Chapter 1: What shocking admission did the DOJ make about Trump's past?

0.031 - 30.038 Ben Meiselas

Donald Trump's Department of Justice just made a stunning admission regarding its handling of the Epstein files and Donald Trump's connections with Epstein. One of the grounds that the DOJ may be using in order to withhold massive amounts of documents relating to Donald Trump's connection with Jeffrey Epstein, as well as accusations against Donald Trump relating to sexually abusing minors,

30.018 - 51.091 Ben Meiselas

Could be that the FBI and DOJ is currently criminally investigating Donald Trump. And you may say, do you think that they're actually really criminally investigating Donald Trump? Of course, Pam Bondi and Kash Patel are not criminally investigating Donald Trump.

0

51.112 - 72.551 Ben Meiselas

But could they be claiming that there is an ongoing criminal investigation as another grounds for withholding documents that are in the Epstein files that relate to Donald Trump? They're also likely citing deliberative process privilege and other claims of privilege that they're not allowed to assert.

73.252 - 89.225 Ben Meiselas

This is criminal conduct by the Department of Justice, which I've compared to a racketeering enterprise engaged in the cover up of a child sex trafficking ring. And before you go, whoa, whoa, whoa, Ben, this is the Midas Touch Network. Receipts, please.

Chapter 2: What grounds is the DOJ using to withhold documents related to Trump and Epstein?

89.405 - 101.973 Ben Meiselas

Evidence, please. Don't give us outlandish conspiracies. What the hell are you talking about? The DOJ is criminally investigating. Donald Trump? What do you even mean by that? No, I don't think they're actually doing it. Let me be clear.

0

102.534 - 126.774 Ben Meiselas

I think that it is a pretext for them to justify in their own minds not producing documents regarding accusations against Donald Trump and documents regarding Donald Trump's connections with Epstein that I believe are still being covered up. So let's just Let's go through the evidence, shall we? So this is what the Department of Justice posted on social media.

0

127.255 - 156.158 Ben Meiselas

Remember also the DOJ rapid response account is controlled by the White House. It's run by the White House. So you know how the White House social media team has now been exposed to have that guy who runs that far right wing extremist horrific account, Johnny Maga or whatever it's called, right? Those are the people who also run the DOJ social media accounts. So here's what they posted.

0

156.198 - 163.045 Ben Meiselas

That's why it's kind of Trump making these posts with people like Johnny Maga and others in the White House.

Chapter 3: Is there an ongoing criminal investigation involving Donald Trump?

163.065 - 180.474 Ben Meiselas

DOJ Rapid Response posted the following yesterday. Oversight Dems, referring to Congress member Garcia and the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. Oversight Dems should stop misleading the public while manufacturing outrage from their radical anti-Trump base.

0

180.895 - 204.17 Ben Meiselas

The Justice Department has repeatedly said publicly and directly to NPR prior to deadline, nothing has been deleted from the Epstein files. If files are temporarily pulled for victim redactions or to redact personally identifiable information, then those documents are promptly restored online and are publicly available.

0

204.85 - 236.598 Ben Meiselas

All responsive documents have been produced unless a document falls within one of the following categories, duplicates, privileged, or part of an ongoing federal investigation. Let's just go through those very quickly. duplicates. Well, we know, for example, that a number of FBI 302 reports. These are statements with witnesses, victims and survivors are being withheld.

0

237.179 - 258.211 Ben Meiselas

We know that there is a document manifest that was produced in the Epstein files. You can see it right here. Right now, we've just posted it. Congress member Garcia's posted it. Other members have posted it from the House Oversight and others have posted in general. You see it right there. And the highlighted documents are the ones that are missing.

0

259.032 - 286.967 Ben Meiselas

And these relate to an individual who apparently is accusing Donald Trump of sexual assault when she was a minor. And these FBI 302 reports are missing. So if they are missing and they're nowhere to be found in the files, they're not being withheld on the basis of being duplicates. Because if there was a duplicate, like do they think we're stupid, right?

Chapter 4: How is the DOJ justifying its handling of Epstein-related documents?

287.447 - 311.428 Ben Meiselas

The Trump regime, like if there was a duplicate, that mean we would see it already. So you can't be withholding on the basis of duplicates if you haven't produced the original that the duplicate is based on. So that obviously doesn't apply. Privileged. Okay, what privilege are you claiming exists in an FBI 302? Are you saying that's a deliberative process privilege?

