There have been files from Epstein's personal email and text messages that have been released by the House Oversight Committee, and they don't have context.
But we have picked up on a few major points from what we have seen so far.
The main thing is that Jeffrey Epstein had a deep, wide...
oftentimes very personal relationship with a lot of powerful people in academia and politics and science and philanthropy, you name it.
And these messages that are in there that have come out show that a lot of people stood by him, talked to him, relied on him for advice well after he was convicted for sex crimes.
And that's really the main takeaway from that.
On the
Other end, you also have a lot of information about finances, his finances, other people's finances that we haven't been able to go through yet because there are just so many pages.
And this is something that is just going to take a lot of time to fully digest before we get any sort of complete picture.
It didn't go very well.
In the hours after the files were released, attorneys representing the victims flagged that there were several instances of their clients, these women who testified about horrible, horrible examples of sexual abuse, finding their names, and in some cases, photographs in the files unredacted.
And we were able to look
and find people who have spoken out publicly, their names in the files, and using context, photos and names of other victims who have not come forward and had their name out there in those files.
And the Department of Justice said they took those down after they were flagged and said that it was only about a tenth of a percent of everything that they have put out so far, which is still thousands of pages of this happening.
Yeah, there's nothing really new or revelatory about anything that Donald Trump himself may have done in these files, because they had a friendship, they went back, they were in the same circles.
We knew from other files that they had a falling out.
And when that falling out happened, and when Trump became president, Epstein became obsessed with Donald Trump.
And a lot of his communications with different people were
talking smack about Donald Trump as president or saying, this is what I think his psyche is like and trying to be a sort of Trump whisperer of things.
So there is a relationship here.
