This headline yesterday boggled my mind.
DOJ's Inventory Of Unreleased Epstein Files Soars To 5.2 Million Pages
Remember February 2025?
Today, Attorney General Pamela Bondi, in conjunction with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), declassified and publicly released files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his sexual exploitation of over 250 underage girls at his homes in New York and Florida, among other locations ... Attorney General Bondi requested the full and complete files related to Jeffrey Epstein. In response, the Department received approximately 200 pages of documents...
I don't know what bureaucratic battles Attorney General Bondi has had to fight with an entrenched anti-Trump Justice Department and a Deep State dedicated to fighting him and his minions at every turn. Her public statements have all been along the lines that she's going to (and wants to) release all the relevant documents. She may be the victim of bureaucratic sabotage, more sinned against than sinning . . . but her public image has become one of ineptitude, incompetence and waffling.
Who hid the existence of so many documents from her, and why? Where were they kept, and why were they not catalogued in the FBI's systems so that they could be readily made available? Why have we found out about them only in dribs and drabs, never all at once so that we knew the scale of the problem? In particular, why has it taken almost a year to uncover the existence of this latest, massive "document drop"?
I understand that most, if not all, of these documents are coming out of the Justice Department's Southern District of New York. If that's the case:
- Who was/is responsible for reporting their existence when the Attorney General of the USA demanded that information?
- Who has signally failed in their duty to obey the orders of their ultimate superior and deliver the documents in a timely and usable fashion?
- Why has he/she/they not been at least administratively disciplined, if not criminally charged, for their dereliction of duty? And why has the Southern District not been cleaned out wholesale, top to bottom, and more reliable personnel appointed to it? If a major division of a large private corporation had behaved in this fashion, you may be sure heads would have rolled a long time ago!
Attorney General Bondi's credibility has been severely affected by failures to charge various individuals and address known issues over the past year. The latest development over the Epstein documents threatens to completely derail her government career. She may become poisonous to the political touch for her supporters.
WHY IS NOTHING BEING VISIBLY, IMMEDIATELY DONE, OPENLY AND WITHOUT EQUIVOCATION, TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE ONCE AND FOR ALL?
One hopes the President will act swiftly to address the matter. These problems are doing him no favors at all, and are tarnishing his administration as a whole. What's more, many of us who supported him want - demand - answers now. We're tired of waiting, and see no good reason why we should wait. If there's nothing to hide, why is it being so carefully - and so successfully - hidden?

Don't fall for the She's incompetent schtick. How many investigators can they trust? How many fights with the deep state? What about chain of custody? I'd argue that custody was lost on the documents and so none are trustworthy. How much tampering was done while the evidence was off the books?
I believe Trump is trying to use the system and save the US, a laudable goal. Had I been elected we would have finished the last public executions and things would be a way bigger mess than we can possibly imagine. We may still get there, but I do believe Trump is doing his best to prevent that, and at worst minimize the damage.
He had 4 years to plan this. His opening moves on cutting funding for NGOs, the issues going on with ICE and the judges. I hope a lot of people are waking up. He's hinted at big things coming up, let's wait and see.
That's enough pages for 2500 Bibles. I don't think there are enough people, or resources, to sort through the pages in the time period of Trump's presidency.
I fear it all goes back to what is now a cliché punchline by George Carlin: "It's a big club, and you and I ain't in it."
That explanation covers a heck of a lot of territory. What's worse, the distrust still appears to serve the Progs well.
Perhaps the public's appeal to and faith in The Higher Power may be the result. The Progs certainly have strained to kill that notion.
I think it is safe to assume that with no chain of custody what is left is not evidence that can be used in any kind of trial. In other words, the system got away with it again. In one very large sense I admit to feeling a little glad that I'm not going to see men railroaded into prison on the fakest and most uncredible "evidence" used against them in witch hunts identical to the ones that put the McMartin preschool defendants in jail for life and sent Chauvin to prison for decades for things that never happened. Our justice and law system is too broken now to be used for anything. I keep thinking we'll see vigilantism but it may be like Tom Wolfe's dark night of fascism and never land here.
