It's easy to write a law that says anything when you fill the DOJ with sycophants who don't actually follow said law, and won't answer legitimate questions from Congress, and don't even attempt to indict anyone except your personal enemies.

I actually wanted to thank you for this post. I’m constantly trying to understand the mental state and perceived reality of people who support Trump, and this gives a little genuine insight into it. The bolded is incredibly telling.

So do you think, after everything you've seen or heard, that he was involved in any sort of illegal behavior related to Epstein and his child sex trafficking?

I'm not asking you to put it on trial and form guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, I'm just asking what your gut tells you based on all you know.

I'm stunned, I just assumed it was a joke. I mean, he played well in the game and all but that's craziness. I guess I shouldn't be surprised by anything, it just felt like I was reading the Onion when I first saw that.

It's mostly gone to a bunch of golfers and celebrities and is kind of what it is now. Why so surprised?

Just so we're all clear on this.

You believe Obama and Biden both had the means (no roadblocks) to release any and all Epstein files?

You believe all Epstein files have now been released? There's nothing else out there?

You believe none of the files have been tampered with in any way by the current administration?

And if Biden could have done everything you wanted, then why didn't Trump do all of that during his first term?

Weak dems gonna weak dem. Not one mention of Epstein in the response. Just more of the "when they go low we go high" stuff that has yielded zero results for over a decade. Sigh.

And for those that want to bury their head in the sand

Quote:
The Justice Department has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds. It also removed some documents from the public database where accusations against Jeffrey Epstein also mention Trump.
Some files have not been made public despite a law mandating their release. These include what appear to be more than 50 pages of FBI interviews, as well as notes from conversations with a woman who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago when she was a minor.

Because he's ok goalie who had a good game and the luck of an empty net miss by MacKinnon to even get that game to OT to begin with. He's a good goalie who had a good game. It's nothing Earth-shattering.

But like I've said I shouldn't be surprised by anything the current administration does. If it doesn't make sense it's probably very true.

Other Olympic athletes have received this medal, but that's more like dominant long time excellence, like Katie Ledecky who has 44 Olympic and World championship medals, includung 9 gold and 14 total Olympic medals through 4 Olympics.

So yeah

Well, he's not known to be particularly accurate on any of the numbers he throws out there.

How about this. How about we don't give out awards for freedom to athletes?

Just a thought, but how about we reserve it for only those who have truly advanced the cause of freedom? Crazy, I know.
