Why didn't Biden release the Epstein files?

Oh, come on. Trump and His Base spent years bellyaching about Papadopoulos getting entirely justified surveillance. There was plenty of reasons including Trump inciting and armed revolt just before Biden took office. Can you imagine what kind of a storm releasing Epstein files would have caused Biden?
msgodel•1d ago
It's obviously a MAD situation and everyone's in them.

The whole point of Trump was to just steamroll over this sort of thing and ignore the criticism. To see him cowering from it is incredibly disappointing.

> The whole point of Trump was to just steamroll over this sort of thing and ignore the criticism.

Sorry, you've misunderstood: the whole point of Trump is to benefit Trump. Anyone else who benefits and any other positive outcomes are purely coincidental.

msgodel•22h ago
Yes I meant from the voter's perspective obviously.
PaulHoule•23h ago
Didn't want to blow the lid off for a lot of people.

Wasn't "out to get" Trump because if we was out to get Trump (or anybody important out to get Trump) he wouldn't have gotten away with Jan 6.

Trump is in trouble because he promised a lot and didn't deliver and if he does deliver, his name is in those files.

The hallmark of a positive sum framework is that it's more general or accurate than the author intended. (Not original I don't recall the source)

(Gygax comes off as a proto-PG. Intention was for Joker to be "chaotic evil" but the implementation might have had other ideas. Maybe Joachim's Joker I would have his approval? )

In the case of Trump, it helps Japan to "turn far-right", which is also evil at face value. Silver lining not yet found, not by this commenter at least

(Ps: Kipling & "good intentions" rhyme in my head. Need to take a page from you and sleep on all this before continuing)

Part of the hard-right turn is that center left parties since 1990 have conceded to the Reagan-Thatcher-Merkel consensus that "we can't afford the welfare state" whereas hard right parties are saying "we can afford the welfare state if we throw out migrants"

In the big picture though it really should be the world vs the New China and not the US vs the world. When Japan was beating us in cars in the 1980s we got them to build cars here. We should be getting China to build state-of-the-art factories here: the biggest advantage they have is that they build "lights out" factories that need hardly any human labor -- like a mushroom factory in Shanghai where they stack them up hundreds of feet high and only handle them with forklifts. Thankfully they are building one of those in Texas:

Sorry for going nth-order on this..

It's interesting that China-US industrial relations are still viewed with a Japanese lens. Beech (aka shimeji) mushrooms was more of a Japanese thing than Golden Oyster I think??

The downside is that Toyota-in-Detroit was probably going to do as much for rank-and-file in all countries as FINC-in-Texas..

Capital flows... (To be harped on after I review more data)

PaulHoule•10h ago
The founders of Finc Biotech went to Japan to study how they cultivated Beech mushrooms and then they went home to do it bigger and better -- they got some award from the CCP for patriotic accomplishment or something like that. If that's patriotism I want to see more of it.

The only drawback of their Beech mushrooms is that you have to cook them before you eat them, you can't slice them up and put them in a salad raw the way you can with those white buttons.

They're great with red meat. I think most Texans would like them sauteed next to a steak or in a burger

Coda (1979 Gordon Bell of House Intel):

In the U.S., in contrast, the role of the computer and robot is still debated, while our disgruntled work force grows impatient carrying out meaningless work on throw-away items. We must return to valuing the understanding of our technology, so that we stop being the slaves of Japanese enterprise.

In 1979, Deng Xiaoping might have already been thinking about rare earths. (1992 voiced, check when they started building rail to Inner Mongolia/Tibet vs Yunnan eg )

Excellent question.
d00mB0t•23h ago
A better question is "Who was running the exploitation ring?" because it sure wasn't Epstein alone.
duxup•23h ago
Why not?
duxup•23h ago
Dude was dead and releasing the files just makes enemies.

Not saying that’s ok, but the basic incentives seem apparent.

krapp•23h ago
For people who don't read the article, the answer as suggested in the article is that the FBI and the courts wouldn't allow it either for Biden or for Trump as releasing the evidence to the public would violate the privacy of witnesses and informants and might interfere in future investigations, even though no such investigations are forthcoming.

Make of that what you will.
