Brilliant Move! Dems use "Rule of Five" to force Bondi to release Epstein files!
Bondi has been refusing to indict on Epstein crimes since 2011.
From The Guardian this morning:
On Capitol Hill today, Senate Democrats – led by minority leader Chuck Schumer – will hold a press conference at 12pm ET to discuss their plans to push the justice department to release the full and un-redacted Epstein files.
Democrats are using a rare and little-known law, known colloquially as the “rule of five”, which requires government agencies to provide relevant information if at least five members of the committee request it. In this case, all Democrats on the homeland security and governmental affairs committee signed a letter to attorney general Pam Bondi yesterday.
This is a brilliant move. They MUST get around the extortion Ghislaine Maxwell is trying to pull off, in which she is trying to trade immunity for ALLEGED truthful information about who’s in the more than 100,000 Epstein files not released.
(1) Ghislaine Maxwell doesn’t deserve immunity—she deserves a life sentence without the possibility of parole—and should not be called in front of any committee or house of Congress because
(2) She’s going to shape the untruth to suit the desires of the highest bidder.
(3) She’s going to keep this up until she has everything she wants.
Only the release of all the files — and the testimony of ALL victims in court is going to be justice.

The best possible outcome.
What is becoming possible here is that there are not one, but two ways, through the Donald Trump Slime Zone. The first is that he’ll be taken out by Article 25 in the very, very near future, perhaps while J.D. Vance is in the Cotswolds to give Vance cover. The problem with this “solution” is that it rids us only of Trump.
The possibility presented by the Rule of Five Gambit is that the release and perusal of ALL the Epstein files will nail everybody and prove that Donald Trump is a pedophile who is unfit for office. He’s unfit by all measures anyhow, but this will be the nail in the coffin.
AND … evidence of Trump’s complicity in Epstein’s worldwide, billion-dollar girl-trafficking sleaze, including the bank records gathered by Senator Ron Wyden (D-Oregon) over the last three years, will prove to be incontrovertible evidence of Trump’s guilt. The possibility then becomes …
Trump is removed by impeachment.
This is the far, far more desirable outcome because …
It leaves Trump in a position to be continue to be sued for Mar-a-Lago classified docs, Georgia election tampering, culpability for the January 6th deaths, and multiple other crimes.
Note: There was a huge error in this post originally: I trusted the wrong source and was hopeful that an impeachment of Trump would take Vance and the whole craven cabinet with him. I apologize. It was a dreadful error.
Now to another important matter. PolitiSage has begun a Change.org petition to have Trump and Kristi Noem indicted by the International Criminal Court. Please sign this petition if you believe this is the right thing to do. Also, please share the petition with as many friends as you feel comfortable contacting and please post it on your Substack page if you can.

Wade and the institution of abortion penalties and restriction of travel for the purpose of abortion and the restriction of abortion medications as an instance of FORCED PREGNANCY under the Rome Statutes of the International Criminal Court.
A profound thanks for your support. We are deeply grateful.
Keep in mind that ghislaine maxwell is a master manipulator. She manipulated girls and wealthy men ruthlessly for decades. She is currently manipulating the situation very masterfully for herself first and then trump. Never forget her background. There should never be any kind of negotiations with a convicted felon who has a history of masterful manipulation, especially of men.
So happy Schumer is finally learning the rule book. This is what McConnell always understood—parliamentary tactics can be used to throw sticks in the majority’s bicycle spokes.
