What secrets will actually survive the Epstein Files release next month? On this unflinching episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara sits down with ABC News legend Terry Moran for a no-holds-barred breakdown of Trump’s “Obscene Files Transparency Act” – the bill that promises everything and already contains every loophole needed to protect the powerful. They dissect the redaction teams already scrubbing Trump’s name, the national-security excuses ready to be deployed, the terrified career officials who won’t dare leak, and why the full truth about Epstein’s sweetheart deal, his possible intelligence ties, and decades of elite protection may still never see daylight. Then they pivot to the bigger picture: Trump’s obsession with foreign glory while the economy craters, his vanishing mandate on affordability, the fracturing MAGA base, the coming Republican civil war, and the stunning rise of NYC’s new socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani – a 33-year-old populist who just beat the machine on a platform of frozen rent and free buses. From the Oval Office to City Hall, nothing is off limits. Which part of this mess do you think actually gets exposed first – the Epstein redactions, the economy, or Trump vs. his own base?
