Epstein Files_2
The DOJ kicked off another cycle of release-and-react, unveiling ~30,000 new Epstein Files on Monday.
The data was dumped with a disclaimer that some files contain “untrue and sensationalist” claims about President Trump, who has not been accused of wrongdoing. A federal prosecutor’s 2020 email (see here) stated Trump flew on Epstein’s jet “many more times than previously has been reported… at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996,” including with women who were “possible witnesses” in Ghislane Maxwell’s sex-trafficking trial.
The release also included a 2021 subpoena seeking records from Mar-a-Lago and an email from the British royal residence at Balmoral asking if Maxwell had found any “new inappropriate friends.”
Meanwhile, the DOJ responded to bipartisan criticism over redactions and the disappearance of some previously released files saying they were necessary “to protect victims.”
ABOVE ALL, LOVE
Culturally hot topics frequently make people think, speak, and act poorly… including us. This Christmas, seek to absorb anger and radiate God’s peace when contentious topics seek to divide God’s family.
“Above all, maintain constant love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.”
