Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.
Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

I believe Epstein himself said that trump and Melania became...cozy on Epstein's plane. Was she an Epstein gal?
Showbiz Cheat Sheet: Melania Trump’s documentary film, “Melania,” is drawing attention for controversial reasons. It has been revealed that the film’s director, Brett Ratner, is referenced in the Epstein files.
Because of course, he is.

I love how they can't even pretend to be professional. They're just a handful of slobs.
Future history books will not be kind to Marco Rubio, or any of the rest of the Trump administration, for defending a traitor and covering for a pedophile.

IMO Biden's admin didn't release Epstein Files b/c Garland's stooge. It's said he didn't speed up cases vs. Trump b/c he was 'uncomfortable' indicting a president. It follows he wouldn't release Epstein Files b/c Clinton was named. Garland is as bad as Bondi by protecting former presidents. IMO.
Bill Clinton has triple dog dared Trump to release all of the Epstein files.

Yep. Best way to bury bad news is to spill it on a holiday when no one is watching, and by the time everyone's watching again, the cycle has mostly run its course. But this is the information age, and independent media and social media have a way of keeping stuff like this alive for a LONG Time.
