It looks like Pam Bondi is going to be hit with the blame for this whole Epstein mess, but it’s not going to make the “Epstein Files” go away. Americans have been told too much of it, and even if she gets “fired,” it’s not going to help. From Raw Story, yes, again.
Attorney General Pam Bondi could be on the chopping block as President Donald Trump and his inner circle scramble for any way to contain the fallout of their base’s revolt over their delay and obfuscation in turning over the Jeffrey Epstein case files — but it won’t be enough, former Rep. Denver Riggleman (R-VA) told MSNBC on Friday evening. “Here’s the thing. So right now my question is, why didn’t Congress, why wouldn’t they want to call [Epstein associate Ghislaine] Maxwell to actually talk about the 50th birthday? Why wouldn’t Congress want to have her to come there? I mean, you want the facts out, right, Mike? That’s what we want to do, right?”
Exactly. It’s a saying from the old National Enquirer gossip paper. “Inquiring minds want to know”. *Everyone* wants to know at this point, MAGAts and non-MAGAts alike. I most certainly do. The build-up to this started in 2024 when tRump was making it part of the platform he ran on. He didn’t bother to think “ahead” to realize he was actually going to have to follow through. This was not a promise he could break. He’s broken all of his promises so far (hello, Russia-Ukraine war), but this one? Oh, no, that ‘ain’t’ happening.
“The other thing, too, is that —how do you blame other people for creating this conspiracy theory, that you did yourself?” said Riggleman, referencing Trump’s more recent claims that the whole scandal was fabricated by Democrats. “And when you’re looking at the base, what they’re going to see with the grand jury reports? We’re going to see if anything is redacted. If they don’t see all the evidence, they’re going to spiral. And a lot of people have seen the far right trying to message out of this.
As far as Bondi goes, Riggleman added, “It’s the beginning of the end. She’s gone soon. She’s not going to last much longer in this administration. I think they’re going to have to have a fall woman. I think it’s going to be Pam Bondi.” Getting rid of Bondi, however, won’t solve the problem.
They’ve rolled the rock of Epstein *they* started for the people. It’s up top of that mountain, and now that rock could start back down, to crush Trumpolini and the Republicans and MAGAts beneath it, except I’m not sure but MAGAts wouldn’t be able to step out of the way. MAGA wants answers. QAnon wants answers, and they won’t stop until they get them. No matter how tRump and Co. dance around it, it’s not going to be enough.
“It’s going to be very difficult for the Republicans and the MAGA base to message out of this,” said Riggleman. “And I think the Democrats can hit on this for years. I just don’t see any way out for them, regardless of what they release. This fever, the conspiratorial fever rises and rises until crazy starts to eat its own tail. And if crazy starts to turn that ship towards you, you better watch out.” “Even if it’s Donald Trump, if it looks like that he is protecting a pedophile, and it looks like he is the one that QAnon warned about, there could be huge issues,” he said.
The Epstein files were always a disaster waiting to happen, both for what they are and for the kooks who thought Trumplethinskin would publicize those files. They want them. MAGA is going to explode, and they *will* be released, one way or another. tRump is going to fall. He may very well take most of the Republicans with him. Then what will our country look like?
Thanks for sticking with me!
Zoomers, we are always in need of donations. We work hard to get you analysis that you will not find in the mainstream media, but all media have been hit hard since the big companies have gobbled up and monopolized commentary. Anything you can spare will be immensely appreciated. And thank you to all who have donated generously already. Ursula
Trumplethinskin wins by a country mile AND, as I’ve often quoted Hamlet THIS scenario is probably the best one most likely one to be devoutly wish’d
J, you’re being confusing. Are you center left or far right, because this *sounds* far right. Let me know, please.
I was pretty young at the time, but I think this is how Watergate played out.
Started as a simple burglary and just kept boiling. The more Nixon and crew tried to tamp it down; it only grew until it devoured him.
I was pretty young, too, but from what I remember, you are absolutely correct. I might have been maybe 6. Showing my age here lolol
