Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a batch of 68 photos obtained from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein on Thursday, one day before the deadline for the Trump administration to release a much larger group of Epstein files.
The photos come from a trove of 95,000 images the committee received last week, the Democrats said. The release includes images of lines from the novel “Lolita” written on a person’s body; various travel documents; a screenshot of text messages about an 18-year-old from Russia and more. The photos can be accessed here.
The Democrats released several dozen photos last week, showing various high-profile figures including President Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Woody Allen, Gates and others. Neither batch of photos implicates any of those pictured in Epstein’s crimes.
I think it’s important to discern where the focus is/where time and energy is best suited for. Just doing “something” lacks direction and therefore lacks foresight. Throwing stuff at the wall hoping that it’ll stick isn’t a great approach.
What has come of it? The files were “released” yesterday that were 90% blacked out, some photos are labeled incorrectly (ie: Michael Jackson and Clinton). I was expecting this outcome and the d’s reaction is to threaten impeachment, I was also expecting this outcome. This all is theater. So what is the point?
