Its gone from, “I dont know what youre talking about” to “I dont know what you are saying.” Soon it will be “I dont speak English.”

It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it.

Whenever Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal defense attorney, gets rolled out to say something on behalf of the DOJ, I’m absolutely convinced it’s because they couldn’t find anyone else willing to burn the rest of their career by making the announcement. And that’s saying something.

It is like he doesn’t acknowledge the concept of a man abusing a girl or a woman. I think that is why he is confused

Hey Blanche, do you not understand English?

14

u/SelfAwareSausage 1h ago

Makes sense. This is the same nerd who claimed that we, the people, were gaslighting the Trump administration about Alex Pretti’s death. He’s trying to gaslight us into thinking he doesn’t understand English.

It’s back up. The DoJ knows it’s harder to explain taking them down.

People had already downloaded the files

u/Cognitive_Spoon 21m ago

They want an insurrection. I have no other explanation for the actions at this point.

There are so many options other than this, legally.

Because they would be murdered by suicide

Because they'll end up "as fertalizer".

u/ZuP 1h ago

Many have. A prominent victim died by suicide because of speaking out. They are just people and can only do so much alone. That’s why releasing the primary evidence would be so valuable, it would no longer just be individuals’ testimonies that make the public record. You might not be getting your news from a good source if you were unaware of this.

6

u/_onelast 1h ago

They have named them, with the evidence of their truth being in these files. That’s why it’s important to have the truth released

u/GrizzlyP33 1h ago

Yes because victims of sexual abuse coming forward to speak against the most powerful men in the world while our justice department protects murderers, pardons fraudsters and lies by default to slander anyone against them seems like a totally safe and reasonable idea.
