news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

If you read the full bill. It says that Pam Bondi must also declassify information in the documents and that any information that can't be declassified must be submitted to the congress for approval.

Also. The bill only tells the US DOJ to publish the Epstein documents. The US DOJ is not the only source of Epstein documents. The recent emails published were released by the US Congress, not the US DOJ.
Also. The Epstein Estate has also published some documents. They might be publish documents because they think Trump killed Jeffrey Epstein.
That to me still seems like a limited hangout. Last week Trump completely reversed course and asked for an investigation. I'm all but certain anything that incriminates him or others in his orbit will fall under that investigation, which is then buried.
The inclusion of these specific exemptions begs the question of WTF are they doing in the Epstien files goven they can directly prove and incriminate the bastards who did this - if deaths why isn't anyone charged with murder and why are they granting Trump a conflict of interest VETO on any of them via "Executive Order"? Where are the checks and balances congress?
