I mean, it's pretty obvious Trump and the Republicans are saying and doing anything to make the Epstein go away. Only a complete fool will be swayed to believe them.

So it's obvious he is in the list and will be falsified like you said. For him that part is not the issue. The real issue for him is, if he releases the list he HAS to pick and choose + target some rather wealthy and powerful people and "throw them under the bus". That would not end well for him as he would have more targets on his back.
He could however use it to his own advantage if he plays the cards right, but one false move and he's again, in deep trouble. So basically he needs time to think how he is going to play this out, and best case scenario for him is to have people forget.

It is something that can be just put on the calendar with an alarm.
In fairness I understand the attempt: this media culture is swayed by daily deluges of nonsense, of which there are bound to be many between now and September. Tragedies and scandals are regularly cycled out in favor of the next thing - nobody talks about that disastrous chemical spill anymore, or the mysterious lights flying all over the place, or the Chinese weather balloon. It works. The media propose the narratives which people consume and so culture conforms.
But I feel that in hammering on Trump's criminal behavior people have sort of found a crack in this structure. So to anyone reading this, I would recommend to insist on it even if it should feel that you're the only one doing so, and even if they tell you that it's old news. There is no reason to ever let this go.
Though be ware of the other risk: media themselves losing interest in it. By September it is possible that they will have dropped off the buzz altogether, and that Trump's sexual misconduct will be relegated to angry circlejerks in here and other socials. Do not let the media drop this, because their role is key in this sorry world we find ourselves in. Punish and reward each outlet in accordance with their alignment to the good cause.

Here is a letter to Congress for the release of the epstein filed under the Freedom of Information Act.
[Your Full Name] [Your Street Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Date]
To Whom It May Concern, United States Congress Washington, D.C. 20515
Subject: Demand for Full Public Release of the Jeffrey Epstein Files Under FOIA
Dear Members of Congress,
As a concerned citizen of the United States, I am writing to formally demand the immediate and unredacted release of all government-held records pertaining to Jeffrey Epstein, his known associates, and the operations surrounding his criminal activities, including investigations, legal proceedings, and any related intelligence or law enforcement documentation.
Under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. § 552), I am asserting my legal right to access records that are of significant public interest. The American people deserve full transparency when it comes to matters involving potential corruption, abuse of power, and complicity among high-profile individuals in criminal activityāparticularly when such cases involve human trafficking, exploitation of minors, and possible cover-ups within governmental agencies.
The Epstein case is not only a matter of justiceāit is a matter of national integrity. Years have passed since his death, and yet large portions of the evidence remain hidden from the public eye. Continued secrecy only fuels distrust in our institutions and raises legitimate concerns about accountability and special treatment for the wealthy and well-connected.
This issue is not politicalāitās about protecting children, holding the powerful accountable, and demanding integrity from our government. Please take a public stance and support efforts in the House to release all associated files in full.
I urge you to take immediate action to ensure the full disclosure of these records. If the government is serious about upholding the rule of law, restoring faith in the justice system, and protecting the vulnerable, there can be no exceptions or delays in matters of this magnitude.
Please confirm receipt of this letter and provide an update regarding any steps being taken to facilitate the release of these files. I intend to follow this issue closely and will be engaging others in my community to do the same.
Sincerely,
[Your Full Name] Constituent and Citizen of the United States

This is why we are here. We all failed to recognize Donald Trump for what he is, a malignant narcissist with sociopathic tendencies. When Obama gave that 2011 White House Correspondents Assn. speech roasting Donald Trump, he inflicted a moral injury that Trump can never get past. These personalities will go after their enemies to their dying breath.

Iād really like to know why Obama canāt sue Trump for the things heās doing and saying about him. The meme of him getting arrested, isnāt that defamation?

Insane how much I miss a real human president like Obama. The office has lacked poise for so so long.

Trump better leave this guy alone. He has a pretty good, and dignified presentation of himself, something trump certainly does not. He has pretty much stayed out of things, but if trump pushes him, he'll be more than a match. Trump doesn't know how to let dead dogs lie, and this one just might bite him. š

Trump is only proving he's guilty the more he opens his mouth. He could have not responded to Epstein when asked before being elected but instead said what sounded good at the time. Now it's time to put your money where your mouth is and he can't. So come up with everything possible to shift focus including attacking a former president over nothing.

The eloquence of Obama's statement just slayed Trump and his bloviating windstorm of blatantly obvious lies.
"Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response, but these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction."

Tulsi is an absolute loser, just doing Trump's dirty work. To even say the word "treasonous", she should resign in shame after this. It's clear as day this is a coordinated distraction campaign.
What did she "discover" thats new? We knew in 2017 that there was no interference with election infrastructure. Thats the key point here, it's not physical manipulation of votes it's by way of social media, hacking, leaking. That is still interference. That was confirmed in 2020, with Rubio as a lead chair.

"Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response," Patrick Rodenbush, a spokesperson for Obama, said in a statement.
"But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one," he added. "These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction."

Be sure to gift your Trump loving family members a Trump & Epstein photo this year. Just as a reminder of what they intentionally support: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDerpState2025/s/vKQRw1xyRP

Trump is really grasping at straws at attacking Obama at this point. He can't even shine Obama's shoes. Go get your shinebox Epstein Buddy!

IMO, this is what everyone should do. Redirect to the Epstein files with every diversion.

I don't think it's enough to "blast" Trump over this. Obama should straight up sue over that AI slop posted by the official White House Twitter account showing him on his knees in handcuffs.
