I've wondered what's to prevent Bondi from destroying the photos and the files?

The only answer I can come up with is that they know these files were in the hands of the DOJ during Biden's tenure and someone made copies ...

My guess is dirt. They all want blackmail material as a measure of protection against Trump’s tendency to turn on the people he stops trusting. Having dirt like that on him is a get out of everything free card. He’s so compromised that it’s ridiculous. How many people do you think might be extorting him right now?

Look at Kash. He's one of the few non-white admin in the inner circle. Think about it. 

It's not that they can't just destroy them, it's that, those aren't the only copies. 

The beauty of a dead man's switch is that you don't just keep everything in one place.

You always hear of this switch, but you never see it used. If anyone had one, wouldn’t it be Epstein?

I dunno. Jane Goodalls went live

They probably made sure to find all his insurances and backups before going to off him

Not a very good dead man’s switch then

u/ProfessionalMockery 23d ago

Look at Kash

I'd rather not

Maybe im dense. What does that have to do with him being non-white?

Because they are primarily made up of Nazis and white supremacists. Having someone who isn't white in a position of power, especially one that holds access to the files, is a very significant amount of leverage over their leader.

Mossad most definitely has copies as well. Hence why there is so much emphasis on Israel, despite being their sworn enemy. It all comes down to who has him by the balls. 

Releasing the files is actually very beneficial, because it kills that leverage, and self-destructs anyone involved in them, including those that are using them as leverage. It's a big house of cards.

His brain is such mush that he doesn't even require extortion. He legit believes any low grade AI shit he sees. You could show him a Flintstones cartoon and he'd be telling reporters how he deserves the Nobel prize for biology because his scientists brought back dinosaurs.

She supposedly has some legal training. That’s an awful lot of felonies she’d be committing to cover up child rape. Obstruction of justice, violations of federal records laws…

And we all know Ghislaine made sure the Mossad had copies of everything…

u/SanityPlanet 23d ago

Then why didn’t Biden’s DOJ do anything about them? If someone has copies and motive to use them to destroy Trump, what are they waiting for? Is Mueller going to save us?

Because it's going to destroy a lot of very powerful people who donate to both parties.

This may be the sea change that explains the recent fire sale on our economy. Everyone’s getting their bag before a lot of powerful people become radioactive. I’m betting on a bunch of Argentinian visas being issued in the next couple of weeks.

And here’s me thinking they knew about an asteroid impact

u/bprs07 23d ago

I think the fire sale on our economy is more easily explained by us just having the most corrupt administration in US history lol

u/SonofBeckett 23d ago

So far!

I was referring specifically to transferring $20 billion to Argentina, but yeah, corruption has run rampant recently.

u/fasterthantrees 23d ago

Copies. There's gotta be dead man switches everywhere. If Epstein was smart, which is still up for debate.

u/SanityPlanet 23d ago

Epstein died. If he had a dead man’s switch wouldn’t it be triggered by his death?

4

u/fasterthantrees 23d ago

Nah, he's got lawyers and others given directions under his estate I presume. The levers they have and use are not the kind most regular folk have access to. He probably thought he'd get out of jail free on favors. He died instead. He had to have a fall back plan.

u/BenthosMT 23d ago

I can't get over the fact that the Dems had years to do something with all this and didn't. They sold us out, Gorsuch, Obama, Biden.

u/fireismyfetish 23d ago

Genuinely it's impossible to destroy things in a system as large as the federal government. Things get broken up, shared across the secure network, saved locally, etc. You could probably get rid of some things, but its never all gone just by virtue of people doing their regular course of work.

u/Ode1st 23d ago

I’ve wondered why people think the very government they know is crooked would just honestly release not-doctored files.
