“Members of Congress will be able to review unredacted versions of the more than 3 million pages of Epstein files released by the Justice Department starting Feb. 9”
And they did that a couple weeks ago. But they got skunked by DOJ, who monitored which Congress Critter logged in ... AND ... they monitored what each one queried.
Turns out, that the first thing that most searched for after logging on was the Critter’s OWN NAME. Must be some major guilty consciences out there. They had less interest in human trafficking, etc., than they did on whether they themselves were compromised.
Searching for their own name just shows the lack of trust they have in the DOJ probably as much as anything. Marjorie Taylor Greene was seemingly rightfully upset that her name was in there, as she said later, because she wasn’t even a member of Congress yet, or nationally known by anyone, by the time Epstein was dead. The DOJ excuse seemed to be that the files weren’t actually only Epstein’s files, but other recent things involving his critics. Many other prominent names were completely left out like Tom Hanks leading to further questions. Bottom line the whole thing seems to have been horribly managed
The big question now is if any of the Congress people who saw the names are now going to use their right to free speech to release them. So far, they haven’t been willing to, with Alan Dershowitz, promising to sue anyone who does, and Nancy Mason even posting on X that she fears for her life.
