Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

Trump and Bondi are in flagrant violation of a law passed unanimously by Congress. It’s a huge and shocking f-ck you to the survivors, Congress, and the American people.
I don’t think the law passed by Congress said that DOJ has to release less than 1% of the materials by Dec 19.

The only explanation for why Trump is willing to take such a huge political hit keeping these Epstein files hidden is bcuz he knows what’s in those files about him is really, really, really, really bad. That’s the only explanation for this massive Trump led coverup.

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.

Washington Post's new headline is still wrong.

1. The release was not "huge."
2. DOJ missed the deadline to release all the files.
3, No mention of extensive redactions.

Even as other legacy media outlets are coming around to the fact that the DOJ Epstein File release was a sham, the Washington Post continues to parrot the administration's talking points.

WOW: Fox News reports that the DOJ used the same redaction standards for “politically exposed individuals and government officials” as it did for victims.

Here we go. Elise Stefanik changed everything she was, everything she believed in, for power. And in the end, Trump endorsed another dude and Elise is out.

Pam Bondi should come before the Judiciary Committee, under oath, and explain this willful violation of the law.

The Trump Justice Department has had months to keep their promise to release all of the Epstein Files.

Epstein's survivors and the American people need answers now.

The Department of Justice failed to publicly release all of its files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein by a Friday deadline, violating a new federal law explicitly mandating that the trove of documents be turned over for public scrutiny, Republican and Democratic lawmakers said.

This is more of a coverup than an actual release of the Epstein Files.
I guess Epstein isn’t in the Epstein files.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.

I don't do much looking back at my own writing, but I've been thinking about this piece a lot today. From tenderly protecting Trump from criminal consequences to enthusiastically helping him dismantle the administrative state, Roberts owns it all.

Steve Bannon reportedly said: 'You raised a kid that slit your throat!' about the late Rob Reiner.

A reminder that not a single prominent Democrat or liberal pundit said anything even vaguely akin to this when Charlie Kirk was murdered.

Oh the hypocrisy.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”…

BULLSHIT.

@repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition.

This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.
