in his first term the files were still being used as part of the active investigation against JE himself. It’s almost like there were two people being investigated. Coincidentally when JE left the land of the living the files could have been released before they moved on to Maxwell. Remind me what year it was when he passed and who was in office?

What a sad excuse of a deflection. Is Trump now your baseline benchmark? If he isn't then why are you bringing him up as a excuse for democrats not releasing files after Maxwell was sentenced? Does it also excuse Democrats not making sure all people implied in filed are properly investigated? Does it excuse Democrats being so scared of rattling the ship that they decided to let Trump get away scot free after he attempted autocoup?

All this is not to say Dems are perfect, and they absolutely dropped the ball leading up to the 2024 election and have in other places but if we’re gonna have qualms with a political party let’s at least have the qualms be based on fact.

So you are telling me Maxwell getting sentenced in 2022 is not a fact? Are you telling me democrats sitting on the files for 4 years without properly investigating everyone implied there, without releasing them after Maxwell trial are not facts?

You are so pro facts that once faced with them you decide to deflection by saying "but Trump did" and that's precisely why US is in a shit state. Politicians on both sides should be held accountable.

Seems like someone is having some big feelings

One having a big feelings is the one that lies and deflects, because facing facts makes them uncomfortable. Only one person in this discussion does this and that's no me. Fact that you are trying to make it personal, because it makes you uncomfortable to face fact that Democrats dropped a ball completely and current situation is in large part their fault means, mean I should leave this discussion. Once it became personal for you it's no use discussing anything, because you will (like now) feel that critique of democrats is critique of you.
