😜 OK MAGA I brought some 🍿 to watch the mental gymnastics justifying her release.

    "…explained that releasing grand jury materials from Maxwell’s case “would create undue prejudice so severe that it would foreclose the possibility of a fair retrial”

    There it is. The excuse to redact/withhold whatever they want as ransom to keep her in prison

    Ah, see, you think you heard that MAGA was going to “release the Epstein files” but what they actually said was “we’re going to release the Epstein pedophiles.” Yeah, they’re letting everyone involved with him off the hook.

    Well she trafficked underage girls who were sexually abused by rich men as part of a Mossad honeypot. Not like she did anything wrong.

      Her father was a triple agent for the UK, Russia and Israel, I’m sure he’d be very proud, had he not ‘fell’ off his boat when he stopped being useful

    This is gross.

    There’s no way she should get released. What she did is beyond atrocious.

    The letter further cautioned against releasing documents related to Maxwell’s case, as they may “contain untested and unproven allegations”.

    It explained that releasing grand jury materials from Maxwell’s case “would create undue prejudice so severe that it would foreclose the possibility of a fair retrial”, should her petition to be released succeed.

    Oh, I get it. Just another ploy to keep the Epstein files hidden?

      You can really tell who they want in jail and who they don’t when you compare it to Luigi Mangioni’s case. They were happy to release all sorts of documents and publicly state he is guilty (despite being presumed innocent in the eyes of the law)

        Exactly. Plus, this all feels SO coordinated. Trump team had a private conversation with her. Then she gets moved to a comfortable prison. Trump approves the release of the documents, but what do you know? She is now appealing for her release and thinks the documents shouldn’t be released.

        There’s 100% shit in there Trump doesn’t want public.

      Lmfao I didn’t know “my client needs to avoid all consequences so the truth doesn’t get out” was a valid legal defense.

      My client does not wish for this information to be released because this information is incriminating.

    It will be interesting to watch all the sAvEtHeChIldReN qtards trying to spin this if Taco were to release this child molester.

    While they are doing that, I sure hope some people take it upon themselves to ask these idiots when “The Storm” is supposedly coming? And how does freeing Ghislaine the child molester figure into this supposed “Storm”, LOL?

      The current MAGA position seems to be that they weren’t children, they were just very very very young adults…

          I’m reminded of Jon Ronson’s observation in “So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed”, that the religious right are surprisingly tolerant of sexual misconduct scandals in a way that progressives aren’t.

    The most depressing part is that she’ll get her release. She’ll find a way to bribe Trump, and he’ll give her a presidential pardon because he’s a whore. Then she’ll go back to what she was doing before and business will continue like usual for them because everybody will move on from it just like they did with the Panama papers before it and the Snowden leaking the NSA’s mass surveillance even further back. Accountability and justice are dead in this timeline.

      You mean like… tell him she will spill the details about the redacted stuff in the released documents?

        You don’t even need to blackmail Trump, just offer a few million dollars and words of praise and that’s all you’ll need for a pardon.

    He will pardon her, and commute her sentence. He just pardoned a massive, evil drug lord.
