Trump's FBI Spent Nearly $1 Million Redacting Epstein Files

The bill mandating the Department of Justice to release the Jeffrey Epstein files has been signed into law, but certain parts may still never be seen by the public. That's at least in part because the DOJ has been paying FBI agents nearly $1 million in overtime to work on the "Epstein Transparency Project" at a bureau facility in Winchester, Virginia.

FBI Director Kash Patel has tasked nearly 1,000 agents on the project, which, according to internal reports, has also been referred to as the "Special Redaction Project." Between March 17 and March 22, the bureau spent $851,344, according to a Bloomberg report, and agents racked up 4,737 hours of overtime pay between January and July looking through the DOJ's evidence on Epstein.

imo, it is not only about the cost.

For me, what tasks were those FBI agents pulled away from?

What protections did the FBI not provide while the gents were on this task?

And what, exactly, was the task they were assigned to do? Has there been an official explanation?
