All but one Republican voted to NOT release the Epstein Files. What are they hiding and why are they protecting child rapists?

Not to throw gas on the fire, but as an outsider, why didn’t Biden release those files in the 4 years he was president?
It’s not usual procedure for evidence to be released to the public, and both Biden and his pick for the DoJ, Merrick Garland, were unimaginative precedent-driven ghouls who wouldn’t take a piss if it didn’t have a court case and bipartisan agreement in the past five years authorizing it.
I’d prefer that honestly
As the four years of the Biden administration in the face of literal fascism showed, there are definite drawbacks to that approach.
Because the “high road” and “Moral Victories” were the primary focus of his presidency. He made absolutely no effort to curtail and obvious dictator coming to power save for “pre-emptive” pardons on the people that were trying. So releasing the Epstein files was contradictory to his style of leadership which is not what we needed. I am not anti-biden, but I really am disappointed that he kept stepping on every land mine the donvict laid out for him as if on purpose sometimes.
47’s tenure might make you forget a few things about how presidencies are supposed to work. Releasing evidence is not something the president does, typically.
There are Democrats on the list also. Neither party wants this shit to actually come out.
Public deserves to see ALL who are on it, both parties. Burn them all.
I agree with you, I just don’t expect it to happen.
Not saying this happened under Biden, but why would those files be released when they could be used to prosecute those in there? It was the Republicans and more specific MAGA pushing for a release and making it an election topic. At least for me (European), the list, if it exists in this form, is something you base investigations on. You gain nothing from releasing it to the public. But Republicans used it to feed their fringe conspiracy voter base, so the question is not exactly “why don’t they release it”, but rather “why don’t they release it after talking about it for years and then putting the radio hosts who talked about it into key administration positions just to after claiming the files are on their desk stating that they don’t actually exist while simultaneously damaging people on release”. And it’s not like any potential list came up during Biden’s admin. Epstein was arrested and died under Trump.
I’d also think that some people have some kind of Dead Man Switch for releasing the relevant documents (if they exist).
I actually think it should be released publicly. There will be no justice without transparency. The people involved are to powerful to expect it to be handled justly.
Personally, I’m not a fan of vigilante justice, regardless of the crime, and this is certainly what this would lead to. But the big scandal is actually that there seemed to be no investigation into people apart from Epstein and Maxwell; this is the question people should be asking in my opinion: why has nobody else been prosecuted?
Fear of a domino effect? One person rats on another. Suddenly, you got a whole bunch of powerful people in trouble. I just wish someone would leak it. How is everyone who comes in contact with this list okay with it? Like not one person is like “what the fuck?” It boggles my mind.
Generally neither am I. But I also feel no laws should protect the ultra wealthy, especially when the crimes are global. Somebody must take the powerful down and it isn’t going to be the powerful.
I guess that makes sense, use them to build a case, which just got derailed when trump took over remember Elon said Trump was in the filles which indicates he saw them. They probably got dodged into a shredder
