Episode notes
Epstein Files Challenge Political Narratives
- The Epstein files include many Republicans and wealthy figures, undermining the idea they'll only incriminate Democrats.
- Released documents show plans and references but do not prove visits or crimes by named individuals.
Push For Full File Transparency
- Demand full release of the Epstein files to know the truth rather than speculate from fragments.
- Treat names in released snippets cautiously until the entire context is available.
Files Could Hurt Republicans More
- Political fallout depends on who appears in the files and how central those figures are to each party.
- Republicans may suffer more because their party revolves more around a single figure, Donald Trump.
