    This does feel like the first mention of deep state that feels credible. ie a real hidden hand

    I'm wondering/guessing about a couple of things:

    - Epstein list is being held by Trump and associates so that they have blackmail against their fellow republicans

    - Podcasts are Russia sponsored, Trump is having a fallout with Russia and so podcast owners are now against Trump

    The question now remains how much of Trump and his entourage ( possibly not, but I doubt it) is infiltrated with Putin trustees and Trump will "suddenly fall of a window".

      You're way overthinking it. Trump and his buddies are on the list. That's the entire reason they're trying to squash it.

        So the Biden admin had this the whole time but didn't release it. They tried everything under the sun to hurt Trump but they wouldn't release this... that makes zero sense.

          Biden didn't make it a centerpiece of his campaign to reveal the list. The Biden administration was apparently only interested in prosecution, not stirring up political dirt. Trump vowed to publish the list and is now complaining there's no list at all, after saying they had the list.

          Unless, as is widely and reasonably suspected, Democratic politicians and donors are also implicated.

          Another, largely similar, possibility is that this really is an intelligence-led blackmail operation and now lots of people in positions of power (including the Trumps and Bidens) are in the control of whichever spies have the tapes and photographs.

      How is it always Russia with you people? You honestly believe Tim Dillon and Joe Rogan are working for the Russians? Despite having followings of tens of millions, and having massive Spotify deals, they have to be Russian puppets to make money? Is Spotify controlled by the Russians too?
