When Biden's FBI/DoJ had control of the Epstein files, it was pretty much accepted that they were trying to protect OTHER
Democrats, like Bill Clinton and Bill Gates,(who, speculatively) probably "donated" a LOT of money to the Party, Clinton and Biden,
so they never released them, but KNEW what was IN them.
Now, when it seems (to you fucks, only) that Trump may be implicated, they and YOU, want the files released.
Today, CNN reported this:
Judge Rejects Trump Administration Request To Release Jeffrey Epstein Grand Jury Documents
By CNN Digital Expansion 2019, Kara Scannell
Updated 5 hr ago
A federal judge said he would not unseal grand jury transcripts and exhibits from the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein -
rejecting the Justice Department's request to make them public.
[...]
WHY is the Trump administration trying to get the Grand Jury documents released, if Trump might be implicated in something as
dubious as being "with" underage girls?
(me thinks this judge is simply protecting his masters)
[...]
Judge Richard Berman said the Justice Department did not overcome long-standing precedent to keep grand jury materials sealed and
noted that the information contained in the sealed materials is small relative to the entire investigation file already in DOJ's
hands.
(LOL... there are always stupid reasons for what judges do)
"The information contained in the Epstein grand jury transcripts pales in comparison to the Epstein investigation information and
materials in the hand of the Department of Justice," the judge wrote.
(so? and? If it MIGHT "pales" in comparison, then there should be NO reason to release it, unless this "small amount" may implicate
someone he's trying to protect)
The Justice Department declined to comment on Berman's ruling. This is the third federal judge to decline to release Epstein-
related transcripts and evidence from a grand jury.
(WHAT are they hiding? Again... WHY would the TRUMP administration be requesting the Grand Jury documents, if Trump is implicated,
and WHY would they not release GJ documents, if he was? Someone's being protected, and it's not the victims OR Trump)

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
