Does anyone have an explanation

[Disaffected]

why no names in the Epstein Files have been leaked (AFAIK) with the only known probable perps being Trump and Randy Andy?

What with the literally hundreds of people who apparently participated in the perusing and redacting of the files, one would think at least a couple of names would have seeped out by now. Or why not from members of Congress and their staff? Or the victims? Or people who worked for Epstein and on his island? Or the police who investigated Epstein?

Meanwhile the MSM seems to have lost interest in it which is exactly I guess what the Repubs want to accomplish.

1. $$$$$

Likely payoffs

3. Everybody?

Seems unlikely IMO.

11. They are rich enough.

Buy off who they need to, but probably threaten most. It's cheaper.

2. Urge Massie to read the names from the floor of the House.

5. I wish someone would but,

who wants to be a dead-man-walking? Leaks wouldn't be as definitive but a lot safer.

4. Look at what happened to Carmen Mercedes Lineberger, managing assistant U.S. attorney in Fort Pierce, Florida,

for allegedly attempting to steal a sealed report prepared by Jack Smith on Trump's retention of classified documents. She's been indicted and charged with four felony counts.

6. Plenty of names have come out.

These names were all explicitly named as being tracked by the FBI (meaning there were what were considered redible accusations made against each of them):
Trump
Harvey Weinstein
Glen Dubin
Prince Andrew
Jes Staley
Leon Black
Les Wexner
Alan Dershowitz
Howard Lutnick
William Barr
The media has absolutely not lost interest. It continues to be discussed on MSNOW daily. Sarah Kellen (who worked for Epstein and was named as a co-conspirator in the sweetheart deal but claims she was also a victim) will be testifying before the House Oversight Committee tomorrow.

10. Kevin Warsh's name comes up more than once, too, and yet he was confirmed so damn easily.

Elon Musk has several emails in there in which he expresses interest in going to party (which he recently tried to walk back), and of course, there was no actual action taken against him. Too much money, after all.

There’s also the guy who told Epstein he “loved the torture video” (who I believe was also foreign, like Andrew, though his name eludes me at the moment)...among others I’m sure I’m forgetting.

12. There's also Brock Pierce. Former child actor now crypto billionaire.

He was front and center at Trump's statue unveiling recently...

13. OK but are they connected to pedophilia or

associated with Epstein in some other non-illegal way? Lutnick for example visited Epstein's island a couple of times but that in itself is not a crime.

14. Try reading what I said again. These aren't people simply "associated" with Epstein.

I explicitly said "These names were all explicitly named as being tracked by the FBI (meaning there were what were considered credible accusations made against each of them)". It should be obvious that if the FBI was trcking them due to credible accusation then that means they were suspected of committing crimes.

A redacted accuser accused Lutnick of making his money through ponzi schemes and money laundering. Epstein sold Lutnick a home for 10 dollars which was then sold by Epstein for millions.

A redacted accuser said Leon Black raped her numerous times and sex trafficked her.

and so on... All were explicitly accused of committing crimes directly connected to Epstein.

8. Presence in the files alone does not mean a crime occurred

Only the victims really know, and if they say anything, they will be mercilessly sued. Lawfare risk...

9. Not just money.

If you cross him, he has people who will hurt you or your family.

I call them the goon squad.
