Do you think he's actively blocking it? Or is it possible on his list of thousands of things he's doing (220+ and counting) that he's waiting for the noms? If his admin (Bondi specifically) said on her first day in the office that it was a priority to release it, she would have the power to do so. And so did his FBI nom (Kash)- he will also have the power to do so, especially in coordination with DOJ. That leads me to believe he's doing the opposite of blocking it, he's nominated and placed people with the constitution to do it. Just my rose colored glasses, I'll admit.I agree, except how do you manage to leak that bit of info without nuking some of your own peeps in the process? I think the Epstein evidence is a like a Cold War "dead man's hand" release system or a MAD-type scenario. If it goes public, it fundamentally changes history. I don't think Trump was in on it, but I think he's blocking it because a LOT of his bro-bros are...which still makes him an accomplice or accessary after the fact.
If you're innocent, but covering up to protect someone else, then you're still guilty, just not a pedophile or sex trafficker in this case. Those are simple facts, regardless of who is involved.
It won't matter, though. If the USAID thing plays out, that's what will get him whacked and his surviving USSS detail some amazing book deals.
I totally agree in self-preservation and blocking something that could hurt you politically, but that's not what the actions of the admin lead me to believe.
