Michael Cohen - September 3rd: The Day Silence Ends

I know it’s Labor Day. We should all be out there enjoying the long weekend; grilling burgers, soaking up the last rays of summer, stealing one more lazy afternoon with family and friends before life and politics come roaring back. One day. Just one damn day to relax.

But not so fast. Because while you’re flipping ribs on the grill or sneaking another cold beer from the cooler, the ghost of Epstein’s past is still looming over us all. You can’t barbecue away a scandal this big. Not when the survivors of his abuse are about to step forward and remind America that their trauma doesn’t take holidays. And not when the files—the real evidence—are still locked away in the government’s vault like radioactive waste no one wants to touch.

How many times have you heard me say it? Release. The. Files. The words have become a mantra, shouted into the void, met with shrugs and excuses. People assume because I once lived inside Trump’s orbit that I’ve got the magic key to every locked box in America, especially when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. Let me set the record straight: I don’t. If I did, you’d already have seen it splashed across every front page in the country.

But someone does have them: the government. Those files exist, they are complete, and they are sitting behind bureaucratic walls while survivors of Epstein’s abuse are left waiting for justice. And it’s not just about satisfying curiosity. These files aren’t tabloid fodder; they’re evidence. They hold the names, dates, connections, and decisions that explain how a predator built his empire, who enabled him, and who looked away. That’s the truth Washington is so terrified of releasing.

Just saw yet another psychic video where a woman claims she dreams the future and the orange bawbag *will* die on September 3.

Happy coincidence?

Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who in 2018 testified under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee that Supreme Court nominee Beer Bong Rapist Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her when they were in high school.

I remember vile Republican Jeff Flake, who "demanded" a fake, theatrical week long FBI investigation that conveniently went nowhere, and how Flake ultimately voted to confirm that rancid rapist on his way out the door, to probably enjoy a much more lucrative retirement than that of an average senator. I remember the crocodile tears. I remember the "I like beer!"

I remember his disgusting fellow rapist during his first wave of terror in the White House, saying something secret to Justice Kennedy right before Kennedy abruptly announced his retirement from the Supreme Court, making way for Beer Bong Boy.

I was thinking about Dr. Ford while scrolling by a movie about a high school football player assaulting a young girl, and my exhausted, cynical mind thought he'd be a viable Republican candidate for the USSC. Because no girl will ever be allowed to ruin a boy's future, no matter what he provably did to her.

I hope with all my heart some kind of justice will result for these victims/survivors.
