In his first month back in office, President Trump turned many of his campaign promises into promises kept. He has empowered DOGE to cut unnecessary bureaucratic bloat, he has taken swift action on the border, and he has gone full bore against DEI and everything that comes with it. On top of all this, he has also placed a fairly aggressive cabinet, at least when it comes to going against the swamp, which it is, in record time, with very little Republican pushback. But as much as these wins have soothed the souls of right-wing Americans fed up with the last four years of Biden/Harris nonsense, the previous week, the new administration was stopped by the deep state from delivering on one of those promises.
One of the things I, as an avid hater of the State, was so excited about when Trump got elected was that we were finally going to have a government that valued transparency. More specifically, I was overjoyed to hear that finally, after literally decades of operating in the shadows, some of the world’s worst actors were going to have to face the music. These actors include everyone involved in the JFK/RFK assassinations, everyone involved in the MLK Jr. assassination, and most important of all, everyone involved in the pedophilic sex-trafficking ring that Jeffery Epstein ran, without consequence, for years. Unfortunately, despite the excitement, no new information has come to light regarding these issues.
Now, for full transparency on my end, having worked with classified material in my previous military career, I understand the importance of operational security (OPSEC). In lay terms, this simply means protecting any information that an enemy actor can use to harm or endanger people or ongoing/future operations; and it is pretty damn important. With that said, the fact that these files remain in the shadows is not an OPSEC issue. Case in point, the names of witnesses and victims in these classified files can often be changed or replaced with code words to maintain anonymity as they are being drawn up. Therefore, everyone using this excuse for the slow rollout is lying.
So, what is the real reason these files have not been released, and who is to blame? Let’s examine this by focusing specifically on the Epstein files.
According to my analyses of the situation, there are three primary suspects behind this failure of government transparency: the intelligence agencies, influential members of Congress, and Attorney General Pam Bondi herself.
Beginning with the intelligence agencies, it is common knowledge at this point that they lie to the American people regularly and sometimes even engage in borderline treason. Examples of this include the CIA planning false flag bombing attacks in Miami, the FBI sending a letter to MLK Jr. telling him to kill himself, the Steele Dossier, the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up, and so much more. In a previous article I wrote, I discovered that they even fabricated evidence of UFOs back in the day to cover up new aircraft that the Air Force was testing. So, yeah, they are generally pretty untrustworthy, but why would they hide these files specifically?
You can call me a right-wing nutjob conspiracy theorist, but given what we know about our intelligence agencies engaging in blackmail and entrapment in the past, I don’t think it is a far stretch to say that they may have been involved. I mean, we can drop a non-explosive sword bomb on a balcony 6,000 miles away, but the most powerful intelligence apparatus in human history had no idea what Jeffrey Epstein, who was an FBI informant at the time, by the way, was up to? Anyone with even the slightest finger on the pulse of American politics knows that is unparalleled nonsense.
Of course, in all fairness, there is also an argument to be made that we really didn’t know because it was one of our allies involved in his blackmail efforts and not our intel agencies, but this just doesn’t pass the sniff test in a post-9/11 world, in which all of the big five nations work together intimately on the intelligence front. Ergo, even if some other countries’ intelligence agencies did the heavy lifting and spying on/blackmailing influential people, there is virtually no chance our agencies didn’t know about it. I digress.
If the intelligence agencies were involved in the Epstein scheme, it is obvious why they would want to hide it. This brings us to the second group of suspects: influential members of Congress.
Over the last few years, Congress has had a disapproval rating that averages about 80 percent. Combine that with the fact that most of the congress members go into office broke and come out millionaires, as well as the fact that they have an immense slush fund dedicated to silencing their victims, and you start to see them more as villains than public servants. Yet, they control the purse strings in Washington, they have the power to send us to war, and they can even impeach a sitting president based on nothing but conjecture. In other words, they are, on average, a highly suspect group that is both extremely powerful and extremely untrustworthy. They are the perfect targets for someone trying to score some blackmail while they have their guard down on a hidden island, if you ask me anyway.
If highly influential members of Congress were involved with Epstein, then the Epstein files could be a smoking gun that could end their political careers or even send them to prison. Thus, it makes sense why they would push to keep them hidden. Another thing to consider is who their friends/donors are. Put another way, even if members of Congress abstained from dealing with Epstein, did all of the powerful and wealthy people they owe favors to abstain as well?
Without all of the files in my hand, this is all just hypothesizing, but based on who can block the release of the files and who has the motive to do so, Congress and the intelligence agencies are sturdy suspects. At any rate, the final suspect I want to discuss is the newly confirmed AG herself, Pam Bondi.
I’ll be honest, this one is a bit weird because Pam Bondi seems to be pretty loyal to President Trump and his agenda. However, there are a few inconsistencies with her story. To elaborate, before the “Phase 1” rollout, AG Bondi stated that the files were on her desk and that what Epstein did was sick and disgusting, but since these statements, she has contradicted herself and said that the FBI misled her and that they are hiding thousands of documents from her.
In case you didn’t notice, one of these things has to be a lie. The question is whether she lied about having the documents in the first place or if she does have them and is lying about the FBI misleading her. Pure and simple, we cannot determine why she lied until we know what exactly she lied about. For example, if she lied about having the documents, it could be because she was overzealous and made a mistake counting her chickens before they hatched. Alternatively, maybe she does have the files and decided not to release them because high-level individuals within our government were implicated, or even one of our allies. That, or maybe one of the other two suspects pressured her into slowing the rollout.
The truth is that we may never know who is truly holding back these files or why. But be that as it may, we have enough information regarding motives and the ability to deduce a few likely suspects. Maybe it is one of them, none of them, or even all of them working in cahoots.
An even farther-fetched theory is that maybe there aren’t any more documents because they were all kept analog by the FBI and have since been destroyed. Either way, this anti-climactic document release has been unfortunate for an administration this early in its tenure.
Don’t lose hope, though. There are still a lot of cards left to be played by the Trump administration, and with Kash Patel leading the charge with Dan Bongino at his side, even if the documents were destroyed, we may yet see justice served to those responsible for this suspected cover-up and a new investigation into his client list; or I am just impatient and a nice, juicy stack of Epstein files will be released any day now. Only time will tell.
