19. If you're correct that Bill Barr kept the Epstein videos for himself

... then his motive was to destroy them. If he did that ... we'll never know since it's in direct violation of several federal and state laws to destroy evidence of any kind. I believe Barr may have destroyed evidence - if he found anything that incriminated his father (not likely) or Chump (very possibly).

Of course it's all speculation and we'll never know because Barr would have no reason to reveal his guilt.

On the other hand, Barr may have buried the Epstein videos (and other evidence) somewhere deep in the vaults of Dept. of Justice ... to be discovered later after Chump is already dead or out of power. That would be a far more vindictive thing to do, and I wouldn't put it past him. Barr was pretty disgusted with Chump by December 2020 when Chump finally fired him.
