Epstein Files Release Comes With More Black Bars Than HBO Series

KEY POINTS

  • •The Department of Justice released a partial, heavily redacted set of Jeffrey Epstein files last Friday.
  • •Documents included a Massage for Dummies book gifted to a redacted 'girl,' and focused largely on Bill Clinton.
  • •Norm Eisen criticized the release as incomplete and over-redacted, noting the absence of Trump-related documents.

In a Friday feat of budget-level censorship, the Department of Justice dropped a partial Epstein files dump as underwhelming as a beige casserole. Among the cryptic goodies? A Massages for Dummies book gifted to a heavily redacted 'girl'—because nothing says subtle sexual coercion like a self-help book from the predator gift shop. Norm Eisen of Democracy Defenders Fund slammed the release as 'over-redacted'—like a DMV document rewritten by a Shakespeare blackout poet. The photo spread heavily featured Bill Clinton, conspicuously leaving Trump's friendship puzzle pieces buried deeper than Epstein’s private island secrets. Justice or cover-up? You decide with your black marker.
