All of these links went to promotion of this story earlier today. All these links are dead now — that's how thoroughly they've scrubbed this.

🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.

Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.

See for yourself.

This is potentially a massive cover-up. Where is the corporate-owned legacy media that claims it exists to expose government corruption? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release.

AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

Ordered by Trump to scrub all photos and references of him in the Epstein files, Pam Bondi and the DOJ are busted for clandestinely deleting 16 files from Friday's trove of files, including a photograph of the pedophile president in Epstein's desk drawer. tinyurl.com/yc2bhrfz

So the "most transparent president in history" won't let Jack Smith's testimony become public. He's got them holding back tens of thousands of Epstein documents, haven't seen his taxes, his school records, and no one knows why the East Wing was destroyed before he even had ballroom plans. Yeah.

Washington Post's new headline is still wrong.

1. The release was not "huge."
2. DOJ missed the deadline to release all the files.
3, No mention of extensive redactions.

Today, we're learning why DOJ didn't release the redacted files last March. Because the multitude of redactions exposes how much they're covering up.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.

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.

In this week’s newsletter, I explain how Trump’s $1,776 payments is actually one of the most dangerous things he’s ever done. Armies loyal to a paycheck and not the government is how you get authoritarian overthrows of republics.
Trump’s ‘Warrior Dividend’ Might Be His Scariest Idea Yet
In this week’s Elie v. US, The Nation’s justice correspondent explores the authoritarian threat beneath Trump’s bonuses for military families. Plus, a case for getting rid of the Second Amendment.

Carri Twigg, former Kennedy Center board member whom Joe Biden appointed, wrote an op-ed in February for Rolling Stone explaining why Trump’s takeover of the Kennedy Center was disturbing.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Don’t be fooled. This isn’t a family of crime fighters.
It’s a family with a slave-catcher mindset, and they made a money move.

Like Rep Gregory Meeks I want to know why Republicans are silent about Trump pardoning a narco who was convicted of smuggling 400 tons of drugs into the country.
