1. It won't matter. The victims have indicated they will come out with

their own list.

[CentralMass]

12. We will have to see how that goes ?

I was scratching my head listening to the victims asking Trump to help them.

13. In this case, its not about that. THIS about using the transparency of information

about arguably the worst crime of this century so far, and using it as a POLITICAL RAT FUCK that honestly, I think is beneath even Roger Stone.
THAT is an action that should, finally, ENRAGE the democratic party into the action that is clearly requires of this moment.
NOTHING should be done until congress passes that discharge petition, and under armed federal Marshalls those files are pulled from the DOJ in their entirety, because now the DOJ has admitted they can't be trusted.

Give us the damned files, or we WILL shut the whole thing down.

2. Trump is probably shaking down accused individuals to have their identities redacted.

[Biophilic]

3. That's not really a surprise is it?

[progressoid]

4. Uh...Project Veritas?

Got anything reputable?

[newdeal2]

9. I'm happy that freak is going after the GOP for a change

If this causes a greater schism within the GOP, great. The party of pedo protectors needs some accountability.

11. True. I just prefer not to promote them as a source

DOJ Responds to Secret Tape of Official Detailing Epstein Files Plan

Far-right activist James O’Keefe released a secret recording of a top Justice Department official talking about the Epstein files ... and the DOJ responded with the most bizarre screenshot.

The Justice Department on Thursday scrambled to address alleged revelations about the Epstein files published by James O’Keefe—founder of the far-right Project Veritas, known for its hidden-camera stings, in which individuals are secretly filmed disclosing information about the organizations that employ them.

O’Keefe shared a video that, he said, showed an undercover operative eliciting eyebrow-raising statements from a top DOJ official, Acting Deputy Chief of Special Operations Joseph Schnitt, about the department’s files on the notorious late sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, as well as a supposed deal with Epstein’s convicted accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

In the secret recording, Schnitt acknowledges that the Epstein files do exist—“thousands and thousands of pages of files”—and goes on to detail the DOJ’s plan.

“They’ll redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people in those files,” the official said over lunch. He also noted that Maxwell was “transferred to a minimum-security prison too recently, which is against [Federal Bureau of Prisons] policy because she’s a convicted sex offender,” adding, “They’re offering her something to keep her mouth shut.”

O’Keefe’s supposed bombshells here, as always, warrant skepticism, as they are notoriously sensationalized and often deceptively edited.

5. I don't care. Get one, get ten, get them all. But suspect crummy source

O’keefe media group is james okeefe. Who’s been full of it since he started.

[milestogo]

6. Not much of an FBI any more, is it?

[KT2000]

7. should we believe O'Keefe media group?

I will wait for verification elsewhere.

[B.See]

8. You mean the files

that supposedly "don't exist?" The politicians that don't appear in videos with Epstein, oogling and snorting over potential victims? The Epstein buds who weren't in 8x10 glossies on Epstein's desk??

Riiight. That oughta clear the adjudicated rapist.

[Whyisthisstillclose]

10. Why are so many people ready and willing to protect these pedophile animals?

The few witnesses that come forward will only know the limited number of identifiable rapists they had personal contact with. This crime went on for many years and involves hundreds of scumbags

14. The video is legit and it doesn't appear anything significant has been deceptively edited.

However, the "interpretation" being presented (that the FBI will definitely redact out all mentions of Republicans) is misleading at best. The guy says in his message to DOJ that everything he said was his own opinion and based on what he's hear in the media and he didn't reveal anything he learned at work. That means nobody at the DOJ explicitly said they would redact out all Republicans, just that he figures that is what they will do. Of course that opinion could be based on what he has gleaned from his co-workers and colleagues at the DOJ.
