I have been meaning to write about the Jeffrey Epstein situation, which I think has become an unfortunate distraction. Thus, the New York Times headlines, “Trump’s base is in open revolt over the Epstein case.” This delights them.
In my opinion, while Epstein was obviously a horrific person and was at one time well-connected, the political dimensions of the scandal have been absurdly overblown. Current demands for a release of the “Epstein files,” which can only mean the investigative files prepared by law enforcement, are misguided. Raw criminal investigation files are never released publicly, for excellent reasons.
Any release of materials at this point could only be highly selective and would be improper even on that basis. And selective releases could never satisfy the conspiracy theorists, and would only fuel demands for more. So President Trump is right. It is time to move on.

I worked in the private sector in hostile takeover situations.
We would come in knowing the employees hated our guts and wanted to make us look as bad as possible.
After we eliminated a few divisions on late Friday afternoons the attitude of those who remained got a whole lot better.
They decided they feared us more than they hated us.
Many became solid employees at that point.
P.S. Of course in the first year we never believed a word they said about anything. We checked and double checked and triple checked using a variety of audit techniques—and as we caught the liars we fired them on the spot.
But, we don’t have a single name of the Adults that committed the horrific crimes.
Or a list of payments.
Or a list of passengers.
..kinda just like all the fraud found by DOGE...
How many more things like this before one can call it a pattern?...
If POTUS or ay of his MAGA team wee involved Biden’s people would have released the list during the election..
Also, the perp was a persona-non-grata at Mar a Lago.
Trump has done a great job overall, especially on securing the border and the economy.
That being said, cleaning up Deep State and a corrupt criminal justice system was one of the top three issues he had a mandate for.
There is still a lot of work to do be done on that issue.
“There is still a lot of work to do be done on that issue.”
A LOT of work. Guitfield: If someone floods your basement for four years don’t expect it to dry over night.
“That being said, cleaning up Deep State and a corrupt criminal justice system was one of the top three issues he had a mandate for.”
Trump delivers. I trust him. I don’t want him to have his agenda highjacked.
Guitfield: Dems finally found an issue with traction; Epstein.
Yeah, I had that same experience in every M&A project.
