The US has recommenced its bombing of Iran — less than a week after Trump’s ‘justice’ department (DOJ) blocked a court-ordered release of further Epstein files.
Epstein revelations, or Trump’s attempts to avoid them, have been so synchronised with the US-Israel war on Iran that it has been dubbed “Operation Epstein Distraction”. The attacks breach the US’s commitments under its ‘Memorandum of Understanding‘ with Iran.

Iran should do everything in their power to get a hold of these documents and give them to the world.
They’d do better to threaten that and just use the leverage.
How would they convince Israel to give them those?
This headline. Love it.
That’s the way you connect these two things. EVERY outlet should be doing the same fucking thing.
Good lord, literally everyone knows what’s in the files, we know it’s awful, they should just release them it won’t change the base they will keep making excuses, and the distractions are pointless now.
Trump wasn’t wrong when he said he could shoot someone on 5th avenue, this can’t be a lot worse, they should just release everything and then move on. They aren’t going to take him down.
Yep. He could have released them at the start and said they’re all lies, and many would have believed him.
But every time he fights it, he looks more guilty.
“Jeffrey Epstein Memorial War” is my favorite alternate name.
Because fuck subtlety
If you had told me all this whole thing around trump 20yrs ago I would’ve laughed at your silly ass. And here I stand now, lacking the correct adjective of how I’m feeling about this reality.
And I’m not even a US-american…
US American here
Deeply involved in politics for decades
Watched rise of trump up close
Expected Badness … but not this insanity
When did you learn about Project 2025?
Yeah, even as stupid as the average redneck is in the United States, I never thought even they’d fall for the schtick of the washed-up Manhattan personality best known for failing at running a casino, being on Stern saying edgy things and for having small hands.
At least up until he was given a game show to pretend to be a businessman. I think the veneer of “reality television” fooled a lot of people into thinking he was a billionaire who was good at business.
But even after that, I figured a washed-up, fake-tan, fake-blond combover con-man like him was a bridge too far even for the rednecks.
Trump going on a tirade about all the tomahawks he’s going to fire loses some steam after the tenth time he does it.
At this point, I would genuinely like to see some kind of critical analysis regarding the effectiveness of these attacks, relatively. Because all I’m hearing - from Kiev to Riyadh to Seoul - is that interceptor missiles are in short supply and (relatively) cheap drones and ballistics have become shockingly effective at this stage of the game.
They also did another “UFO” material drop a few days ago.
Totally not an obvious distraction tactic - absolutely not, no way.
The UFO stuff is having zero impact as far as I can tell, anyone it’s distracting wasn’t paying attention in the first place
I think I’m thinking of the same thing, and it turns out the “aliens” that the WH was referring to were the “illegal immigrants” taking all the jobs or whatever tf. Disgusting behavior. On the official WH site!!
This whole “we can’t stop screaming about our pedophile president yet are too corrupt for actual consequences, too complacent for action and too stupid to not be distracted by yet another war the moronic orange started”-shitshow gets boring after a while. And for the people directly affected by your wars it’s even worse. How about you actually fix your corrupt authoritarian state or shut up and live with the failed state you are seemingly too lazy to do anything against?
The Trump cultists walked right into the capital. Now that the regime is once again bombing innocent people in faraway countries the people just moan and go “but the files!”
Fuck the files. Do something. If what’s already been released, coupled with the despot’s history isn’t enough, nothing will ever be.
Iran should make a very public counter that starts at the dollar amount the US has already agreed to pay in reparations and then increases by the cost of the damage every time the US strikes
