Subject: Re: Epstein - Trump is Trapped
This is the bit that -I think- is problematic. "legally hand over" implies that there's more they cannot hand over.

That's almost certainly true. Even if we set aside the "active investigation" stuff as being subject to manipulation by the Administration, some of the materials will still be under court seal - particularly all information that could identify victims of abuse. The Administration literally cannot legally disclose it, not matter what they do.

There will always be stuff they can't hand over. And even if they violated the court orders and turned over every single piece of paper, most of the folks that are aggressively calling for the Epstein Files to be released will never ever believe that it was all turned over. Because they are convinced that there's a group of wealthy and powerful people who regularly engage in pedophilia whose identities are known to the federal government and are in the Epstein Files - and until they get that list of names, they will always believe there's a cover-up.

Oh, and now a subset of Democrats have now convinced themselves that Donald Trump is himself a pedophile and that there is evidence in the Epstein Files that proves that as well, so they won't be satisfied until **that** evidence is disclosed as well (whether it exists or not).
