You are on to something: there are no necessarily strong and clear monetary incentives to break the news. But for most, books don’t make any money: it’s a route to speaking tours and other stuff. Lizza is trying to boost his newsletter now, but he could have done it earlier. Just bad decisions?

The docs also reveal the number of hours the FBI devoted to the project, which required some agents to work nights and weekends. The FBI paid personnel $851,344 in overtime for working on the Epstein files between March 17 and March 22.

My group's firing appears to have been a consequence of a right-wing article from 2023 calling us, and I quote, "a cabal of perpetually triggered leftists obsessed with politics and pronouns"
