Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Is there at least a list of names?
Surely not a public one, but it’s probably squirreled away in a safety deposit box somewhere - this is her exerting leverage on orangeboi in an attempt to get a pardon.
I'm more inclined to believe Pam Bondi fed her the list and told her to file it with the court in x-number of months. You know, as part of the quid-pro-quo deal for her transfer to minimum-security...
No
How much do you want to bet that every single person named is a political enemy of Trump, and she kept her mouth shut about everybody else?
My thoughts exactly. There are probably hundreds of people who could be named and these are selected for one reason or another.
I'd bet theres a couple 'allies' that he just wants more leverage over mixed in.
He has the leverage. He was collecting it when he ran his underage sex trafficking ring.
Because Trump ran Trump Model Management years before Epstein came in with MC2.
All because Trump's other best friend and sex trafficker John Casablancas was forced out of Elite Models due to a BBC investigation that uncovered rampant sex crimes, but because the BBC played fast and loose, the entire thing was mostly ignored.
Casablancas eventually had to flee the country, and went to a Trump property in Brazil where he lived out the last years of his life tricking young women into signing on to Trump Model Management so that they could be sex trafficked on fake visas.
A rule of journalism: When a news headline includes words like blasts, blisters, bombshell, burns, claps back, drags, epic self-own, explodes, freaks out, goes nuclear, goes viral, humbles, humiliates, melts down, mind-blowing, rages, rips, roasts, shocking, skewers, slams, staggers, stuns, trends online, or trolls, find a better source. The only exception is when the word is used literally, i.e., a bombshell *actually explodes.
Now I'll add 'grenade' to the list.
Two days later the rest of the press begins to pick it up:

Feel free to find a better source and post it
Cordially, if it's news, it'll make its way to a serious news site.
With respect, if all you can add is criticism maybe you have nothing to add.
