Blanche says DOJ won’t release full Epstein files to Congress by Friday deadline

And they're stalling again. Of course it's no surprise. Johnson shut the house down for Holiday break yesterday. From what I understand, they won't come back until the 6th of January. The "law and order" party breaking a law they all voted for.




Blanche says DOJ won’t release full Epstein files to Congress by Friday deadline

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Department of Justice (DOJ) would not be releasing the full Epstein files to Congress on Friday as required under new legislation, instead sending over a partial batch.

Blanche told Fox News the Justice Department would release “several hundred thousand” documents on Friday, “and then over the next couple weeks, I expect several hundred thousand more.”

Blanche attributed the delay to the need to redact any names or identifying information about witnesses, but failing to turn over the full unclassified files could run afoul of the law, which gave the department 30 days to share the files with Congress.

“So today is the 30 days when I expect that we’re going to release several hundred thousand documents today. And those documents will come in in all different forms, photographs and other materials associated with, with all of the investigations into, into Mr. Epstein,” Blanche said.

“What we’re doing is we are looking at every single piece of paper that we are going to produce, making sure that every victim, their name, their identity, their story, to the extent it needs to be protected, is completely protected. And so I expect that we’re going to release more documents over the next couple of weeks.”


DOJ was compelled to turn over the files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein by a bill that got near-unanimous support in Congress, signed into law after President Trump reversed his earlier stance opposing their release.

While the bill does allow for redactions related to victims and for DOJ to withhold some information about the investigation, it does not provide a rolling deadline to turn over the documents.
I appreciate the work and dedication to protect victims and witnesses
 
It seems to me that it would be nearly impossible to redact all of the information on the victims of hundreds of thousands of documents, and other things like video, pictures etc. in the short time frame given....So, what you're saying is that you don't care about the victims, as we knew.
The regime is slow walking the file's release in violation of the law trump signed.

And you're basing that on your inability to let them do what the law calls for....A victim of today's instant society no doubt...The files are coming out, just not fast enough for you...Well, too bad. Complain to your Congress critter.
 
Your question is not whether I read a news article or not, it is whether I read an article YOU approve of....
Nope. It's whether you are aware of the heavy redactions in the selected material the regime released yesterday. Not having released the whole file being a violation of law.

Again, complain to your Congress critter...Just because YOU think that is the case, doesn't make it true.

They don't... It's all about get Trump at any cost... They are so threatened that Trump might reverse their gay marriage right, their transgender bull chit, their men in females private spaces bull chit, and on and on and on it goes, that they will cling to the last crumb hoping to find a biscuit somewhere in it.
 
They have to redact and lose quite a bit of Trumpstein material or else:

All these people know that Trump would pardon them on the spot. All of them. From everyone from the administration through the Proud Boys ICE.

We have a Mafia family running this country.


Pompous CommeeStain Parrot.

kinda stupid. This isn't going away until people feel confident everything has been released. Even then there will be a subset that will question the constant dragging of feet on the issue.
If they legitimately were not through redacting the names of the innocent, should they have just dumped the files to the public since the deadline was about to pass?

So release names and pictures of victims, then. Yeah.

They should give the files to the "not Democrats" in the Senate. Let them be responsible for releasing names of victims.If that's what they think is appropriate

There are not many of them still in office. They are not a very popular bunch for obvious reasons.

Massie would do it. One of the victims had her name retracted. She came forward saying "that is me".

That's fine.

Dems and "not Dems" would love for Bondi ti get rattled and make the mistake of outing victims.

She don't rattle so easily as that.
