Attorney General Pam Bondi has been threatened with jail time if she doesnt cough up the full Epstein Files by Fridays deadline.
Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna made the pointed threat on Thursday evening in an X video ahead of the 11:59 PM deadline.
Khanna, whose Epstein Transparency Act spearheaded the charge towards the release, said: Let me be very clear, we need a full release. Anyone who tampers [with] documents, or conceals documents, or engages in excessive redaction will be prosecuted because of obstruction of justice.
He then asserted: We will prosecute individuals regardless of whether theyre the attorney general, or a career or political appointee. We need full transparency and justice for the survivors.
He added in his written post: Any person who attempts to conceal or scrub the files will be subject to prosecution under the law.

(44,738 posts)Christian Conservative Republicans voted for this and continue to not give a fuck about our country. They voted for a convicted felon, rapist and life long con man with pedophile accusations wafting about him.

A blanket pass on every rotten thing he's said and done because rotten people say and do rotten things, and hey...look at all of the great things about him.
I'm still looking. Haven't found any.

(647 posts)Their attitude is this: "The man wearing a dress, standing in the pulpit, said God sent a criminal and a pedophile to protect us from criminals and pedophiles. That's good enough for me."

(44,738 posts)Its so comforting that whats good for morons has to be good enough for you and me. And I can rant on about politics from the pulpit but I wont. We cut out the middle man and do our charitable work solo.

Please understand this and get behind our Great President, appointed by God himself. These mere imperfections of the great and power President Trump are merely distractions to test our faith in the Great Leader, not unlike fossils that are said to be 80 million years old, they are tricks put there by the Devil to try to make people believe the earth is older than 6,000 years old. The pedophile evidence was placed there by Satan to make us doubt the 2nd messiah, the greatest of them all and ever, Donald J Trump.
Sincerely,
Right Wing Christians

Trump is an 80 million year old fossil?
Back in the 80s I discovered My widowed Grandmother who got by on a Soldiers retirement and cleaning houses for the rich folks in town was regularly sending money to Oral Roberts. Stuff like that has made me the non church going charitable giving constitution thumping radical I am today.

How would that work?

(13,431 posts)special prosecutor. That is the problem right now, too much power no matter how unpopular he is. The feckless republicans could rally with dems to impeach him and others but that is never going to happen.
Republicans CAN do the right thing but they wont. Because they are republicans. Fuck America, we got conservative valuuuues.
