    They could read every single one of their names and not a god damned thing will happen

      That’s old school thinking. The question is, if someone kills them, will anyone stick out their neck to try and punish someone who kills a child rapist?

      The paradigm has shifted. We are all guilty until proven innocent, which is why the left needs to go hard and go all the way.

      Make the rich beg for the old paradigm of innocent until proven guilty. Exterminate them all, then grant their last wish

      They can do their crimes in front of everyone to see and film and nothing will happen to them. What a fucking joke of a world.

    So now that these names are named, wouldn’t it be easier to sue to government for illegally redacting them as they weren’t legitimate names to be redacted?

    It’s harder when you don’t have the names.

    Not that anything will happen even if it does… but in a sane world, it would right?

      I don’t know how the law works on this, but it’s so fucked up that they carefully redacted these guys while exposing several of the victim’s names. It’s pretty clear who the FBI and DOJ work for and it isn’t the American people.

        I’ve seen Massie and Ro Khanna on several independent media interviews, and both of them have said that the way the law works is that there are no redactions allowed for anyone but the victims, nothing else is supposed to be redacted but the victims’ names, so the government is totally breaking the law.

    It feels like they’re selecting names and hiding others. If they are just going to say the names why redact them for the public in the files?

      If you listen to what he says, the FBI redacted all the files before passing them to the DOJ. The DOJ was only able to release the versions of what they actually had.

      Ro went to the FBI to see the originals, but it’s not like he could comprehensively hunt through the 3 million files. It sounds like he just pulled out names of people that he found that were mentioned in particularly damaging documents that were redacted only to keep their own names clean.

      It’ll take a much larger effort to comprehensively go through with proper redactions of victim info, without hiding perps.

        He also said in an earlier video that the files were setup like a SCIF which means no writing things down to remember them later. At some point I would start forgetting names as I found new ones.

    Well I was dead wrong. When I was psychotic after my TBI in 2022 I put my own version of the Epstein List on Github. It’s still there, a private repository that’s basically a schizophrenic nightmare, lmao. It’s an interesting rabbit hole to go down if you’re interested in what happens to you when you smoke a bunch of weed right after getting a traumatic brain injury.

    But anyways, yeah, I was off about Epstein, and I do not seem to have gotten any of the names right. I had Guy Fieri, Kanye West, Pete Davidson, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump, Travis Barker? lmao
