Someone is abusing people en masse to... distract from their prior abuse of people? No, he's just continuing to be the same horrible person, supported by other horrible people, as he was before.

The fanfare around the Epstein Files at the exclusion of all else ("This is a distraction from the Epstein files!") is the zombified corpse of the Mueller Investigation fanfare walking again. They want us to believe that, instead of the masses making history, somehow suits in Washington (many of the same ones who help keep the lights on for ICE) releasing more details of Trump's past abuses will put an end to his regime's abuses. They want us to believe this even when during the Biden years they dragged their feet on prosecuting him and didn't throw him in a cell, plus giving many of his Jan. 6th rioters exceptionally nice treatment in federal prison if they did get locked up.

I think it's convenient enough for them when something distracts from something else, but I doubt that it's an explicit plan by the administration. It's a byproduct of so many bad things happening in quick succession
