DOJ Removes Epstein Files Like Forgetting Your Keys—Only More Suspicious
KEY POINTS
- •The Justice Department removed at least 15 files related to Jeffrey Epstein, including photos involving President Trump, after an initial public release.
- •Rep. Ro Khanna and Republican Rep. Thomas Massie threaten legal actions including impeachment due to alleged obstruction of justice.
- •Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche defended the removals, citing the presence of women in images, while Democrats await further document release past the December deadline.
December 2025 brought the DOJ’s latest magic trick: vanishing Jeffrey Epstein files, including photos of President Trump chilling with Epstein, Maxwell, and bikini-clad women. After releasing thousands of documents to meet a Congressional 30-day deadline (which they admitmissing), over a dozen files disappeared overnight—poof. Deputy AG Todd Blanche claimed removal centered on women in photos, not Trump, on 'Meet the Press,' a statement that’s about as convincing as a cat denying it knocked over the vase. Rep. Ro Khanna threatened impeachment and prosecution for alleged obstruction, while Rand Paul called the partial release a 'big mistake,' admitting months of political hangovers ahead.
