact 211 members of congress are willing to go along with this cover up because they are either in on it, or too cowardly to stand up for what’s right.
Sick the Dems did nothing when they had control too and are now grandstanding what they knew would fail. It's fucked up all the way around, this is just the latest round of sickening.
In an article by Kenn Klippenstein that was shared here recently, he pointed out that the FBI started talking about 1000s of victims instead of dozens, like before.
So on the one hand there most be a lot of people in those files who have a seat in congress or very close access to them. On the other hand there is plausible reasons to believe this was a huge Mossad blackmail operation, so all the Zionist lobby in the US, which has extensive access to many politicians, is probably make a lot of pushes now too.
I don't think there is some conspiracy. I think, like you said, the files list a large amount of people with only anecdotal evidence. Some people are likely voting because they're concerned their name is on their. But I think voting to not release the files is more about being able to control the narrative. Without it released you can claim to have read it and seen your rivals listed, once it's released you can't make things up anymore.
They can't let us know officially that the laws are only for peasants. It would cause unrest.
Very good, House Dems. Now keep doing it--introduce another 99 bills to do the same between now and the next presidential election (if there is one), which would be as many as the number of times House republicans introduced bills to repeal the ACA (and that only counts their bills through 2017, which was the latest date I found a source for).
So 211 of them all admit it exists, at least. Good first thing to pin to them, and ask why their lord and savior thinks it doesn't exist.
"Do we think its part of his mental decline or his unwillingness to have his name read out?"
Also, just to edit myself and add a little something:
"If you feed a terrorist or fund a terrorist, you're a terrorist." - your enigmatic W. Bush.
Pam Bondi acknowledged she had a list of contacts among 200 pages of documents and was demanding more from Patel. It's available on the DOJ website.
What's the phrase Republicans use again? "If you did nothing wrong then you should have nothing to worry about"
Talk about karma
That's not karma. That's just hypocrisy .
They will never experience karma. America is apparently filled with pedophiles and pussies.
This isnt even true. It was proven recently that they can experience karma. Surprising, abrupt and unabashed.
Delia Ramirez from Illinois and Frederica Wilson from Florida. were the only two Democrats to abstain. the vote would have passed with them.
Apparently these are the ones to work on: "The nine Republicans who chose not to vote were: Andy Ogles (TN), Michael McCaul (TX), Thomas Massie (KY), Barry Loudermilk (GA), Wesley Hunt (TX), Morgan Lutrell (TX), Mark Green (TN), Monica De La Cruz (TX), and Buddy Carter (GA). "
Two assholes from my state TN
I would guess that these are the seats that are more contested, allows them to act like they are against something while they know they have the votes to pass it theor way anyway.
But but. How can you block the release of something that doesn't exist?....lol
Imagine telling on yourself like this
If there is a silver lining to all this, it’s the absolutely amateurish way they have gone about covering all this up. From the “raw” video with 3 minutes cutout to the flip flopping on the existence of the list. These are bad people clearly making this up as they go along, and not evil masterminds executing part 10 of a well thought out plan.
Yeah, they're not the world's brightest people. . Bigots normally aren't. They are townies, they don't know their ass from the hole in the ground.
Reminds me of Watergate in how sloppy and yet important it is. History sure does rhyme...
They're really going all in counting on no elections next year.
They’re counting on the fact that most people have worse memory than a goldfish and will blindly vote for their party of choice with no thought whatsoever.
Also they are definitely going to rig the election next year anyway, so there’s no reason for them to be sneaky anymore because they’re covered either way.
Dems should pull from the same playbook the Republicans pulled from when they voted to repeal Obamacare like 30 times while Obama was still in office. Make the Republicans keep voting to protect pedos, and then when they're out of the majority make Trump use his veto to protect pedos.
I hate this fucking country.
Shocking news!
Is this “the storm” the Qult has been promising us?
Good job guys! Protect those fellow pedophiles!
Ah ok, so I guess 80% of them are on the list lol
Got to protect the pedophile-in-chief.
Grand Old Pedophiles
Conservatives seem to have formulated their response.
209 Ds + 1 R voting yes to 211 Rs voting no = both parties are corrupt.
Everyone is on the list, even though Democrats voted yea. In conspiracy world, politicians are a hivemind that act in perfect lockstep. When you see 210 - 211 it means it's a circus and they don't care about us and they conspire to swap votes to trick the marks.
Something 90% of Americans shit out on a daily basis.
Yeah, because every accusation is a confession.
