to threadjack this post, nor do I intend in any way to take laser-like focus off the heinous acts Trump vey likely committed. But insofar as I can walk and chew gum at the same time, can anyone offer me any credible explanation for why Presidents Biden and Obama didn't find someway to go after this dude? Were they just concerned it would look too political? I know part of the Epstein file was sealed for some time, but the limits of that are murky to me. I just think that these leaders must have known what an absolute psychopath Trump was/is and arguably should have found a way to prevent his rise to power. And to be clear, I'm NOT saying "Blame Biden" or "Blame Obama". On the contrary, I expect there were very good reasons why these decent and intelligent leaders weren't more active in trying to prevent Trump's candidacy. I'd love to have any ideas why (or maybe they were very much behind the scenes?).

The same goes for Trump's connection to Putin. Hillary tried so hard to warn us (but her emails . . . . ). But why not just publish the entire Mueller Report - unredacted or the Steele Dossier - unredacted?
