For the Epstein files currently available on the DOJ website, they demonstrate colossal stupidity! If you highlight the black-box redactions, you can copy-paste into a text doc (Word, etc) and read exactly what DOJ tried to redact. It's all there. krassencast.com/p/breaking-w ... [image or embed]

President Pedo clearly had nothing to hide.

As has been noted previously... a totally superior level of incompetence may be their only saving grace.

"totally superior level of incompetence"

It is possible that some in the FBI assigned to covering up for Trump are "redacting" the files in a way that is easily reversible. Presumably not everyone in the FBI is OK covering up for a pdf raypist.

Those are courageous patriots who deserve our support if/when they get caught.

The FBI agents were hired to catch criminals, not help cover up crimes.

It should be noted that the law is clear on what should be redacted, so over-redacting could be breaking the law. Unfortunately, they put no penalties into the law.

I've seen a House Rep say that FBI folk who want to talk can be given whistleblower status.

He seemed to imply that there have been contacts ...

Agreed.

True.

Maybe because any such penalties would require the DoJ to enforce them.

On the other hand, I've seen mention of Inherent Contempt, where AG Bondi could be fined for not following the law.
