Five days *after* the deadline to release all Epstein files, the Trump regime is telling us it has “uncovered over a million more documents.”
Obstruction, incompetence or both?

Since the DOJ is now saying they have "uncovered" one million more documents they claim to not know about, doesn't that put seriously in doubt this absurd claim by FBI Director Patel that Epstein had not trafficked anyone?

“.. if an applicant can find Trump at Mar-a-Lago or a White House event and ask for a pardon directly, Trump is often inclined to be helpful, administration officials said—particularly if someone says the magic words: ‘unjust persecution.’”

The AG is *supposed* to be the people’s lawyer, not the president’s. This is outrageous.

It also indicates Trump feels that he needs protection from Epstein file disclosures.
Axios has learned the White House has begun managing the DOJ's account on X to respond to posts highlighting mentions of Trump in the Epstein files.

In typical administrations, there is a wall between the White House and what is supposed to be an independent Justice Department.

Nothing like asking career AUSAs who have been under assault for the last year, watched their colleagues get fired for no reason, and their offices taken over by incompetent boobs to volunteer their time to perpetuate a cover up of their boss's involvement w/a sex predator 🙃

Everyone should read this week’s WSJ story on Trump selling pardons. It’s some of the most corrupt shit I’ve ever seen—you can literally corner him at one of his lame parties and walk away with a pardon. How is this not the biggest story in the country?

I don’t wanna sound partisan but I think it’s bad when the president keeps raging publicly about free speech and late night comedy he doesn’t like and threatening state censorship all the time, and also using language that is easily construed as calling for someone’s death
