Another complaint — for which there was no contact information provided — alleged that “calendar girls” parties at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago involved genital measurements for children.

“Jeffrey Epstein would bring the children in and trump would auction them off. He measured the children’s vulva and vaginas by entering a finger and rated the children on tightness,” the complaint reads.

    If there’s evidence to convict him of these crimes then do it. Biden’s team had access to all of this, why didn’t they do anything? Why wasn’t all of this released before the last election?

      Let me lead by saying I 100% think Trump is a pedo fuck and deserves to rot in jail.

      But the reason why there isn’t talk about an actual conviction from the most sensationalist stuff in the Epstein files is that the most sensationalist stuff all comes from tips or reports given to the FBI or other law enforcement. They haven’t been proven. Nobody wants to hear that because it’s less exciting than reading a headline about how Trump is measuring child vaginas with his finger. It only takes a little bit more effort (actually reading articles rather than headlines) to find out that most of this stuff isn’t in a situation where it could be used in court to convict him currently.

      It’s pretty fucking clear the only difference between the dems and republicans is the stickers they put on the hellfire missiles they use to bomb children’s hospitals in the middle east.

      Hello Kitty or hot rod flames.

          My hope for the Democratic party died last year. I was a “vote blue no matter who” believe it or not. That was until I realized they couldn’t give two shits about the very horrors you describe. So no, this time it’s different.

          Image what they could do if they just fucking stood their ground or matched their energy.

          Only a dumbass would think the dems need some more votes to start taking action. It’s fucking pathetic. Why are you not demanding more from our elected officials? They known they don’t need to earn your vote.

            What they could do? When the country gave republitards full control of all branches of government? lol go ahead and describe what “matching their energy” looks like in that situation. You know which two sides are the same? The clowns who votes for Trump and the clowns who didn’t vote for Kamala, both equal contributors to the current clown show. Because falling for Qanon conspiracies or “Killer Kamala” memes is just the same retardation in my book.

              Oh I voted for Kamala. Every single Republican involved in this shit needs to be handcuffed and sentenced to life in prison for high treason. Anything less is just support for these fuckheads. Sorry you had to find out you’re a fascist traitor this way.

                I voted democratic too, but also work to get electable candidates that meet the moment. Your attitude is passing the buck for controlled opposition designed to fail. What is the definition of stupid? Doing the same thing and expecting different results? Grow a fucking spine.

          Both sides are evil and self-serving.

          The entire purpose of the democrat party is to make sure nobody gets elected that will raise taxes on the ruling class.

            Or reverses the license they’ve given themselves over the decades. All stemming from the 1971 Business Roundtable, the first iteration of the long game to bugger democracy.

      Because Merrick Garland was the AG and Biden believed in an impartial DOJ. I know Trump directs the DOJ to do his bidding, but there was a time when that wasn’t normal.

        Allowing the doj to fail in their statutory duty is not noble, it’s a dereliction of duty. Get off Biden’s dick, he failed us. Unless you want to be ruled by republicans because these dems won’t take the country back. Jesus Christ.

      This old tired republitard line that keep getting repeated is so braindead:

      1. Biden didn’t order the DOJ around like the orange clown.
      2. Maxwell’s case was still active.

        Sounds like they probably should have been a little bossier. This is i credibly serious stuff and they just let it move at a snail’s pace? And what, it was so important and they were so sure they’d win the next election? The next election where they had momentum, realized it was because of progressive messaging and appealing to younger voters, and then tanked the whole thing with center-right branding because they haye winning?

        No matter how you slice it it was weak bullshit.

          In principle, the Dept of Justice is meant to be completely independent of the White House. The point is to have a federal entity concerned with the law over politics. If they are failing to actually prosecute the law, then a change in leadership is needed, but as far as which specific cases to.pursuw and how, that should be separate from whichever person/party is in power.

          It’s exactly because it’s serious that Biden tried to do everything on the most “by the book” way, so that claims of partisanship could have no substance. But voters are retarded.

              The main group who “allowed” this is the braindead electorate. But yes, proper procedure in a situation that serious matters in a real democracy, you dismissive clown.
