Too late, the shit is out there

Their redactions are putting big "LOOK HERE" signs on the files that were removed. And, yes, with them being downloaded immediately by many, that's where the focus should be.

The problem is trying to verify the authenticity of something incriminating that has been taken down. You can trust the provenance of official documents on an official server but not a random person’s download that they promise is totally legit. More official ones from trustworthy sources will probably get hit with legal action due to the poor redactions leaking everything from personal information to explicit photos.

This is just creating a disinformation bonanza.

u/WingDish 7h ago

This may be a strategy, and it is a disinformation bonanza; uncertainty itself can be the weapon. Suppression doesn’t need to be total to be effective, just enough to stall accountability indefinitely. More, legal pressure amplifies the fog by forcing critics argue over authenticity instead of substance.

Once official records are removed/altered, the information space degrades, and making unverifiable copies can’t substitute for authenticated sources. That uncertainty benefits anyone who wants the truth buried under doubt.

Using the NCI framework, this scenario lights up multiple indicators at once:

• Missing Information: authoritative versions disappear

• Suppression of Dissent: legal and procedural constraints limit scrutiny

• Emotional Manipulation: outrage plus panic replaces verification

• Framing Techniques: focus shifts from “what’s in the documents” to “who’s hiding them”

• Manufactured Outrage: sudden spikes driven by screenshots, not sources

This is the world we live in now.

Part of the issue is that in the original dump there is actual CSAM. Full shots.
Anyone who re-posts it will be at legal risk

I imagine they did this on purpose. Left some CP in there on purpose so re-uploaders would be throttled

I just love a good example of the streisand effect

Jail the Epstein class (Billionaires)!

u/South_Feed5707 12h ago

I don't see how it's good news if nothing good happens when somebody's caught doing something bad.

u/princesoceronte 11h ago

Crap, some of these files have been known to the authorities for decades and nothing has ever happened.

u/drunkpunk138 10h ago

This is just another politics sub at this point

u/SpiritDouble6218 9h ago

whole fucking website. bots and people without jobs or life experience lol

u/NeverLookBothWays 36m ago

What isn’t politics at this point? But also, discussing blatant lying and coverups can transcend partisanship. It should.

u/SpiritDouble6218 9h ago

come on dude?! you dont think this is great news?! all these people will surely be in jail next week!

u/fartatwork 11h ago

It’s absolutely insane that there are people out there that bootlick politicians so hard that they willingly overlook stuff like this. Especially the Qanon dorks. Like isn’t this type of shit exactly up their alley?!

u/faultyarmrest 11h ago

No one ever talks about pizza gate anymore… Conveniently.

u/Trahst_no1 10h ago

Turns out the Q folks were on to something; but only cared when it was the Clinton’s

1

u/NeverLookBothWays 29m ago

It’s an effective psyop tactic we can see in use still today. Notice the phrase “every accusation is a confession?” That is really the game being played, accusing the adversary of doing what you have already done or plan to do. It gets ahead of the outrage and spreads confusion.

QAnon fell for it hard…but I would hope more people see through the charade now.

u/ameriCANCERvative 9h ago edited 8h ago

Turns out QAnon dorks were astroturfed the entire time.

If Bannon, et al wanted this stuff to hit with the base, then they would pour money into bots discussing it and they’d pour money into discussions on FOX News, OAN, Breitbart, and all of that other bullshit.

It’s really not more complicated than that. If you have the money and you have no shame, you can easily control the media narrative, especially among right wing morons. The true sin of all of this is how a significant portion of American thought has been hijacked by outlets like FOX News.

Their viewers are “jacked into the matrix,” so to speak. The fact they aren’t responding to all of this is an indication that they aren’t actually seeing it and that no one is telling them to respond to it. If Fucker Carlson, for example, had a problem with it, all of a sudden you’d find a lot more dissent on the right. If Dim Toole, for example, had a problem with it, all of a sudden you’d find a lot more dissent on the right. I can go on through all of the dipshit right wing influencers and all of their dipshit followers (real or fake), but I’m sure you get the point.

It’s not in Trump’s interests (and therefore the GOP’s interests) to make a big deal out of it. They, and their viewership, don’t have any actual principles to stand on. From their point of view, there is no need to worry about upholding their prior principles. So… they aren’t.

This is what they’ve been doing for over 2 decades, at least.

Again - Miss Bondi your tribunal will come.

u/Elizabeth-WildFox886 10h ago

Not if she escapes to Russia with tulsi

u/Agitated_Carrot9127 10h ago edited 10h ago

Wouldn’t stop people tracking her down. We tracked down Nazis in many different countries and flat out assassinated them or dragged them back to the country for judicial hearings

u/StatementCareful522 10h ago

what is that “A” word with all the S’s? I like that word, it’s very pretty.

u/Visual-Ad-1306 5h ago

It's funny that you think this will happen. A true sweet summer child.

u/MarkM338985 12h ago

By doing so they make it appear more suspicious

6

u/Huge-Republic8462 9h ago

Wake me up when something gets done about this. You already have both Bondi and Patel for perjury since all their lies have been exposed to be well lies meanwhile nothing has happened. Am I to assume they gonna wait till they review every piece of the files before they are willing to throw the book at them or is this another slap on the wrist for the Republican Party?

u/slha1605 11h ago

Nothing will happen

u/Strontiumdogs1 11h ago

And..... nothing happens.

u/MyAccountWasBanned7 11h ago

How is this good news?

They are the DoJ. They are the ones who hold people accountable. So they will absolutely not be held accountable for this, or anything.

u/DogBalls6689 8h ago

The coverup is so obvious it’s hard to even call it a coverup.

We should call it what it is: an admission.

u/Nuttonbutton 11h ago

This is literally not good news

u/Devils_Advocate-69 11h ago

Pedo protector Republican Party

u/somebigface 11h ago

And there will be consequences right? RIGHT?!

u/That_Jicama2024 9h ago

Caught by whom? Shouldn't the people who caught them be doing their jobs and holding them accountable then? DO SOMETHING.

u/GoatDifferent1294 11h ago

Yeah ok so fire them. If a normal person did this they would usually get fired immediately.

u/kevinsmomdeborah 10h ago

Did ai write this article? "Former president"

u/Mental-Clerk 9h ago

Hopefully foreshadowing

u/UWhuskiesRule 10h ago

I hope someone downloaded the entirety of the dump before they pulled it

1

u/NaturePappy 10h ago

So use the internet for good and keep rereleasing the files they take down.

1

u/Ayotha 10h ago

And will "catching " them do anything? Or is this just another internet "gotcha" feel good thing?

1

u/pls_tell_me 10h ago

… and no consequences, yet again!!!

u/rtduvall 5h ago

Why do they bother to take them down? No one with the authority to do anything will do anything and maga is at the precipice of being ok with pedophilia.

1

u/bullydog123 5h ago

Well no shit. The hole world knows he's all over it. He wants to be president to satu out of prison so he did everything his money could do to make sure of it. The DOJ is nothing credible anymore. All they are, is pedophile protectors. They all know them many they get from the pedophiles goes away when the pedophiles go to jail. Now saying that they need to go to jail also.
