Perhaps she should've thought about that when she was cheerleading the crowd of neocons who are perpetrating all of this.

I'm not a lawyer, but unless they have reasonable evidence the crimes occurred on their states, the state prosecutors can't do anything.

The DOJ has that evidence, they have been ordered to release it and they refuse. Prosecutors can't ask for underacted files "just in case"

That's why people are demanding the files, so people can be arrested.

I'm honestly surprised how backwards you got it.

"Release The Epstein Files"

"Also, this is not useful information for any actionable outcome"

On their states. Please take the full quote.

Last line is yours, not mine. Also false. They can't investigate of they don't even know who's who. That's the whole point.

DOJ has the files and the legal obligation to release them with very limited restriction. Somehow they don't feel like doing it. That on itself should be a major scandal, regardless of the contents.

But hey, if you think Epstein was condemned for human trafficking but had no associate or customer, you're a special case.

They can’t investigate of they don’t even know who’s who.

There's a laundry list of suspects.

Ffs, the Brits didn't have a problem going after Mandelson. Even (ex-)Prince Charles.

Nobody in the US is doing anything because nobody wants to do anything.
