Will Bondi say the files can't be released because they are under investigation?
I don't know if this will work legally but it sure as hell won't work in the court of public opinion.

Good for him, temporarily.
Bad for him because it is an exponential admission of guilt. Scumbag.
He is pissing off a lot more potential leakers with this sham investigation.

The recent explosive items have come from the Epstein estate directly to House Dems

(10,682 posts)Some of the documents mentioned Trump, including one from Epstein's brother, Mark, which references photos of Trump "blowing Bubba." "Bubba" is a nickname of former president Bill Clinton, but Mark Epstein told Newsweek the individual was not Clinton. He did not provide any additional details about the identity of Bubba or the meaning of the emails.

(22,593 posts)There will be investigations outside of "Defenders of Jeffrey" DOJ.
There is a giant money trail to follow. There are victims speaking out, writing books. And there are who knows how many witnesses not already bribed. It's too big to cover up entirely. "Randy Andy" Mountbatten Windsor is radioactive.
Anonymous? I haven't heard much from them, but I am sure there's enough evidence/dirt to uncover to bust the operation.
