    The released files contain the anonymous tips people sent in, including ones sent after Epstein became public knowledge. This tip was likely fake (or at least the fading embers of my faith in humanity hope it is), but we’ll never know for sure due to the DOJ’s refusal to investigate any of it.

      It’s good that they don’t investigate it now. They’d just bury anything they want and purposefully do a bad job. If a shred of normalcy ever returns to the White House then it can be investigated properly

          Silly Biden - back then it was presumed that the president shouldn’t interfere with investigations like that. They should be done apolitically, and independently.

            Communications use shortcuts. You didn’t define what “return to normalcy” was and I didn’t put restrictions on what that meant. After the first trump presidency, there was already a “return to normalcy” in which the US government was in stable enough hands to do all that, and nothing happened.

            I wasn’t saying that “Biden needed to personally handcuff trump and put him behind bars” I was saying “the US already returned to a state of normalcy where the correct investigation could have happened and justice dealt, however this was not done.”
