Not just trump [View all]

I’m going to state the obvious here but I think the suspension of congress because tiny johnson is willing to twist is conscious into knots to prevent the vote on the Epstein files, is only the obvious angle

I think it’s not just trump in those files the repukes are afraid of.

Huge repuke donors is more likely the reason.

The orange asshole is a side show that, at this point, he would weather his pedo past and probably some trafficking to boot given the fucked up insane landscape. That sounds truly sad and horrible but that the world we nowlive in.

However, not all are to easily escape being named in the files.

And honestly, what makes politics run? Money.

And what Epstein was “good” at besides being a fucking creep, was blackmailing people.

He’s dead, but he left a legacy in his wake. A ledger, a notebook, lists, registers, videos, photos, etc that monied people would love to never see those items come to the light of day.

While the orange idiot is now serving the right wing as their lapdog of hate to push through their 2025 agenda, he won’t be around forever. And they know he can’t be easily replaced. A useful idiot like him only comes around once in a life time, but donors? They are eternal

And the very last thing the right wing wants to do right now, is piss them off.

We already know the musk and theil spent time at pedo island, but they are the guys with the big mouths and big egos, but they aren’t the movers and shakers…as much as they would like to think they are.

There are deeper, older more influential pockets that need to be protected.

This is why I believe these money’s interests are squeezing tiny johnson by his balls to keep the govt from reopening. They couldn’t care less if the government ever reopened. It has zero to no effect on their lives, but if it were found out that these money’d interests names
came out in the open, their lives would be ripped open and exposed for all to see.

So while the orange idiot is the obvious target, there are so many shadowy figures behind the scenes actually running things that are in those lists, notebooks, etc that will do everything they can to keep it all from coming out
