"The White House hasn't been hiding these files for months only to dump them late on a Friday to protect Bill Clinton. This is about shielding themselves from what comes next, or from what they'll try and hide forever. So they can release as many grainy, 20-plus-year-old photos as they want, but this isn't about Bill Clinton. Never has, never will be. Even Susie Wiles said Donald Trump was wrong about Bill Clinton.

There are two types of people here. The first group knew nothing and cut Epstein off before his crimes came to light. The second group continued relationships with him after. We're in the first. No amount of stalling by people in the second group will change that.

Everyone, especially MAGA, expects answers, not scapegoats.”

"Today, the Department of Justice publicly released materials related to Jeffrey Epstein under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Additional responsive materials will be produced as our review continues, consistent with the law and with protections for victims."

46. SCREENGRAB OF SOCIAL MEDIA POST FROM CONGRESSMAN ROBERT GARCIA, CA-DEM, THAT READS:

In a letter to Congress on Friday (December 19), Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Justice Department had released hundreds of thousands of pages of material and was still reviewing other documents for potential release. He said he thought it would take an additional two weeks to review the rest of the material. There are more than 1,200 names identified as victims or their relatives in the files, he added.

47. SCREENSHOT OF FIRST PAGE OF EPSTEIN FILES LETTER TO CONGRESS FROM DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

48. SCREENSHOT OF FIRST PARAGRAPH OF LETTER, READING (English):

"Members of Congress:

I write to notify you that today the Department of Justice is producing hundreds of thousands of pages of responsive materials in compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act (the Act). Under the leadership of President Donald .J TrumpandAttorney General Pam Bondi,this unprecedented disclosure highlights our commitment to following the law, being transparent, and protecting victims. President Donald .J Trump signed the Act into law on November 19, 2025. In compliance with the Act, the Department of Justice- -at the direction of the Attorney General-h a s been working to ensure that all responsive materials have been identified, collected, uploaded, reviewed, and publicly produced within 30 days as required under the Act. See Sec. 2(a)."

49. SCREENSHOT OF SECOND PARAGRAPH OF LETTER, READING (English):

"This letter will summarize the Department's historic efforts and disclose specific details regarding the review and production process. Never in American history has a President or the Department ofJustice been this transparent with the American people about such a sensitive law enforcement matter. Democrat administrations in the past have refused to provide full details of the Jeffrey Epstein saga. But President Trump, Attorney General Bondi, and FBI Director Patel are committed to providing full transparency consistent with the law."

50. SCREENSHOT OF THIRD PARAGRAPH OF LETTER, READING (English):

"As part of the collection and review process, the Department is continuing to review additional documents and other items for potential responsiveness. Just this week one of the Department's components provided additional victim information requiring updated review of materials, and in the last few weeks multiple courts have granted the Department's unsealing motions, requiring detailed review of thousands of pages of investigative and grand jury material. Several components have just provided documents this week. Because of the volume of the material and the requirement that every page of every document be reviewed for potential redactions under the Act, final stages of review of some material continue. A district court judge in the Southern District of New York separately imposed additional requirements on the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, adding additional layers of review to minimize the risk of inadvertent production of protected victim information. I anticipate this ongoing review being completed over the next two weeks."

51. SCREENSHOT OF NINTH PARAGRAPH OF LETTER, READING (English):

"Protecting victims is of the highest priority for President Trump, the Attorney General, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Department ofJustice. As part of the review and production, the Department solicited counsel for any victims of Jeffrey Epstein and invited counsel to provide us with names of victims, whether previously identified or not. This process resulted in over 1,200 names being identified as victims or their relatives. The Department has redacted reference to such names. In addition to redacting the names of these victims, the Department has also redacted and is not producing any materials that could result in their identification."

52. SCREENSHOT OF FIRST PARAGRAPH OF CONCLUSION OF LETTER, READING (English):

"Conclusion

This Department's commitment to transparency and compliance with the law has been historic. Even before the Act's passage, never before has there been aDepartment-wide effort to provide this level of transparency for a criminal case that ended less than 7 years earlier. The Attorney General is grateful to the Department attorneys, staff, and employees who worked long hours to ensure that the Department complied with the Act."

53. SCREENSHOT OF SECOND PARAGRAPH OF CONCLUSION OF LETTER, READING (English):

"The Act requires the Department to publicly produce all responsive materials within 30 days of its enactment. See Sec. 2(a). The Department has worked diligently to meet the Act's deadline. But the volume o fmaterial to be reviewed-~-many of which continue to be produced to JMD- means that the Department must publicly produce responsive documents on a rolling basis. The Department's need to perform rolling productions is consistent with well-settled case law that statutes should be interpreted to not require the impossible. See Anniston Mfg. Co. v. Davis, 301 U.S. 337, 350 (1937); see also McNeil v. Time Ins. Co., 205 F.3d 179, 187 (Sth Cir. 2000) ("It is a flawed and unreasonable construction of any statute to read it in a manner that demands the impossible.")."

54. SCREENSHOT OF FOURTH PARAGRAPH OF CONCLUSION OF LETTER, READING (English):

"The Department will continue to follow the Review Protocol and add to the public website materials that are responsive under the Act, and the Department will inform Congress when that review and production are complete by the end of this year. The Department's commitment to transparency, following the law, and protecting all victims under the leadership of President Trump, Attorney General Bondi, and FBI Director Patel will never waver.

Sincerely,

Todd Blanche

Deputy Attorney General."

A White House spokeswoman praised the Trump administration following the latest release by the U.S. Justice Department of more than 300,000 pages of records from its investigations into the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on Friday (December 19), bowing to pressure from lawmakers who forced their disclosure with a new law.

INTERNET (DECEMBER 19, 2025) (WHITE HOUSE via REUTERS - Access all) (MUTE)

55. STATEMENT BY WHITE HOUSE SPOKESWOMAN ABIGAIL JACKSON, READING (English):

“The Trump Administration is the most transparent in history. By releasing thousands of pages of documents, cooperating with the House Oversight Committee’s subpoena request, and President Trump recently calling for further investigations into Epstein’s Democrat friends, the Trump Administration has done more for the victims than Democrats ever have. And while President Trump is delivering on his promises, Democrats like Hakeem Jeffries and Stacey Plaskett have yet to explain why they were soliciting money and meetings from Epstein after he was a convicted sex offender. The American people deserve answers.”

Democratic Representative Ro Khanna of California said on Friday (December 19) "the law requires all unclassified documents related to Epstein to be released".

Addressing journalists via Zoom, Khanna said, "it is disappointing that they haven't been able to release these documents on time in compliance with the law. While it's clear they're trying at the very least to meet the deadline, they should have been able to do more." (1548-USA-TRUMP/EPSTEIN-DOJ-KHANNA)

Criminal defense attorney Randy Zelin appeared to disagree with the release of records, saying public figures seen in photographs with Epstein would’ve been prosecuted already if they committed wrongdoing. (1513-USA-TRUMP/EPSTEIN-RELEASE-ANALYST)
