The intrigue: The “Rule of Five” law allows any five members of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee to request federal agencies to provide information about “any matter within the jurisdiction of the committee.”

Going nowhere in 3… 2…
Sure, keep the victims private, but don’t give them free license to redact shit.
The list is released with all names redacted. Because the right would consider anyone on the list as a victim, even those who committed crimes.
Ding ding ding. Nixon tapes pt 2 pedophile boogaloo
This is obviously the answer to why the victim count went up and the perpetrator count went down to 2, soon to be 1. They’re interpreting Trump as a victim and trying to figure out how to argue that he is a victim, but Clinton isn’t to throw meat to the wolves.
There are not 1000s of women at a brothel, but there may be 1000s of johns.
And Democrats will fall for it again. They’ll go after Clinton, because that is the high road. Everyone on the list needs to be brought to whatever justice is due.
Just like the Panama papers… sigh.
There’s actually been a guy to go to prison over the Panama Papers. Sorry, he went to jail over paying to have a journalist murdered.
They still haven’t had the trial yet, but the jackass spent 6 years in jail before they granted him bail.
His henchmen in the murder are all some form of sentence with one of them having turned state’s witness.
The coverup is often worse than the crime. I say often because Trump is try to cover up an extremely serious crime. Or rather a bunch of them.
We wouldn’t want to hurt their reputation, would we/s
Good news they’ll just use black highlight instead of actually redacting anything.
Seeing at how incompetent DOGE was. This is totally plausible.
It literally happened
Trumpie truly does surround himself with the best.
Honestly, I’m imagining a ridiculous scenario where the victims get protection and their names are accidentally outed in the Epstein files. Imagine all the Trumpers going off to threaten these victims and being shot dead for it. Solves so many problems all at once.
Sigh.
I’m not 100% sure he means from their redactions? I think the law only allows senators access to the files, so he might be meaning senators / senator staff releasing it after getting it then redacting victim names?
In either case, doing this still keeps it in the news which hurts Trump. Senate Dems can and should keep doing everything like this instead of Schumer’s previous strategy of stuff like caving on the CR for no reason. This is notable improvement from senate dems even compared to recently
Especially because house dems have shown more fight. They were far more aggressive in trying to force votes on releasing the files which lead to Republicans just shutting down the house instead of voting on it. Which both works to show Republicans are complicit and stops them from pushing through worse bills for an extra few weeks. Senate dems tried a couple of unanimous consent votes, but didn’t see it quite to the level of house dems forcing amendment votes in every committee on damn near everything
What he means vs. what he said. The GOP can twist it so that they follow the letter of his words, not the spirit of his intent.
They don’t want the billionaires to be victims of cancel culture.
Schumer’s on the list.
