Sam Stein and Catherine Rampell give their takes on why Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick faces zero consequences for lying about his contact with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The files reveal family trips, business deals, and charitable donations between Lutnick and Epstein, contradicting his claims that he cut off contact with him in 2005. They break down how other governments, including the UK, Slovakia, and Norway have forced resignations or investigations over Epstein ties, and why the Trump administration is shrugging off any accountability for Lutnick’s lies.

The base doesn’t care because their propaganda stations don’t show them what’s happening. This is a base that has to be told how to think and feel which is why they can only parrot the nonsense they hear and have no logical argument when you press them on it.

Because Repubs are liars, too.

Because they are in the end game.

I’m sure Mike Johnson hasn’t heard about it.

Because if they cared, they wouldn’t have been drawn to the Republican party to begin with.

Because they are all pedophiles?

Ha! This is easy: because the Republican Party is MAGA, and MAGA is a cult!

Because Republican members of congress are evil people who are willing to allow child rape if they can make money off it. There is no bottom. The whole party is complicit. This stain will last generations.

Because they traded their principles long ago to „win“ against the democrats. Yes they are hypocrites and they do not care.

I disagree with the headline. Lutnick lies about everything not just Epstein.

Republicans like who Donald Trump tells them to like

Because his boss did it too. Rotten administration from top to bottom

Power. They only care about power.

Power. They don’t want to give it up. In their minds, if any of them admit to wrongdoing, it’s a win for the other side.

Is this a serious question?

They can’t hold Lutnick accountable and not trump. So they’ll ignore it.

Cuz no one cares. If they did this wouldn’t be happening.

Why would they care? The whole party agenda is not to care about the average American and only care about power, greed and control.

Because they are pedophiles or pedophile protectors. Every time you see a red hat you know they pedophile or pedophile protector. They know it and don’t care.

Because trump lied about Epstein, so as a Republican, you can’t care about that.
glittereagles on
Because he runs the Department of Commerce? (of all things)
ocwilly on
Because they’re hypocrites and possibly pedos too!
Question_It_All_3000 on

They all lied about epstein. They only ever cared because for *years* they were convinced that epsteins party island only had democrats. The even added in demon worship and baby eating. They screamed for lists, for names. They stormed a pizza parlor because they thought it was a staging point. They thought the Clintons were the masterminds, and had a staffer killed to protect the secret. And not understanding basic law procedure, they interpreted the evidence being ‘withheld’ in an *active ongoing investigation* as a massive coverup.
So naturally trump promised to release the files and list. And now he has…. And…. Its just Bill.
“Oh but they havent released everything! You dont know-“
I know that this admin would love nothing more than to embarrass Obama, Biden and seek the masses on a pedo *that they all so deperately want to be real*. So when Bondi released pics of Bill Clinton, Gates, Hawking, and like a handful more people… I **know** she doesnt have shit on Obama or Biden.
Shes had agents comb those files for a full ass year and if they had a *single* picture or witness statement on Obama, they would have released it first. A single thing of Hillary or Joe or *omg Hunter Biden* you can bet your ass it would already be on Fox News full repeat. Just like they had that announcement of Ruth Bader Ginsburg death ready to go nearly a year ahead of schedule.
But she aint got a damn thing. Just Bill Clinton, and nobody cares. And despite Bannon, Trump in there, maga doesnt care about that at all.
Because just like the entire rest of the maga movement, trumps campaign, trumps presidencies, all of it…
Its only ever been about attacking people they have been conditioned to hate
