The Spin
Pro-Trump narrative
Acting in full accordance with the legislation that was signed into law by President Trump, the DOJ has now released upwards of 3.5 million pages of files in relation to Epstein. The only files that have been withheld are duplicates, those that are protected by privilege or those that fall under a small category of exceptions.
Establishment-critical narrative
In spite of the files that were released under the legislation, the American people still don't have the full picture of the crimes committed by Epstein and his associates. Millions more files are missing, and there needs to be full accountability for why the DOJ appears to be more interested in protecting the powerful than seeking justice for the victims. As things stand, this is the biggest cover-up in American history.
