Fuck Joe Rogan.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Yes, but I love how he won't let this die.
Don't be so sure. Everybody has a price, and this guy already sold his soul to MAGA once.
There are a few other conservative podcast hosts who kind of seem to see the writing on the wall with Trump. The economy in several states are seeing drops in GDP, Trump isn't destroying the "right" parts of government, and Trump is supporting Israel.
The Epstein files are the easiest way for them to break with Trump.
It's called an off ramp. Or an offloading ramp or such.
They'll never admit that they hate all the shit he's done, because that's what he promised to do.
But they can say, "gee golly, I didn't know about the blatant pedo shit" even though the blatant pedo shit has been public record for decades now.
Eh, doubt he would have raised his voice if it didn’t cross his moral boundary; however loose that may be
Have you ever heard of Fidesz, the party running Hungary down one and a half decade now stealing what can be moved and serving Russian interest? There was a guy called Németh Szilárd (hope I don’t confuse the names over), he built a media empire (on hungarian scale) and had no issues with broadcasting propaganda and swallowing billions over this one and half decade… Then one day suddenly his media empire started being mildly anti-fidesz for about half a year (thats how long it took until it was taken away from him)! Apparently his moral boundary allowed for stealing, but not pointless destruction… Not that would ever save him from the noose, when/if this system ever fails…
The administration's next move could be to, uh, release the Epstein files?
His base would have thought nothing of it, had they just gone and released the files from the get-go. MAGA Republicans would be like "yeah, Trump's been on Epstein's island and done stuff with underage girls." and more or less shrug it off. Then they would deflect and look at all the other people implicated (whatabout DeMoCrAtS), and then proceed to summarily forget about the whole matter for the next identity politics outrage.
Trump's self-consciousness over releasing the files implicating him and other Republicans is far worse for his base.
Hey Trump aides, you can end all this real quick simply by releasing the files. After all, Trump's innocent, right?
The gathering will include Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and FBI Director Kash Patel, according to three sources familiar with the plans.
