□ [“Pam Bondi Responds to Rep. James Comer’s Bombshell Allegation Regarding the Epstein Files"]

“The FBI, they’re reviewing, tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn, and there are hundreds of victims.  And no one victim will ever get released.  It’s just the volume, and that’s what they’re going through right now.  The FBI is diligently going through that.”

The FBI has had all these years to do something and they haven't.  She's not even remotely offended that it's taking so long.  I could personally go through a couple thousand pix a day, cut-and-paste the perpetrator's face, eliminate the rest, put that out to the public.  Bondi is aware that there are perpetrators, isn't she?  Doesn't seem to have anything to say about them.

And how did the FBI get these files?  Don't recall hearing that the New York court handed anything over.  No sign the FBI is looking into who hid them for all these years.  Frankly they all seem very unconcerned about this, given how long it's gone on and how many chances law enforcement had to do something about it at any point.  This is the same FBI that still hasn't found any reason for a Bernie Sanders supporter to shot at Congressional Republicans in 2017.

As this goes on, the P. Diddy trial has started and of course it's being hidden from the public.  As with Epstein, it's basically designed to make sure the public doesn't believe any of it.  They could just come out afterwards and say Diddy's been found guilty, jail for life, etc. and then send him to live in a mansion and enjoy himself.  But they'd need to keep all the information private because victims!!!

Names are coming out from the Diddy case, presumably.  Most of the ones I recognize are black, usually some sort of musician.  Mike Myers is the only major name people keep citing.  Kamala Harris has been mentioned but not that often.  I really don't see why they're keeping this private, other than the obvious excuse to protect all the leftist elites.

□ [“Israel Destroys Yemen’s Main Airport; Cuts Houthi Weapons Supply Route"]

Ok, but what does this actually do?  Can't Iran send in helicopters capable of landing in the desert to continue supplying their allies?  They've also hit a port, so they may be going after specific logistics sites or people involved, but I still don't see an overall goal.  Taking out some of the enemy, fine, but there's a lot more out there.

Israel does seem to be aimed at Iran.  In one sense, fine, let them face each other.  In another sense, it seems like a very tough midget going up against a very large fat guy.  The midget has the ability but there's still a limit to how much damage he can do to all that blubber.

It also sounds like Iran is pushing the Houthis to make a truce with the US.  It's possible they don't want to face both of us at the same time and Israel is the bigger target.  Yeah yeah, we're the "big satan" but we're infidel.  Israel isn't.  They will always be more important to the Muslim enemy.

Don't really know about the Houthis but my first guess is that this isn't a big deal to them.  They'll obey Iran and sure, they hate Israel, but they're not all that devoted to shooting missiles into the Red Sea.  A couple hits from Trump and they've probably had enough of that.  Now we'll see what Iran is ready for.

□ [“ICE Raids 8 DC Restaurants, Including One Owned by Husband of Trump-Hating CBS Anchor"]

This comes off as the sort of thing that sounds cool but really isn't a good idea.  They didn't arrest or detain anybody in any of these eateries, so what was the point of the raids?  And like it or not, there is a point where we have to be wary of assuming someone is guilty just because they were arrested.  The left has many tactics it would be great to see used against them, that's not one of them.

I also think this is partly about determining connections with illegals and traffickers.  That's why the fact that one restaurant was owned by a media figure's pet is relevant.  She couldn't be bothered to take her husband's name, that's how you know it's a real marriage.  But if they don't actually have illegals going through this restaurant, there's no reason for the raid.

I support the basic idea of things like this but face it, stuff like this does come off as bullying.  The public can't be informed on everything so it's entirely possible that this is sending a message to certain people, pushing them in a way that will trap them permanently.  But there's no sense of that without explicit explanations and leadership.  It's just another example of how there's been no major arrests, no definite damaged against the enemy, which makes the Trump administration look like they're just putting on a show for a few years.
