My takeaway: hundreds of people now know what’s in the files. Get to work, journalists.
Ya don't say...

"[DOJ] officials diverted hundreds of F.B.I. employees and federal prosecutors from their regular duties to go through the documents at least four times — including once to flag any references to Mr. Trump and other prominent figures."

Republicans just blocked another vote to force release of the Epstein files, this time in the Senate.

The resolution to force a vote was offered by @gallego.senate.gov; Republicans immediately moved to prevent a vote.

Apparently Fox deliberately edited a 2024 interview with Donald Trump to cut out his unwillingness to release the full Epstein files because of “phony” stuff in it.

Check out what Trump said vs. how Fox edited it:

Hey Veterans, the Republicans are coming for you too.

And keep in mind that they lie about everything so any assurance that this won't affect you is certainly bogus.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Just got off a call with Dem leadership in the House
1. There are over 20 republicans that are soft on the Budget Monstrosity
2. They will get a ton of pressure to vote for it
3. We can create even more pressure to vote against it, but it will take all of us
4. We only need 4 flips.
