Forest and trees re Epstein documents, as of now.
Trees: Controversies about particular documents.
Forest: Virtually none of the key documents, ones that we know exist, the ones the victims and knowledgeable observers have been demanding to see, have been released.
And so the coverup continues.

The Republican Party has so little respect for itself it willfully proved every principle they ever claimed to possess never existed to devote themselves to a prolific pedophile who used to donate to Democrats and couldn’t pass a third grade history test.

The Epstein files on the DOJ website allow you to highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it into another document, which reveals what was hidden. You can also press Ctrl+F and search for “Trump ” (with a space) to see his name appear more than 600 times. #OpDeathEaters
