Federal Judge Rules DOJ Holds Key Epstein Evidence in Trump Probe

Multiple federal judges have rejected the Trump administration's attempts to release grand jury transcripts related to Jeffrey Epstein, viewing these efforts as distractions from the extensive evidence already held by the Department of Justice. The judiciary has highlighted that the DOJ possesses over 100,000 pages of evidence, including surveillance, financial records, and witness testimonies, which could significantly illuminate Trump’s connections to Epstein. Despite this, the Trump regime appears intent on selectively releasing information to shape the narrative and avoid full transparency, thereby fueling suspicions of a cover-up. House Oversight Committee Democrats, including Ranking Member Robert Garcia, assert that new testimonies do not exonerate President Trump, who is reportedly named multiple times in the Epstein files, which the administration has refused to fully disclose. Meanwhile, former Trump operative Lev Parnas reports that Elon Musk is forming an alliance with Dan Bongino, potentially threatening to expose more about the Epstein files, causing Trump to scramble to control the leak of information. Although Trump publicly stated he would declassify the Epstein files, his administration's actions have contradicted these claims, contributing to accusations of gaslighting and broken promises among his supporters.
