Wiz Imp

40. There is no indication that the House will do a full investigation of this.

Besides, there is no need for the House to do an investigation. Investigations were done by the FBI and DOJ, the results of which already exist in the files. What needs to be done is a public release of those files.

The House Oversight Committee is in control of this and to this point the Republicans on the committee have essentially refused to release anything of significance that wasn't previously released. That is until the stuff they released today. But while there are some significant implications from some of the documents released today, there's still nothing incriminating against anyone. They have not and by all indications will not release documents which actually name the people involved until or unless they are forced to.

OK. This explains why those files got released today. They came from the Epstein estate, NOT the DOJ Wiz Imp 9 hrs ago #42
