Why didn't the Democrats release the Epstein client list? (lemmy.today)

Trump is probably on the list, so he has to protect that. The Democrats had it during their entire presidency; even if they didn't want turmoil during their time in office, they could have released it after their presidential defeat and before Trump took office.

Ive heard that many Republicans are pissed at Trump and Co about the lack of progress here since child trafficking was a big part of the QAnon bullshit. On the left, many people were willing to forgive genocide to get a paltry win at the ballot box so I can't say either side really has the high ground.

No, "the left" HAS NEVER forgiven genocide. In fact, that's a BIG part of why Harris lost: many actual leftists couldn't stomach voting for someone that was going to continue support for Israel.

Forgive may be a bit generous, at least in a lot of cases, I'd even argue most cases. We knew it was an inevitability with the only choices we had.
