Kind of a checks & balances conundrum:

The Dept of Justice doesn’t think the law applies to it because who’s gonna prosecute them for breaking the law?

I will fly to DC and start chiseling off his name myself if no one else does, then dare anyone to prosecute me
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

DOJ has posted a couple more batches of Epstein files and they look like grand jury testimony.

Right off the bat, I want to know why they redacted the names of Assistant U.S. Attorneys. That seems entirely unnecessary.

By 1:30pm today, Democracy Docket had already published that the DOJ files release was incomplete and violated federal law.

Why did it take so many legacy media outlets until this evening to come to the same conclusion?
🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice will fail to publicly release all of its files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein by a Friday deadline, violating a new federal law explicitly mandating that the trove of documents be turned over for public scrutiny. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

As a former federal criminal investigator I’ll say this: tell me that in a week Epstein and Trump were playing phone tag and Trump wanted a big favor from Epstein, Epstein got a call saying someone wanted to get a sex slave to him—and knowing Epstein got slaves from Mar-a-Lago—I’d have QUESTIONS.

BREAKING: November 8, 2004 phone message to Epstein saying a redacted caller "had a female for him" arrived the same week Donald Trump is known to have called Epstein multiple times while trying to convince his friend to back off bidding for a FL property.
Why Donald Trump left phone messages for Jeffrey Epstein. Here's what we know
Police seized phone message pads from Epstein's Palm Beach mansion in 2005. Two messages were from Donald Trump.

Breaking:

Rep. Ro Khanna says the Trump DOJ's production "does not comply with" the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Khanna says he and Rep. Thomas Massie "are exploring all options" — including impeachment of DOJ officials, inherent contempt, or referring individuals for obstruction of justice.

DOJ, per Deputy AG Todd Blanche, will delay Trump-Epstein files despite federal law requiring disclosure

The law leaves no discretion & DOJ’s position may be illegal

Survivors demanded transparency, not another cover-up

I feel bad for the guys at Justice. I have the same problem with my old not very good printer—sometimes it just decides to print pages black!

I recommend unplugging it and plugging it back in.
