    Finally, we can get to the bottom of this whole “Did Donald Trump has any kind of involvement with Jeffery Whatisface?” question, once and for all. I’m excited to see these files released so that the FBI can act and any prosecutions of those involved can begin forthwith. Can’t wait for this decision to Release The Documents to put this whole matter to bed, once and for all.

      This won’t leave the senate floor my dude and if it does, Trump will 100% veto. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t see this getting anywhere. I hope they keep fighting in congress though. Add it to all bills, call votes on it weekly

        His base will be pissed if he kills it.

        It won’t show, influencers will suck him off. But mark my words, the more conspiratorial crowd is not going to forget. This is MAGA foundation we are talking about.

        It’s why this is the one controversy even he can’t lean into, and he knows it.

        Is this vetoable? Not every decision made by Congress is subject to a presidential veto, that would be insane. It’s just new bills, I thought. Releasing the Epstein files isn’t a law they’re trying to pass.

        As I’ve been saying for months, they’re not going to release anything that makes them look bad.

        It will just be a list of democrats they dont like or something.

        Nonsense. I think if there’s one thing this US Senate has proven to be, it’s anti-pedophile.
