lol - first comment on the article: “Mike Johnson misunderstood that the current unifying cause for the United State Senate is absolute contempt of Mike Johnson.”
This makes perfect sense when you remember that voting records is what congress critters are concerned about. Anybody with a recorded No vote for the release of the Epstein file is basically dead politically post-Trump.
Mike Johnson made sure he’ll have a chance at having a political future with his vote, while trying to kowtow to his Cheeto Jesus verbally at the same time.
Don’t worry it’s only the unclassified stuff.
Although some demented rapist likes to talk shit about how he can unclassify something with the blink of an eye. Wonder if that’ll happen.
So long as the unredacted or unclassified copies stay in the someone else’s hands, it’ll happen.
Would be nice if Anonymous posted them online … any day now…
Ah but that’s the joy. Now we get to bitch and scream their own birther arguments back at them.
I’m waiting for the release of the long-form Epstein list.
I will be demanding that immediately after the first batch is released. What glorious turn-about.
Eh not really, watch the legal eagle episode about it.
There’s a provision that says if something is classified they need to formally declare to closed session the general idea of what it is and why within iirc a week.
Ed: I don’t know why I expect people to actually read the bill but this should help.
(2) All redactions must be accompanied by a written justification published in the Federal Register and submitted to Congress.
(3) To the extent that any covered information would otherwise be redacted or withheld as classified information under this section, the Attorney General shall declassify that classified information to the maximum extent possible.
(A) If the Attorney General makes a determination that covered information may not be declassified and made available in a manner that protects the national security of the United States, including methods or sources related to national security, the Attorney General shall release an unclassified summary for each of the redacted or withheld classified information.
(4) All decisions to classify any covered information after July 1, 2025 shall be published in the Federal Register and submitted to Congress, including the date of classification, the identity of the classifying authority, and an unclassified summary of the justification.
SEC. 3. Report to Congress.
Within 15 days of completion of the release required under Section 2, the Attorney General shall submit to the House and Senate Committees on the Judiciary a report listing:
(1) All categories of records released and withheld.
(2) A summary of redactions made, including legal basis.
(3) A list of all government officials and politically exposed persons named or referenced in the released materials, with no redactions permitted under subsection (b)(1).
“I’m not saying that. I don’t know,” said a frustrated Johnson, who said he opposed releasing the files on the grounds that it could reveal the identities of many of the
victimsperpetrators.Mike Johnson the fake Christian and very real pedophile protector. Johnson doesn’t think raping kids is bad, he fully supports child rape and protecting rapists.
Independent thinking leaders suddenly shift course when the boss has another meltdown.
I think that’s great news, that means they haven’t redacted it enough (I think, it could be a distraction).
Oh man, that facial expression says it all. Mike Johnson is about to have another rough week.
Poor Mikey.
