A top House Democrat on Monday accused the justice department of making “mysterious redactions” to documents related to Jeffrey Epstein that obscured the names of abusers, while also allowing the identities of the disgraced financier’s victims to become public.
Jamie Raskin, House judiciary ranking member, criticized the department after reviewing the unredacted Epstein files at a government facility in Washington DC on the first day they were made available to lawmakers.
Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act passed by Congress in November, the justice department has publicly released millions of files related to Epstein, who socialized with prominent global elites including Donald Trump and died in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. The measure allows for the files to be redacted in limited circumstances, such as to protect the name of Epstein’s victims, but some of the documents made public have nonetheless included identifying details.
Gosh, you don’t say…
Trump is in there 38,000 times, and that’s after the cover up? Christ!
The question is why he isn’t redacted in that push? He is a dead man, so the logic behind this forced association may be that dropping him would also erase everyone else’s wrongdoings. The cult of personality is useful both before and after the end of it, to bath in it’s blood and come out clean. Who\what else did this person see there we don’t know yet?
It’s gotta be something that would blow apart their voter base if revealed. Something like all those big Evangelical leaders needed their own private jets because they were on their way to Epstein Island.
Probably raping and killing 9 year olds, and “burying them on the back 9 with the other cunts” like his worker was alleged to have said to some of the girls about his golf course.
It’s optimistic of you.
I believe than, no, it wouldn’t crash the whole ship, it’s just they would feel a bit inconvinient if this would surface after the Trump is gone.
Some Fortune 500 guys and top functionairees don’t want themselves associated with the Eipstein mythos once Trump and his closer cronies take the blow.
Everybody would question if Trump was not mentioned at all, so they left a few places unredacted to avoid looking biased.
“I went over there, and I was able to determine, at least I believe, that there were tons of completely unnecessary redactions, in addition to the failure to redact the names of victims, and so that was troubling to us,” Raskin told reporters.
He accused the justice department of being “in a cover-up mode” and breaking the law.
Leak them already
A cover up to protect the wealthy in 'Murica?
Well, I never…
No shit…what the fuck?
An official confirming it on record is not insignificant
Except it’s a Democrat doing it, so nothing will happen
