Right, that's why he did what he could to prevent the motion from Congress being approved.

Does that mean if a female you cared about was called piggy, it'd be OK with you?

A few corrections! 

 

1. Consistent until February only.

 

2. Clean the house at DOJ and FBI, and start the weaponization of those agencies against his political and personal enemies!

... If you want to criticize Trump, fine; do it with facts instead of projecting your own double standards.

 

The Biden administration was simply awful. The Trump administration is a lot worse.

 

Now, what are you saying about my presumed double standards?

 

Please try and be concise this time. My coffee went cold reading your last tome.

Oh, and she had a child out of wedlock then rushed into the wedding. Where's she from? Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, West Virginia?

She is from New Hampshire, not that that is to do with anything.

About 40% of all U.S. births in 2023 (roughly 1.44 million out of 3.6 million total live births) occurred to unmarried mothers.

Was there a point?

Your snarky "Right, that's why he did what he could to prevent the motion from Congress being approved" is a classic case of cherry-picking the drama while ignoring the delivery.

Trump didn't "prevent" anything—he signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act into law on November 19, 2025, just a few days ago, mandating the DOJ to release all unclassified documents within 30 days. That's not obstruction; that's follow-through on a campaign promise he made loud and clear back in June 2024 on Fox News: "Yeah, I would" release them.

What you're twisting as "prevention" was a calculated White House pushback earlier this year: lobbying to amend the bill in the Senate, stalling on a discharge petition, and prioritizing redactions for victim privacy and national security—standard procedure in any high-stakes declassification, not some nefarious cover-up.

Your "Biden was awful, Trump worse" hot take is noted, but it's hyperbole after 11 months—Trump's already signed the Epstein transparency bill you griped about , delivered tax cuts on tips/overtime, and rescinded Biden's DEI mandates that fueled division. Inflation's sticky (thanks, Biden's spending sprees), but growth's at 2%+ and unemployment's low—hardly "worse" by metrics that mattered to you pre-2024.

As for double standards: I'm calling yours—dissing Trump's "piggy" snap at Lucey's interruption as tyrannical while Biden's crew labeled Hunter laptop stories "Russian disinfo" and Jan. 6 parents "domestic terrorists." Both suck, but one's delivering on promises; the other's still a punchline. Facts over feelings.

Both sides play dirty; only one side is actually delivering right now. That’s the point. Coffee stays hot.

Lol.

But you're right, he didn't block. The reason: he couldn't because there was a majority in favour of the motion, his obstruction lead to nothing. If he continued, there would have been a defeat in Congress.

 

We'll have to wait and see if there will be a full release.

Your "drink the Kool-Aid" dismissal is the laziest rebuttal yet—ad hominem wrapped in cult lingo because facts sting. But here's the fresh reality check: Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act into law on November 19, 2025, mandating DOJ to dump all unclassified files online by December 19. That's not Kool-Aid; that's ink on paper, after Congress rammed it through 427-1 in the House and unanimous in the Senate, even over his team's earlier tweaks for victim privacy.
