In a new motion, the DOJ urged Judge Paul A. Engelmayer to reject the request, stating that the court had no authority to approve it because neither Khanna nor Massie were involved in the criminal case against Maxwell that landed her behind bars.

Apparently he can Hide the Epstein Files on 5th Ave, LIE about it... and not lose any Trumper votes.

They do so seem to love being lied to... undoc immigrant crime? Many, many times less per capita than avg citizen crime, especially violent crime and murder.

The economy? Militarily bullying other nations? ICE bullying people by skin color or accent? His financial scams? His Tariff lies? His persecuting political enemies and Pardoning criminal donors and friends?

I could go on... he's polling lower than ever on ALL those things; losing swing voters and many moderate Republicans... pretty much losing all but the 37 percent Trumper Base.

Who put up with being lied to apparently because it irritates Commie Dems. (of which very few actually even exist)
