People that want to blame the attention of the Epstein files as being some Democrat push are just denying reality. The fact is the Epstein law was a bipartisan law.
The fact is plenty of pundits, personalities, podcasters, politicians, etc. on the right have been pushing for this transparency, arrests and the like for a long time. Some of these people (Patel) have important positions in the current administration to do something about it or recently were in those positions (Boningo). Many of them, like MTJ and others are still pushing for the transparency and action. It is safe to say none of those people wanted to “get DJT”.
I would accept an argument that there was more interest on the right than the left previously. Though DJT did campaign on this transparency and make a promise towards it. He even made some token silly photo op giving right wing influencers binders full of materials that were already public. He, and many people were happy when they could do that and call it a win.
Epstein is a speeding locomotive that is going to plow through anyone on the tracks. Now that it has turned into a runaway train for DJT, he and others are trying to continually reframe this as some Democrat hatched plot which is ridiculous.
As if Dems were somehow so devious as to convince all the people on the right that Epstein was a big deal, get them to push for transparency, get DJT to make a campaign promise about it, and now swoop in for the kill by… doing what exactly? Deposing the Clinton’s and Les Wexner? Issuing subpoenas to former U.S. Attorneys General Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Jeff Sessions, Alberto Gonzales, William Barr, and Merrick Garland. Also James Comey, and Robert Mueller (I think his was recinded). Then of course Maxwell was also subject to subpoena.
There’s no one at the controls of the train now. This is a speeding locomotive at this point, it’s going to plow through anyone standing on the tracks.
I want everyone involved to be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. I don’t care who they are, what political party, country of origin, royal title, political office, or amount of money they have.
I just don’t see that accountability coming in the U.S. I wish I could be more optimistic on that.
