WASHINGTON – U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said today that the Department of Justice will not release all of the Epstein Files today, as required by the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

You may recall that law passed unanimously in the Senate and only one vote shy of a unanimous vote in the House. It is unequivocal. You can read the excuses offered by Blanche here for not abiding by the law.

That is what they are. Excuses. Essentially, Blanche said “screw you” to the American people. Believe me, the feeling is mutual. But there’s good news. The GOP is hopelessly on its heels because, well, they’ve fallen in line with a megalomaniac for a bit too long. So, we are now positioned to flip the script on them. And we have no restraints! There is no law anymore!

If the nation’s chief law enforcement officers of our land don’t have to follow our laws, neither do we. From here on, I’ll do what the hell I want. There is not a law that I now believe applies to me, whether it’s jaywalking or terrorism. I think I might go run a red light, just because I can.

Actually, I have no malicious intentions against anyone. But that is all that is stopping me from causing mischief though, as Blanche, Bondi and the whole Brood of Vipers in the White House and at the DOJ have now normalized criminal behavior. It is sad that they can’t restrain themselves from law-breaking like the rest of us are expected to do.

So, I salute Bondi and Blanche appropriately for the people they are, what they have done to the Rule of Law and the U.S. Constitution.
