'criminality' and 'evidence of criminality' or lack thereof in discussing the files. This is also one of the early DOJ excuses made for not indicting people and encouraging the nation to 'move on'...not enough evidence of criminality. Lack of evidence (as defined by TPTB) has become a shield justifying redactions, excusing problematic associations, and allowing talk show hosts to scream over-reach and 'me-too redux' over the internets and airwaves.
Aside from interpretation problems with the terms used such as 'evidence' and 'criminality', THERE ARE MANY REASONS OTHER THAN POTENTIAL INDICTMENTS to have full release of the files, including:
...are these people in positions of power exposed to blackmail because of what's known about their activities? Hugely important to know if TSF or Luttnik or others are compromised, no? Who owns whom? There's more than enough known about Epstein, Trump, and Putin to worry about these things. TSF couldn't get security clearance to work anywhere, with his background/vulnerabilities/exposure. Even if TSF weren't caught on tape...who has been?
...the victims/survivors are owed full exploration and discussion...indictments or not
...we need to know who in govt is lying
...we need to know how the judicial system failed, from the very beginning
...we need to know how the ultra elite operate to escape responsibility, accountability, justice.
...we need to know why and how 90% of GOP officials have been captured enough that they are not only complicit in a cover up but willing to go along with massive changes to our country, democracy, and world order. Big outstanding question.
...finally: it's because the files release law that was passed is being ignored and it's not clear what is being done about it
