- DOJ Redacted Names of ‘Politically Exposed Individuals’ in Epstein Files: Report
The Department of Justice redacted the names of government officials and “politically exposed individuals” in its latest release of files related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Department of Justice posted documents under the Epstein Files Transparency Act on its website Friday afternoon in accordance with the midnight deadline set by the statute signed into law by President Donald Trump last month. Many viewers reacted with disgust over the amount of blacked-out information within the almost four thousand files, despite Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche’s claim that the administration was attempting to protect “every single victim.” However, a recent report on the document dump from Fox News Digital notes that the redactions were put in place to protect more than just Epstein’s victims and accusers. “The Justice Department redacted the names and identifiers of victims. Fox News Digital has learned that the same redaction standards were applied to politically… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - ‘They’re in Violation of the Law’: Congressman Goes off on Trump Administration for Only Parti...
Rep. Suhas Subramanyam (D-VA) accused the Trump administration of being “absolutely in violation of the law” by not releasing “all” of the Jeffrey Epstein files on Friday as he railed that there was “no excuse” for anything less than a full release. The Department of Justice began releasing what a senior official said would amount to “several hundred thousand” documents related to Epstein on Friday in an initial tranche that includes many new redacted documents and photographs, with faces of victims obscured. Alongside that material, the document dump contains a significant volume of records that had already been made public. Democrats were already weighing potential legal options after the DOJ signaled that a complete disclosure of all remaining Epstein-related files is unlikely to be finished by the Friday deadline mandated in the Epstein Files Transparency Act last month. Although DOJ officials have said the process is ongoing, Subramanyam… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Critics Aghast as Trump’s Name Already Added to Kennedy Center: ‘Vandalism,’ ‘Illegal,’ â€...
AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin The announcement that President Donald Trump’s name would be added to the Kennedy Center sparked swift outrage from members of the Kennedy family and other critics of the president, outrage that spiked after Trump’s name was added to the building’s wall a mere day later. Shortly after his second inauguration, Trump appointed himself as chair the board for the Kennedy Center, and added several of his allies to the board as well. It’s been a divisive move, with the president’s MAGA supporters cheering his takeover and his critics left disgusted — and ticket sales in a free fall. On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the board had “voted unanimously to rename the Kennedy Center to the Trump-Kennedy Center, because of the unbelievable work President Trump has done over the last year in saving the building.” Leavitt’s claim of a “unanimous” vote was quickly… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Trump Admin Slammed Over Redactions In Epstein Release: ‘Most Disgusting Cover Up In American Hist...
Photo by Annabelle Gordon/Sipa USA/Sipa via AP Images The Trump Administration was hit with sharp criticism over the amount of redacted information in the newly released files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on Friday. The Department of Justice posted documents under the Epstein Files Transparency Act on its website Friday afternoon in accordance with the midnight deadline set by the statute signed into law by President Donald Trump last month. As scores of viewers began to sift through the latest document dump– numbering almost four thousand files– many reacted with outrage over the amount of blacked out information. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told Fox & Friends host Lawrence Jones that the level of blackout was necessary to protect victims, blaming the Trump administration’s failure to release all of the files in time for the deadline on the need for redactions. “I expect that we’re going to release… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Jake Tapper Scrolls Through Blacked Out Epstein Files on Phone: ‘It’s Just 100 Pages of Redactio...The Department of Justice’s partial release of the Epstein files on Friday drew the scrutiny of CNN’s Jake Tapper, who complained about just how much “transparency” the Trump administration was providing in compliance with the law. The Epstein Transparency Act, signed into law by President Donald Trump, required all of the files on the convicted sex trafficker to be released by midnight Friday, which wasn’t expected to happen. The bill’s co-sponsor, Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), claimed there would be consequences for the DOJ missing the deadline, and threatened on social media, “Any person who attempts to conceal or scrub the files will be subject to prosecution under the law.” CNN Justice Correspondent Evan Perez said that the heavy redactions will be a topic of conversation in Congress. “One of the things I think we’re going to see going forward is the question of, why can’t we see that?… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
- DOJ’s Epstein Files Drop Shows Michael Jackson, Bill Clinton, and More
Credit: The Department of Justice via The New York Times On Friday afternoon, as the 11:59 pm deadline of the Epstein Files Transparency Act approached, the Department of Justice posted a slew of documents to its website, with former President Bill Clinton and Michael Jackson among those heavily featured alongside convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. According to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in a Friday appearance on Fox & Friends, the DOJ planned to “release several hundred thousand documents today” and then “more documents over the next couple of weeks.” President Donald Trump signed the Transparency Act into law last month. While the files are publicly accessible on the DOJ website, MS NOW reported that search functions on the site seem to be faulty. Upon accessing the drop shortly after it went live, Mediaite saw a message saying the site was “currently experiencing extremely high volume of search requests at this time.”… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
