In reply to the discussion: House overwhelmingly passes bill to release Jeffrey Epstein files [View all]

(1,056 posts)63. Probably......
But if I had a hundred dollars for every time I said: "They can't do that"...........I would be worth more than Musk...LOL
My best "they can't do that' was when the USSC, without any legal or constitutional law, and in 2000 intervened the Florida election, and stopped the re-count.
It was purely at "states right" law that there be a re-count, and the USSC succeeded in shutting it down and literally deciding who should be president....votes be damned.
You may be 100% right, but that is no guarantee of the outcome, as we have seen time and time again these past decades, and it has accelerated this past decade, and gone into WARP speed the last 10 months.......

They'll try it and maybe get away with it for a while. But there are ways to read through redactions.

The pedophile party really had no choice. It was going to be passed by the Democrats and self preservation

Not one Republican can go back to their states & get re-elected after voting no. That's why they know they had no choice

He said he voted no because he is worried about the "innocent people" named in the files.

Agree but Trump did tell them to vote for it... also Johnson is trying to create a provision to exempt perpetrators...

The Repukes who voted "yes" are under the impression that the Senate vote will be "no"

Ahhh, but he will do something. That is what this BS investigation into Clinton et al is about.

All Republicans. Just can't find their names yet, nor will, most likely for suspicious reasons.

When will anything new actually be released? Will Trump block all the way to the Supreme court?

Louisiana Republican Clay Higgins voted against the bill. Two Republicans and three Democrats did not vote.

That's the question about those who abstained. Right? When their names are known they'll have some 'splainin' to do.

Now that their Fearful Leader has allowed it, the maggots come out of the woodwork to vote for it.

Epstein's brother is claiming that they are "scrubbing the files." Certainly months to do so.
