Over the weekend, Epstein survivors demanded that additional documents be released, accusing the Trump administration of concealing more than 3 million files
A Republican senator has changed her mind about the Epstein files after reviewing unredacted documents associated with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Wyoming Sen. Cynthia Lummis recently reviewed a handful of documents from the Epstein files without redactions, saying in an interview afterward that she now understands “what the big deal is."
Lummis, 71, told Capitol Hill reporter Pablo Manriquez on Monday, Feb. 9, that while she previously had said, “I don’t care” about Congress’ efforts to force the release of Epstein evidence, she now believes the issue was “worth investigating.”
Well, at least a critical thought did happen
More like she had to admit a thing she was conveniently for her career ignoring. She is a nihlist, believing in nothing. There was no conscience at work here, no appeal to justice. Just a cold calculation of positions.
A 71 year-old Senator who’s brain failed during the last election! Retire and GTFO!
Why the fuck would she not care that ~1000 underage girls were being raped and abused?
Because none of the ~1000 girls weren’t part of their family or entourage, so they don’t give a fuck.
Because she is a republican. They don’t care about things unless it affects them personally.
Or people are having sex they don’t approve of.
But in this case the sex is between one consenting adult and an underage girl, so they are fine with that.
Ironically if it was just the one adult by himself that would be a no no.
Tbh they just didn’t stop the evangelicals from that shit. Way way back in they day they were cooler about that. But then. Jeezus.
Then they saw its use as a weapon.

Because the GOP is a party of grifters, liars, and criminals
Gropey Old Pedophiles; its right there in the name.
Because as long as they haven’t seen the files they can make themselves believe that maybe the whole Epstein affair is speculation and grossly exaggerated and that they can’t possibly be that bad. When they finally see the truth they can no longer make those mental gymnastics. It also helps that they also likely realize that the truth will get out sooner or later and don’t want to be among the ones who protected those monsters.

It’s about a decade late for that.
If only
She probably saw a Democrat in the list and wants to win the next election.
It’s like the difference between someone who enjoys R18 content, and someone who enjoys R-18G content.
A victim subjected to R-18 activities will no doubt be subjected to what you stated. A victim subjected to R-18G activities will probably need their body to be hidden somewhere when the session is over.
The GOPper in question was likely most displeased when she misplaced the contents of her breakfast upon seeing several pictures of R-18G activities.
Maybe they wore a short skirt, so it was their own fault /s
Republicans are just horrible people.

That’s nice but it means nothing if she doesn’t do something about it. Release the files and impeach Trump. Anything less is just putting on a show to try to sway voters for the midterms.
Impeachment does nothing, he was impeached 4 times his first term and still finished it out.
That’s because Impeachment tis only half of the process, and occurs in the House. The Senate chose not to remove him from office… This article is about a Senator changing their position.
And would of course require yet another impeachment to remove him.
2 times.
It felt like four though
Fair enough.
Lummis, 71, told Capitol Hill reporter Pablo Manriquez on Monday, Feb. 9, that while she previously had said, “I don’t care” about Congress’ efforts to force the release of Epstein evidence, she now believes the issue was “worth investigating.”
The cynic in me thinks she ignored pages and pages of trump named referenced crimes and saw Clinton’s name at least once, so now she’s wants to make political hay only against Clinton.
God does it suck that what you’re saying makes so much sense.
Worst fucking timeline ever
I dunno. The Crusades were super fucked up.
I mean that was this timeline too?
Was it? 🤔
Well, not the Goranthian Underwater Book Club Crusades. They were pretty mild though. That timeline was still better.
I feel like the words “I don’t care” should ever escape a politician’s mouth. Their entire job is to care. Why are they representing us if they don’t?
Money.
So there’s about 3 million files and Trump appears on more than 1/3 of them?
He’s in more than a million files? I thought it was like 5000, and often multiple references on some of those files., totalling about 38k references?
ding! ding! ding!
Amazing how they all grow spines after announcing that they’re not running for reelection.
It’s almost like the only reason they vote like pieces of shit is because their party. They hold no values of their own while they’re in office, and don’t vote based on what their constituents want. It’s solely what the party tells them to do.
It is probably effecting the voting numbers for her and therefore she needs to pretend again to get the sweet sweet suckers to vote for her again come next cycle.
It is probably effecting [sic] the voting numbers for her
Dude, she’s a senator from Wyoming who isn’t running for reelection in 2026. Did you even check before you speculated about this?
Aah, so a peaceful retirement where she can say she changed her mind so the people with pitchforks and torches don’t camp out the residence.
Okay, so you’re just going to make up literally whatever feels right to you regardless of evidence – and I say this as someone who, unlike you, knows anything at all about Cynthia Lumis and therefore has the capacity to hate her for the terrible things she’s done.
Okay, in more polite terms: it’s fine to be uninformed, and it’s fine to be wrong. What’s not fine is to be confidently incorrect on a subject you know nothing about, get shown that you have zero idea what you’re talking about, and then (the wrong part) instead of reflecting on that and trying to learn more so you can develop an informed opinion, just kneejerk pivot to whatever idea pops into your head next.
For you, that’s the quickest way to never learn anything, and for the people around you, it’s just polluting the discussion with uninformed, unsubstantiated noise.
I don’t know you’re right.
Have the wonderful day you want and please don’t give me another thought. Take care love.
I don’t know you’re right.
I’m not making a claim about her motives in that comment. I’m saying that this commenter is just making shit up that sounds true to them, evidenced by the comment about an alleged contentious vote in a solid Republican state in an election she’s not even participating in. Anything they’re saying is paper-thin, and anything true they say is only true accidentally.
Edit: You removed a substantial portion of your comment speculating on Lummis’ motives, and so I was under the impression while writing this that you meant “I don’t think you’re right [about her motives]”.
You don’t care about illegal bombings of boats in the ocean, ICE’s cruel treatment of immigrants and the US citizens who care about them, nor massive sexual assault against underage girls until your face is smeared in it. What do you care about?
Her: Ummmmm . . America! *waves flag, takes bribes*
She can tell the truth because she isn’t running for reelection.
See, that’s why they redact the shit, so they can skirt responsibility. It’s sad it took this long for people to open their eyes, but at least it seems to be starting to happen?
Heheh. Well, that’s what omnipresent global propaganda is for! Just keep them in the fox news buckets and they’ll never flinch.
What a CUNT
Try to imagine the worst thing you can. It’s so much worse than that.
Stuff that, once seen, can’t be un-seen.
I anticipate high levels of guro. Even Republicans may feel some hesitation around R-18G material.
