Trouble In Paradise? MTG Voted Off The 'Island'?

“I never thought that fighting to release the Epstein files, defending women who were victims of rape, and fighting to expose the web of rich powerful elites would have caused this, but here we are,” the Georgia Republican wrote in the post. “And it truly speaks for itself. There needs to be a new way forward.”

Looks like Booboo Boebert from Colorado and Nancy Mace are hanging tough right alongside MTG and Massie.

This is a interesting show we are witnessing at the moment. The once faithfully blind followers now for whatever reasons. To be standing up for what they disagree with him on. Where in the past were ever so happy to go along with and cheerlead.

Is it because of integrity or it is a bridge to far? Or fear of loosing their elections?

Whatever the reason good for them to discover they still have a backbone and to risen up from their knees..


I do enjoy it in that they seem surprised on Trump's attacks on them.....

Since the second advent of Trump, ICE and Tariffs have held center stage while these three women have not had the limelight. Standing up for the release of Epstein files gives them an opportunity to grab the headlines.

Also they could be betting that if these files are not released, the Republican Party will lose in the next midterms and impact their own reelections.

Indeed, MAGA sensibilities do not preclude shrewdness and an ability to read the political climate.

Trump is in a no win position anyway I look at it.

Files get released or not.


The only ones who still think he not hiding something are put is as simple of terms they will not understand.

They are totally brainwashed fools.

The files won't get released during this corrupt administration. They will open many more "ongoing investigations", which prevent them from being released. They are pure evil, will do anything to protect their Dear Leader because they know they will all be behind bars if the truth comes out.

Oh, he's definitely hiding something all right, the question is what. There's now incontrovertible evidence that his name's all over the files, so no use trying to hide that. That he was aware of Epstein's tomfoolery with underage girls is less clear, although evidence seems to be mounting daily. Trump may, however, feel that this can still be squelched or obscured. Finally, nothing has emerged that suggests that he actually
participated in the debauchery -- at least nothing I've seen. I am personally 50-50 that he did, but yes, no evidence. Yet.

If he knew what was happening and did nothing ....... still very wrong and very bad.
