I’m somewhat against the Epstein file release since most of what will come out of it is embarassing people who happened to know Epstein but didn’t actually do anything illegal. The tricky part is that Trump and his associates are expending a huge amount of political will (and commited perjury) trying to cover up something about Epstein (either involving Trump himself or Epstein’s sweetheart deal), so we’re stuck in a situation where we can’t trust Trump or anyone who works for him to decide what gets released.
