Does someone actually get imprisoned and for how long?
Are individuals fined / imprisoned or are agencies fined (taxpayers money)for ignoring a judicial order?

Good on Katie Phang, but if the regulatory punishment is mediocre at best, I don't think it'll have much of an effect.

Hope I'm wrong, I'm certainly not a legal scholar.

Katie Phang is a licensed attorney, trial lawyer, and former prosecutor in Florida.,I'm betting this goes somewhere.

Those rape tapes must be some vile disgusting action.

Am I correct in assuming you think there's other men in the alleged videos besides Epstein?

And they neither did anything to bring those men to justice, and didn't include any of the tapes in their 2022 case against Maxwell?

I don't

The rich men’s names that raped and assaulted them have been redacted.

The justice department has been ignoring and downplaying Epstein crimes since his first state conviction

I mean I know what you're talking about generally with their names being exposed, but not the names of men, but I've not seen any of them explicitly say the name of someone who raped them was redacted. That would be a pretty big development I don't think I'd have missed

In any case, the topic at hand is the existence of "rape videos". I don't think Garland's DoJ would've just sat on such things. Apparently you do, that's your right. I disagree. I don't think they would've, or did

He was respectful of the DoJ "independence" from the Oval Office, a "tradition" the pedophile broke without consequences yet.

On edit: The DoJ did not interfere into the Maxwell trial by releasing anything, as required to not get her case dismissed.

and showed the man doing it. Maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part, but I've seen no evidence that such videos exist, nor that such a thing happened (Garland DoJ coverup). I also wouldn't think that NONE of the people who worked on the case, but have since been fired (Maureen Comey comes to mind) would say anything publicly if they knew of the existence of said videos.

criminal role in the criminal attempt to overthrow the 2020 election...

That's what happens when justice is delayed.

Republicrooks know how to protect themselves. Brazil did not wait a minute.

But in any case, an actual video is the gold standard of evidence. If a video of Trump literally directing the insurrection had been available, I don't think Garland's DoJ would've dragged their feet.

Maybe my faith is misplaced, but I just don't think Garland's FBI had videos of old rich guys raping the minors in Epstein's orbit, or Garland's DoJ would have pursued those men criminally. Nobody from the FBI has ever confirmed such videos exist (though they've said Epstein had child porn generally, they never said he was in them, or the girls he knew were in them). I'd think someone (perhaps who was fired by Bondi) would've come out by now and said "yeah, they do exist, I've unfortunately seen them myself" or that sort of thing.

To be clear, the lack of videos doesn't prove such offenses didn't happen, it just means there's not a super-easy way to prosecute people over the crimes. Bottom-line I don't think there's enough evidence (i.e. what we currently know), to presuppose that there ARE such videos. At best I think it's a maybe. MHO, fwiw

Really? Go to the Capitol and fight like hell or you won't have a country anymore... on freaking full 65 million colors...

What he did from the podium is not categorically unlawful enough to successfully prosecute a POTUS for what happened afterwards.

What Biden's DoJ needed was proof there was a preconceived plot to attack the Capital, and then proof that Trump was actively involved in the planning thereof. So the type of video I mean is he's talking to the head of the Oath Keepers and telling them "here's what you do" and it was "take violent actions". Also, I don't think you're correct that nothing was done for 2 years, so I reject the premise.

I'm just telling you, friend, I think it's more likely there are NOT videos of rich old (other) men molesting the minor girls in Epstein's orbit than it's likely there ARE, and I outlined (well, some of) the reasons I've reached that conclusion

I guess, perhaps time will prove me wrong (but it cannot ever prove me right because that involves proving a negative). I accept that risk, like I say I'm simply saying my best guess. And because that is my best guess, when someone presupposes that they MUST exist, I'll sometimes push back, because there is an inherent implication by such assertions that Biden's DoJ was totally corrupt. Not just foot-dragging, but outright corrupt. And in a REALLY horrible way.

And maxwells trial

does she have standing to bring the suit? I mean, we ALL should have standing, really. But IIRC, one of the issues with the EFTA is that there was no enforcement mechanism baked into it.

Roll the Tapes

There has to be a FBI agent who handled and grabbed a copy of the child porn flicks.

Time to find your Danial Ellsburg in you and dump the tapes and therefore trump.

Our imagination will be tested when the tapes come out about how vile and depraved one human can be being to a child.

"There has to be a FBI agent who handled and grabbed a copy of the child porn flicks".

Think about what you're saying.

that's what Ellburg did !

Which are illegal to possess in anything but the strictest of circumstances?

This theoretical agent could've gone to jail not just for stealing evidence, but for POSSESSION OF KIDDIE PORN.

If these videos exist, I seriously doubt any "agent" has "copies" they personally, secretly requisitioned. No matter how good their intentions may've been for doing so, it's a serious, serious criminal risk you're talking about.

At least Katie is trying to help.

She, like so many others, are pissing in the Ocean and expecting it to change color, or pissing upwind.....LOL

The DOJ, the FBI, etc. as well as the Republican Senators, Republican House Members, a large segment of the Appellate Courts, as well as the Republican Supreme Court......are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Republican 2025 group.......

This didn't just inadvertently "happen"......they have been organizing and orchestrating this for over 46+ years........inching forward step by step. They are finally at a stage where they are now "galloping".........

While The Nation Slept.........

Here we are folks, in MAY of a Major election year, and STILL without a Dem Party Leader, and not having much of any kind of plan..........

No man is abound the law, right? Right?
