This year, Republicans made him the inspector general at the Dept of Labor, where he’ll be expected to investigate ethical lapses — despite his own ethical lapses. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

September 2025, a covertly recorded video was released showing Joseph Schnitt, then-Acting Deputy Chief of the DOJ Office of Enforcement Operations, claiming that the department would "redact every Republican or conservative person" from the Jeffrey Epstein files while leaving Democratic names.
Looking through the Epstein files on the DOJ website, it is extremely clear that when DOJ admitted that it redacted information related to political figures and government officials that they meant MAGA Republicans. Names of Democrats and even anti-Trump Republicans are left in.
Criminal conduct.

They’re actually redacting Trump’s name AFTER the release.
🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.
Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.
See for yourself.

The Trump Administration is NOT releasing all the Epstein files as required by law.
Trump toady Todd Blanche tried to spin the illegal move by stating that they would be releasing "hundreds of thousands of pages" without mentioning how much more evidence, including videos, are withholding.
