  • 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.

Biden didn't run on releasing anything Epstein. Trump did. So did his head and second in command at the FBI.
Show where Trump ran on releasing the Epstein files. It must be a proclamation he made during his campaign rallies the way you're putting it, so where is it?

You can have a spirited debate without being pugnacious.
There's no reason for anyone to make up what's already written.

Okay, e, let's review. Paul Manafort did in fact admit to working with Russians given the Trump campaign. Trump's inner circle did in fact meet at Trump To

Yep it was big drama nearly ten years ago, and has nothing to do with the Epstein files.

I was responding to what you quoted. Did you put it in the wrong thread?
No way back on the first page I made a silly throw away quip: "Epsteingate, from the people who brought you Russiagate". The rest is off topic derail history.

It's a good thing I didn't make a remark about the Epstein files and Dinty Moore, because then half of this thread would be a discussion about beef stew.

False implications about very important things like the Trump campaign / Russia investigations really should be challenged.

If otoh you had falsely claimed Dinty Moore is healthy and delicious, I probably would have let that slide.

I couldn't believe anyone would argue that because the girls being molested were in their early teens, it's not that big a deal. But there it is.

That is a notice by the FBI under the admin who is doing everything they can to keep things from the public. Take with one two grains of salt.
That memo was just a short while ago. Now they are investigating people. If they bring a case against anyone it will probably be deemed malicious as it was ordered on social media by the president and given a response that they are following said orders.

I don't think any of the victims have accused Clinton though.
Apparently, a phrase in the emails has led to a truly filthy story about Trump and Bill Clinton together. But Clinton has denied it. And he surely wouldn't lie about something like that.

Epsteins brother said it wasn't Clinton, but didn't say who it was. Other people have said it was a donor with rhe nickname Bubba.
Don't believe it. Clinton may be a slimeball, but even he has limits.

The fact that Trump was caught creeping into the dressing room of under-aged females (he even privately bragged about it) does indicate that he was interested. So motive plus opportunity...
Trying to sow chaos again. Even Biden didn't find anything. And he had it for four years.

Yeah. I dont think the left cares all that much. They know there is nothing there. If there were Biden would have released it in a second.

They are just happy to sow chaos. They love it when the Republicans are fighting. Just like we love it when the Democrats are fighting.

I mean seriously. I mean what are you going to do when you find out foreign dignitaries were involved? Demand They all be arrested? You think thats going to happen?

Once one gets caught at something like that, people always suspect the same person. It's not just creeping into girls' dressing rooms. A court found that he had sexually assaulted a woman. Why do you think Americans suspect that he's guilty?

Nearly half of Americans believe Trump was ‘involved with Epstein’s crimes’, new poll finds

Trump’s overall job approval as president sits at 40 percent, the poll found


Trump has been embroiled in ongoing controversy over his handling of files related to Epstein. Initially, the White House ordered a review of the case and said it would publish names and evidence about Epstein's associates. However, a July memo by the FBI and Justice Department said there was no Epstein "client list" and that no further charges would be brought. The announcement triggered a backlash among those who called for more transparency about the case.

Even Biden didn't find anything. And he had it for four years.
What makes you think he was looking? Not every politician is crooked enough to weaponize the Justice Department. Biden had the Trump pandemic and an economic disaster to deal with when he took office.

Lost his commission, titles, and property. In the UK, the government isn't covering up for highly placed pedophiles.

In a sharp reversal, President Donald Trump said late Sunday that House Republicans should support a measure that would require the Justice Department to release the information it has related to its investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein — after key lawmakers said support was building ahead of a closely watched vote.


It's refreshing to see Republicans finally exercise their Constitutional power to counter the Executive Branch. It may be a first under the Trump era.
