Congressman Daniel Goldman

One of the things that I'm noticing is what's not in the files.

As you just mentioned, the DOJ has said that they had over six million files, but they're only releasing about three to three and a half.

And we want to know, you know, where are the other 3 million files?

Why are they withholding them?

There's some files that are missing in here.

I'm talking about the indictment that was prepared against Jeffrey Epstein before he was given the sweetheart deal, as well as the memorandum in support of that, talking about interviews with victims and witnesses, talking about his crimes and also how they were covered up.

And so there's a lot that's missing in here so far, and there's no indication that any of that is in here.

And so again, I go back to August, which is when the oversight committee issued a subpoena asking for all of the documents to be released to us and go back to the last March, which is when they said they had all the documents ready to release and all of them were redacted already and ready to go.

And so there's something fishy happening again with this Department of Justice and they need to be held accountable.

Oh, certainly.

I mean, and just more than that, they forgot to redact or failed to redact more victim-identifying information in this batch as well.

We've seen a few instances already, and in the last one, they did the same.

And so, you know, they've said this is the reason to withhold files, yet it's happening again.

And then we also want to know, what are they withholding too, right?

What information are they not releasing because they feel like it's not necessary?

I think this cherry-picking of the release

is just as concerning as what's in here.
