Trump’s big play about “ordering” the release of the Amelia Earhart files feels less like leadership and more like trolling the American people. Nobody in 2025 is lying awake at night desperate to know what happened to Earhart, yet here he is, selling it like a major breakthrough while the real files that matter—the Epstein files—stay buried under lock and key. It’s the same old distraction tactic: dangle something shiny and harmless in one hand while hiding the real truth in the other. And the worst part is, he acts like we’re supposed to thank him for it, as if this stunt actually addresses the corruption, cover-ups, and rot everyone can see clear as day.

It’s the political equivalent of that line from Pawn Stars, when Rick looks someone in the eye and says, “Best I can do is…” Except here, it’s Trump saying: “Best I can do is Earhart files, fully unredacted.” Meanwhile, the Epstein files—the ones with names, connections, and accountability—are treated like they’re untouchable. It’s not that he can’t release them; it’s that he won’t. And that tells you everything you need to know about where the priorities really are.
