I'm not the one who has Biden in some cover up. That's the Trumpies. The line is Biden covered up for Dems. But, if so, why is Trump covering up for the Dems Biden covered up for? Or was there no cover up by Biden, after all?

Nope, the tornado of lies is all coming out of the WH and for some reason Trump is desperate to keep those files in the darkness.

Why?

"Isn't a little ironic that with Trump as President we're getting closer to the truth than we were when Biden was president?"

That's what braying at the moon and getting your mob hyped up will do.
Gosh, now the rubes actually want to see what's in those files the yammers were yammering about.
Whodathunkit?
So, either there's nothing there or Trump's covering up for the Democrats Biden was covering up for?
Is that how it runs these days?
Nah.
There's some nasty stuff in there.

Alex Acosta is scheduled to testify behind closed doors this Friday.

It's obvious there's a coverup going on.
And the identities of some of the cast of characters is, likewise, obvious.
They should just get it over with, lance the boil, cut to the chase and tell us what it is.
That they continue this absurd coverup tells you something.
What it tells us ... no, what it bellows out is this:
The coverup is designed to bury some truly nasty information.
Stuff so bad it might affect the puke reflex even on a lot of MAGAts.
And that's bad.

Problem is, beyond being a mess Keystone Kash is a terrible judge of what is and what is not "credible." That's because he lies. A lot.

Sure seemed like those spittle-spewing MAGAts wanted to kill Mike Pence.
They most beat down some cops.
Killed then, too.Love folk.
Absolute scum of the earth.

Didn't realize that, although I probably should have, and speaking as someone with longterm Anglo and Irish connections it certainly makes sense. Gracias!

He certainly seemed to.

And if anyone doubted, Keystone Kash also managed to present himself as one of the bigger horse's patoots in a broken barnyard of an administration -------- with them.

Thanks for that link!

Unfortunately, Republicans in Congress are still wondering whether to check under the seats for their missing ------.
And as for the Coup Caucus on SCOTUS?

'It exists!' he cried.
'No,' said O'Brien.
He stepped across the room. There was a memory hole in the opposite wall. O'Brien lifted the grating. Unseen, the frail slip of paper was whirling away on the current of warm air; it was vanishing in a flash of flame. O'Brien turned away from the wall.
'Ashes,' he said. 'Not even identifiable ashes. Dust. It does not exist. It never existed.'
'But it did exist! It does exist! It exists in memory. I remember it. You remember it.'
'I do not remember it,' said O'Brien.

Redford moved well beyond those early leading man roles and actually got involved in doing things, trying to accomplish something, and not just in film. Back in the early 1980s it was my great pleasure to share dinner (we ate from separate plates) with Tony Hillerman, author of the Joe Leaphorn novels. I asked him why he moved from Leaphorn to the then-new Jim Chee character. Well, Tony answered, the name Chee was more Navajo than Leaphorn. Then, too, he laughed, Robert Redford had bought the rights to Leaphorn. It took ages for Redford to really get that one going, but after a false start some years back it has clicked. And as for his films, so many really good ones. I never tire watching him as the intel operative tying up some loose ends coming up to retirement in Spy Game. And from their eras, hard to beat him in Butch Cassidy ... and The Sting as well as All the President's Men. See, so many. May it be finished in Beauty.

Chances are, if you've looked into the Civil War period likely seen "The Scourged Back" or some version of it as the image is quite famous. As the report above points out:

Harper's Weekly originally published the photo on Independence Day in 1863, in the immediate aftermath of the Battle of Gettysburg. At the time, it chronicled Gordon's escape from a Louisiana plantation before he took up arms for the Union during the Civil War, the Portrait Gallery website explains.
One journalist after seeing the image said, "This Card Photograph should be multiplied by 100,000 and scattered over the States. It tells the story in a way that even Mrs. [Harriet Beecher] Stowe cannot approach, because it tells the story to the eye," according to the Smithsonian museum.

America's convicted felon president will be at the royal pile in Windsor and the prime minister's pad at Chequers. But not London. There will, however, be salutes, uniforms, and band music in those isolated venues to keep the toddler happy. There had sometime back been a bit of talk about a speech to Parliament, but that, wisely and mercifully, fell by the wayside.

Whatever sort of do the Brit's put on and whatever idiocies Trump puts on display will probably not be enough to seriously mute the discussion to which that yuuge photo of him with his former BFF Epstein calls attention. Namely, the Epstein Coverup.

Sniveling on the way out is not a good look.
But there it is.
All propeller beanie, no cattle.

If the pope won't do it (and he won't), surely Trump could be persuaded to issue a Sharpied executive order declaring Charlie Kirk Patron Saint of Acceptable Losses to Firearms Freaks. From what he said in life, it sure sounds like something Charlie might get a kick out of in the great mystery.

How does one "defame" a thirty-four times convicted felon?

"And Ms. Comey does know a lot about the nefarious Ghislaine Maxwell"

Indeed.
Probably has a lot to do with firing her.
Comey knows the Epstein files.
That and her dad's identity did it for her.
And, so, just as fish gotta swim and lying liars gonna lie, the ...
