Epstein Transparency Act Passes Nearly Unanimously, Alphabet CEO Warns of 'Irrational Exuberance'

This whole vote was too “easy”. All representatives (except 1) and all senators voted to release everything? No way. I’m betting there is some shared understanding that nothing is really going to come of this release. I predict we’ll get a big nothing-burger, a token release of a small handful of files, and somebody of prominence saying, “See - told you there was nothing to see!” Meanwhile, the real dirt will lay carefully tucked away out of sight and under lock and key. Either that, or it will be so heavily redacted due to “matters of national security” or “we need to protect the victims” that we won’t be able to see anything useful.

I give it a 2% chance we actually see some major bombshell release of dirt.
