The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

As an illustrative example, everyone knows what a hard drive is, they have one (or an SSD I suppose) on their laptop or desktop.

Over the years, we all accumulate tons of files, emails, and other crap and it adds up to hundreds of megabytes or gigabytes, sometimes more.

So what if one of more of the pieces of "evidence" in the pile of Epstein garbage is the hard drive off his computer, or multiple hard drives? That would typically be confiscated from the defendant in a case of this nature for forensic investigation.

The FBI basically said there was nothing there to prosecute anyone else. In other words, it's just a bunch of worthless nonsensical garbage the same as everyone else has on their hard drives, for the most part.

So the Dems wanted "everything", now they got "everything."

But they're whining because now it's "millions of pages."

I'm sure I have millions of pages of something or other on my collective hard drives, email accounts, and so forth.

Is any of it worth looking at? I mean other than to myself?

Why would you think Epstein would have some secret treasure trove of Trump "gotcha" material?

It's a fantasy and Raskin just woke up and his sheets are all sticky.
