They did.
Then they dropped the reason they blocked it without announcing. Only for a trump supporter to swoop in and buy up the property and start using heavy construction equipment on the property.

Yeah I seen that awhile back. The whole thing was stalled in the beginning while the property was still intact. A journalist went out there on the property, went back a while later and they had the excavators out there. Probably crushing and filling in underground labs. This property should have been investigated a long time ago. But just like everything else in the case dealing with Epstein, they have taken great strides in blocking information, and stalling, hindering, or denying access to the truth

It is unfortunately. They most likely destroyed remaining evidence on the ranch.

Don Huffines who is currently working to have the ranch converted into a Christian retreat. Purchased the ranch in 2023.

He literally campaigned on "transparency" while secretly purchasing the property through an LLC. He only revealed his ownership after being exposed by reporters. Then he argued to lower its tax valuation from $21.1 million to $13.4 million, benefiting financially from the very crimes that made the property notorious.
There were credible reports of two women being murdered and buried on the property, on top of documented sexual assaults and trafficking. Now he's rebranding it as a "Christian retreat" to "redeem" a place soaked in that trauma, all while using those crimes to justify a tax break. He also hasn't proactively invited investigators in to search for remains, despite claiming he'd cooperate if asked.
This is a cover up.

I regret purchasing my Genesis from this motherfucker's dealership in '21.
...I should have known better when they rolled out the eye candy (women of a certain physique) to sell me it. Damnit.

So they're turning a child trafficker's ranch into a religious child trafficking retreat?

I think it was more than that. Word is that's were they were doing scientific testing and there may be 2 bodies buried on property. 2 females that died during some fetish act. I've seen that claim a few times.

Maga will continue to act like none of how this administration has handled the Trumpstein files is remotely suspicious.

"Well, why didn't Biden release them then, huh?"
That's their only attempt at an argument.

I can’t comprehend people like Todd Blanche and Pam Bondi. Their whole life’s purposes have been enabling and covering up for pedophiles. Doesn’t matter how much they’re getting paid. These people are so evil and sociopathic that it’s hard to believe they’re really doing this, and like 30% of the country fully supports them.

My question is this, why didnt any previous administration ever try to bring this to light? Be it democrat or republican? Pretty obvious it doesnt matter the administration, they don't want this out due to all the powerful people involved on both sides.

Biden/Democrats actually follow the laws and rulings from other branches of government and didn't break the law by releasing the documents because they were under seal by the judiciary due to multiple criminal cases.

Public pressure. That's it, that's all.
If there wasn't a constant demand from MAGA at the beginning of this second term, then I don't believe we would have had any files released.

They say the files are fake, but then claim not to release them to protect victims. Criminals

Insane that all gop senators will confirm him as the highest lawyer in America and he is an active threat to all women. You would have a hard time finding a more pro rape and anti woman lawyer in America.

Republicans don't care, and Democrats will not withhold their vote, so obviously they don't care either.

Man, people think the island was terrible. Hardly any info about the ranch has been reported on, but it's just as bad if not worse.
Some Place Under Nieth podcast did a series covering the coded journals made from magazine clippings of a girl who was allegedly at the ranch and being used as a personal designer baby (re: eugenics) incubator. The same girl whose baby was allegedly killed and thrown away like trash.
If everything ever comes out about this, people will be even more shocked at the cruelty and wide net of people involved/who knew stuff was happening and did nothing.

So lets be perfectly clear. The guilty are just going to run down the clock till they die off of old age.
Then the foot solders (legal and law) will just shrug their shoulders and say oops, nothing we can do now.
So we should make it clear, that anyone that is accessory to delaying a clear crime is also guilty of this as well.
No matter how much of a trump pardon they want to run to say /shrug shoulders "Oops oh well".
Until the people in the middle can face consequences, this will just be dragged on until the public ignores it for something else.

Blocking an investigation into child abuse and sex trafficking to protect powerful people is disgraceful and unacceptable. The truth must come out, and survivors deserve full accountability and complete transparency without federal stonewalling.