0

311.932 - 337.849 Ben Meiselas

The privilege between who and who, a survivor giving a statement to an FBI agent is in deliberative process. Deliberative process or attorney-client privilege refers to internal types of communications, which also, as I'll explain in a little bit, shouldn't be withheld. And then it says it can also be withheld if it's part of an ongoing federal investigation.

0

338.329 - 357.075 Ben Meiselas

All responsive documents, meaning all the documents that we're supposed to produce, they've been produced unless it is a duplicate, privileged, or part of an ongoing federal investigation. So are you saying that Donald Trump is under federal investigation right now? By the way, that's what the House Oversight Dems asked.

0

357.055 - 382.648 Ben Meiselas

So records of FBI interviews with a survivor of the Democrats, right, from the House Oversight Committee of Trump's alleged sexual assault of minors, of little children, little girls, aren't duplicates. There's no privilege. Are you saying that there is an active, ongoing federal investigation into President Trump? Now, I want to share with you this. Not sure if you've seen it before.

383.27 - 409.153 Ben Meiselas

It is a January 4th memo from the Department of Justice written by Todd Blanche, the Deputy AG. He's Donald Trump's former criminal defense attorney. He's now the number two at the Department of Justice. He's the guy who interviewed Ghislaine Maxwell in Tallahassee, Florida. She lied through her teeth. Then she got moved to Club Fed. She's getting that VIP treatment in Camp Bryan, Texas, right?

409.453 - 429.719 Ben Meiselas

And now she's invoking her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination, despite the fact that all of her appeals are over. She's been convicted of child sex trafficking. It's been affirmed by the Supreme Court, so she's already incriminated. because she's been found guilty of child sex trafficking, but she was moved to this other facility by Trump and Blanche.

Chapter 5: What evidence supports claims of a cover-up by the DOJ?

429.739 - 444.302 Ben Meiselas

In any event, so Blanche writes this memo, look at it, it's dated January 4th, 2026. It's an interesting date, because under the Epstein Transparency Act, all of the files were required to be produced on December 19th.

0

444.282 - 465.801 Ben Meiselas

So despite the files being required to be produced on December 19th, this memo is sent two to three weeks later instructing FBI and DOJ staff, lawyers, agents, et cetera, what they need to do in terms of marking documents, withholding documents, not producing documents.

0

465.781 - 486.591 Ben Meiselas

This memo is very telling, especially in light of that shocking admission that I showed you at the outset of what the DOJ is claiming as an excuse not to produce documents that we believe and that reporters believe show an accuser saying that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her as a minor.

486.571 - 508.045 Ben Meiselas

This memorandum, Todd Blanch writes, memorializes the protocol for conducting a responsiveness review of the Epstein files and to assist in providing guidance on redactions for victim-identifying information and other protected categories of information. please review the entire protocol before beginning your review.

0

508.506 - 527.867 Ben Meiselas

It is of paramount importance to the department that this review is thorough and that victim information is properly protected. If you have any questions about this protocol or about the documents under review, please escalate them promptly by emailing your questions to eftareview at usdoj.gov.

528.134 - 544.894 Ben Meiselas

Okay, I'd love to subpoena that account to see all of the communications that were taking place there, although they'll probably assert deliberative process privilege and not turn it over. So when you go into this next section where it says permitted withholdings and or redactions,

544.874 - 561.752 Ben Meiselas

you'll see that they even admit under the Epstein Transparency Act, it is not a permitted withholding to not produce something on the basis of a privilege, right? So let's just go through it. We're taking this step by step, right? Here's what...

561.732 - 581.574 Ben Meiselas

Todd Blanch writes, even if a document is responsive, the act allows for certain withholdings and redactions, except that no record shall be withheld, delayed, or redacted on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.

582.074 - 600.501 Ben Meiselas

Permitted withholdings or redactions under the act fall into five categories. One, that they contain personally identifiable information of victims or victims' personal medical files. Obviously, that shouldn't be produced. Depict or contain child sexual abuse materials. Obviously, that shouldn't be produced.

Chapter 6: What documents are reportedly missing from the Epstein files?

1320.006 - 1343.19 Ben Meiselas

Well, I think you got to do something is the reality is what I think. So that's where we're at right now. You know, and I know that, you know, it was a lengthy explanation, but I think that catches you up to where we're at. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers.
