President Donald Trump's Attorney General teased the release of Jeffrey Epstein's client list.

"It's sitting on my desk right now to review," Attorney General Pam Bondi told Fox News during an interview.

There was never some grand master “list” that was kept by Epstein; there simply is a massive investigative file with a lot of names (most innocent, some not) and information.

...who insisted there was a list that just so happened to only include prominent Democrats and liberals, and definitely not any Republicans.

Trump ran on releasing this mythical "list" so when he was elected, his base started to demand the DOJ release the list.

The problem was there wasn't actually a list and eventually Bondi had to cop to that inconvenient fact.

There of course is a file that most likely contains numerous references to Trump, but you know that will never be released.

Polygraph maxwell
And do it now! I don't care if that is inadmissible in court. The CIA does it for clearance work. That's good enough for me!

FYI:

The CIA does use polygraph examinations as part of its security clearance process.

There are two main types typically employed:

1. Counterintelligence (CI) Polygraph – focused on whether an applicant has had contact with foreign intelligence services, unauthorized disclosure of classified information, or involvement in espionage, sabotage, or terrorism.


2. Lifestyle Polygraph – addresses personal behavior that could make someone vulnerable to coercion or blackmail, such as drug use, undisclosed criminal activity, or serious personal misconduct.



Applicants for positions that require access to highly classified programs (including Top Secret / SCI clearances) are often subject to one or both types.

The CIA is one of several intelligence agencies (along with NSA and parts of DoD) that makes routine use of polygraph screening for both initial vetting and periodic re-investigations.

While the polygraph’s scientific reliability is debated, within the U.S. intelligence community it is still considered a mandatory security tool.

then they will pass a polygraph with flying colors.
They truly believe their lies, therefore they react as if they are telling the truth.

EVERYTHING she says is such.

She also says she is innocent of the crimes she was convicted of, and we can rightly determine that to be false based on the evidence made public through the trial. So we know she lies, brazenly.

She simply isn't a reliable source of information. Outside evidence must be brought to bear for any claim she makes, if the claim is to be believed sufficiently to act upon or change an opinion.

Absent outside evidence, every statement she makes is by itself a nothingburger (even if she outed The Dotard as a pedo that standard would still hold -- though in that specific case some outside evidence already exists in the public record).

And getting rewarded for it with club fed treatment.

MAGAts should be protesting with us if they had any brains.
