Nice and mean at the same time. Practical Democrat. Yelling "dO sOmEtHiNg" is doing nothing. I blame republicans for what they're responsible for because I tell the truth. My motivation is getting things right. I don't care about your TV show or podcast.

This review happens during the period when Ghislaine delayed her appeal to SCOTUS.
Great urgency in reviewing Epstein files. Then silence for three months. Then the July 6 “nothing to see here” memo.
Wonder what they found that led to panicked silence then attempted cover up?

The docs also reveal the number of hours the FBI devoted to the project, which required some agents to work nights and weekends. The FBI paid personnel $851,344 in overtime for working on the Epstein files between March 17 and March 22.

Remember that in this period Trump's voice was hoarse in a WH presser and he said he was screaming about a country--he may not even have said tariffs--but the next day or two they took off the coffee tariffs.
Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.
And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.
