DOJ Inspector General to Audit Epstein Files Release

DOJ Inspector General to Audit Epstein Files Release

The Spin


The DOJ has stonewalled the Epstein Files Transparency Act at every turn — missing deadlines, burying documents in unnecessary redactions and failing to protect victims' identities. Only about 3.5 million of roughly 6 million required pages have been released, and Acting AG Blanche has openly said the Epstein files "should not be a part of anything going forward." That's not transparency; that's a cover-up hiding in plain sight.

The DOJ Inspector General audit is a legitimate accountability measure, not proof of wrongdoing. The department voluntarily made millions of pages available to every member of Congress, redacted or unredacted, and Acting AG Blanche has defended the process publicly. The audit exists precisely because the system is working — an independent watchdog scrutinizing the release is exactly the oversight mechanism that should be trusted to sort out any compliance questions.
