  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

It is almost as if he doesn't realize that Pam Bondi is the only prosecutor in the United States. The information is out to the public, so why hasn't any other AG done anything?
Good point! Even Latoya James understood and tried that. It backfired, but she tried.

Quoted for truth, my brother.

Seems it's all about a smear campaign to portray Trump and his administration as being in cahoots with those involved in assaulting children and sex trafficking. The accusation being that Trump, Bondi, Patel etc are protecting their billionaire pedophile buddies. It seems the plan is that in 2026 voting for Republicans should be viewed as voting for pedophile sex traffickers and their friends. Probably as soon as the Election is over the Epstein files will fade from the media.

This has nothing to do with Trump.
Why do you wish to make it so?
Has Trump been victimized by other Nations prosecuting and firing people who were found to be closely associated with Mr Epstein?

Game of Thrones or House of Cards, are theatrical-politics; trying to wedge legitimate legal moves, made in other countries, into a “poor-Trump” argument is weak sauce.

Go through the threads about the Epstein files and count how many times you see "Trump". Compare that to how many times you see "victims". That's what makes it about Trump. It's not a matter of "poor Trump" it's a matter of smear campaign propaganda. Trump is evil, his administration is evil, the republican party is evil, so don't vote for evil, vote Democrat. Republicans are pedophiles is being tacked onto Republicans are racists etc.

If you’d like to argue about what a bum rap President Trump got…please feel free to do so.

I don’t see it that way, but what do I know?

President Trump usually gets mad when he isn't mentioned or the center of attention.

I guess that explains why they didn't bother to interview victims

Because Trump is in charge NOW.

This thread is about NOW....and rje only deflection that gets offered is (but what about the last 20 years). Well bonding was the ag of Florida while all this bad studd was going on, ask her where she was.

Or actually don't and see if there you can answer the question of the op.
It's such a weird argument that because it was not dealt with properly before, Trump and company should get a free pass now.

You don't know what I'm saying if you think I feel sorry for Trump. Not everyone who's tired of radical liberalism and all its nuttiness and desperation is a MAGA, or a Trump fan, or even a Republican.

Why shouldn't they get the same free pass as every other administration?

I am getting this "angry mob out for blood" vibe from both the left and the right. Like a mob with pitchforks and torches trying to storm Frankenstein's castle only to discover that the monster is gone. So they go after the Mayor instead.

So perhaps my answer to your question is.... Someone.
You can't just arrest "someone". Unlike some of these other countries you can't arrest on suspicion. You have to have probable cause that they actually committed a crime.

Hanging out with or emailing Epstien is not a crime.

I most certainly want whomever was involved in pedophilia or was involved in other crimes, financial, illegally providing government documents or information to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. But you don't have any clue who shoild be prosecuted and you don't know what the DOJ has or knows or has or has not investigated and you have no idea what has been ot has not been discovered.

We want CRIMES charged. Not suspicion.

Now, back to you....why do you think all these two bit countries are able to get charges laid against their people but the DOJ can't seem to muster it?
Perhaps the simple answer is that because of our constitutional rights and a judicial system that places a much higher burden on prosecutors there either isn't enough evidence to convict anyone yet, or prosecutors are just trying to get their ducks in a row.

Are you seriously going to try to make it sound like it's conservatives that are trying to make this about Trump? In the previous page of this thread alone, I see him mentioned and blamed in post #81, 83, 85, 88, 95, and 98. I won't even bother to check the previous 4 pages. You should get the point by now.

I think the idea is pointing that out is supposed to come off as making Trump into a martyr.
