Epstein Files Update: 5 Key Takeaways in Major New York Times Report
www.newsweek.com

... In a blistering new report, The New York Times presents an account of the Epstein files triggering a behind-the-scenes crisis inside President Donald Trump's White House, with top officials scrambling in secret meetings, fearing backlash from their own political base and debating strategies they knew might not fully deliver transparency.

The report comes after months of fallout tied to the government's handling of the files involving Epstein -- a sex offender and financier who in 2019 died in a New York City jail cell while awaiting his sex-trafficking trial -- beginning with a 2025 Department of Justice (DOJ) memo that found no evidence of a "client list" and fueled backlash among Trump's supporters, followed by the release of millions of pages of records mandated by the Epstein Files Transparency Act. ...

We the biden admin held and covered up those files for four years and you libbies pretty much ignored their holding back those files. Why so concerned noways. Personally I'd like all released and the first I recommend going after would be bill gates.

It's SO hard to know where the stupid stops and the lying starts with Trumpers:

"Epstein case was an open investigation under Biden
The Epstein case was an open criminal investigation during the Biden administration, Miami Herald investigative reporter Julie K. Brown explained on social media.

Brown's extensive reporting since 2017 has shone a light on the crimes of Epstein and his longtime accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. Her book about Epstein, titled "Perversions of Justice," is a New York Times bestseller.

"They had an open grand jury. ... And even after Maxwell's conviction, the case was on appeal " anyone in law enforcement knows you don't open your case file when it's still under appeal," Brown added.

Victims were still going to the FBI with information during Biden's term, but that changed when President Donald Trump's Department of Justice reviewed the files and closed the case in July, Brown said."

Why were the epstein files not released under Joe Biden's term? (2025)
factually.co

... The Epstein investigative files remained largely unreleased during President Joe Biden's term primarily because they were part of active criminal investigations, subject to grand-jury secrecy, and entangled in legal and privacy constraints -- not because of a simple political decision to conceal them, according to reporting and statements from journalists and officials [1] [2] [3].

Political fights over the files intensified later, with critics accusing the Biden DOJ of inaction while defenders pointed to prosecutorial independence and ongoing legal processes as the central reasons for nonrelease [4] [5] ...
