Epstein Chronicles Host (1:20)
What's up everyone? And welcome to another episode of of the Epstein Chronicles. Imagine this. The Department of Justice standing at a crossroads with one path leading towards truth and the other towards convenience. If they were serious about justice in the Epstein and Maxwell crimes, they wouldn't have sat Ghislaine Maxwell down for a sanitized, fireside, friendly deposition where the questions were as hollow as the answers. Instead, they would have turned the microphones toward the survivors and the women and girls who were preyed upon, silenced and abandoned by the very institutions sworn to protect them. Now, these survivors aren't just footnotes in some court record. They're the beating heart of this whole entire story. The living proof of what was allowed to happen in plain sight. Yet once again, their pain was pushed aside, their voices drowned out by the hum of deal making and procedural pageantry. That choice, the choice to elevate the comfort of the accused over the cries of the violated, reveals a justice system more concerned with appearances than with accountability. Survivors shouldn't have to fight for scraps or recognition while the perpetrators of their abuse are granted the dignity of negotiation. Justice doesn't come from whispered conversations behind closed doors. It comes from placing the truth front and center, no matter how uncomfortable it makes those in power. Now, the DOJ had a chance to show the world that no one is above the law, that the survivors mattered more than the criminals who destroyed them. Instead, they showed us what many already that the system bends for the powerful, even when the powerful are monsters. The truth is, the survivors have already been silenced for years by manipulation and by institutions that look the other way every time they were dismissed, ignored, or disbelieved. Epstein and Maxwell grew stronger. And when the moment finally came for accountability, what did the DOJ do? They sat across from Maxwell like she was some kind of business partner, negotiating terms instead of exposing crimes. They gave her legitimacy when she deserved nothing but condemnation. That image, a convicted trafficker being treated as though her cooperation was more valuable than the testimony of survivors, sends a chilling message to every victim who still wonders if speaking up is worth the cost. It tells them the system doesn't really want you. It wants to manage you. It wants your silence when it's inconvenient, and your pain only when it's marketable. And that's the sickness at the core of all of this. Because true justice is inconvenient. It's not polite, and it's not negotiated over conference tables. True justice forces us to face the ugliest parts of who we are and what we've allowed. It demands that we look the survivors in the eye, hear their stories without flinching, and honor their courage by refusing to let their abusers dictate the terms of accountability. And so we're left here, once again, in the familiar shadow of betrayal. Survivors pushed to the background, the accused treated with deference, and the DoJ congratulating itself for going through the motions. But the motions are not enough. Not now, not ever. Because what hangs in the balance isn't just the legacy of Epstein and Maxwell. It's the credibility of the very institutions that. That claim to protect us. If the Department of Justice cannot or will not center the survivors, then it's failing at its most basic duty to pursue justice without fear or favor. Until that changes, all we're left with is theater masquerading as accountability, while the real voices, the voices of the broken, the silenced, the forgotten, are forced to keep screaming into the void. Today's article is from the Guardian, and the headline, no Outreach to Epstein Victims. Despite Trump's vow to investigate. Lawyers say this article was authored by Victoria B. Kempis. For more than six months, Donald Trump and his Justice Department have insisted they would get to the bottom of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes. But nine attorneys who have represented approximately 50 Epstein survivors told the Guardian they have not been recently contacted by the Justice Department. Now, if you were really doing an investigation, right, wouldn't you be contacting the people that are making the claims? We all know no victim, no crime, right? So it's very important, obviously, to speak with the victims who. Who are claiming that they were wronged. But instead we have a fireside chat with Ghis Maxwell. For what purpose? Now look, I'm all ears if you have some good reasons as to why anyone should be sitting down with Gain Maxwell, never mind the Deputy Attorney General. There is literally no logical explanation for it. Unless, of course, you're looking at it through the lens of a cover up, then, yeah, it looks like a logical thing to do. Right? Keep Ghislaine Maxwell happy, make sure she's not making any waves and tell her, just bide your time. When my term's up, I'm a lame duck and I'll give you that pardon. Now, look, I don't know if that's a conversation that's been had, but it's the optics, right? And that's all we have to go off of. And that's because, once again, we're not getting any transparency from the administration. The revelation cast out on the effort by the Trump administration to fully investigate Epstein's crimes and activities and reveal everything that the government knows about him. It comes as Trump faces intense political pressure, including from his own base over his social ties to Epstein, who was famed for courting rich and powerful figures into his circle. There has still been no outreach from the DOJ or members of Congress to me state seeking to interview my clients, said top civil attorney Gloria Allred, who has represented 27 Epstein survivors. And I saw some talk on social media from people talking about Gloria Allred. And look, I've been very public with how I feel about Gloria Allred and her daughter, Lisa Bloom. I do not like them. But does that mean that the people who are claiming that they were abused are lying? I mean, come on, what kind of ridiculous nonsense is that? You have to look at each story for what it is and take the merits of that story for what they are. Each one of these claims is unique. This isn't just a gigantic monolith where one claim means everyone's telling the truth, or one claim means everyone's lying. So like I've told you folks from the very beginning, don't trust this one, don't trust that one. Follow the evidence wherever the evidence goes. Lisa Bloom, who has represented 11 Epstein survivors, said, no, I haven't heard anything. As usual, the survivors are being ignored in the political battle. And that's really what it comes down to. That's what this is now. It's a political football, and it's getting kicked back and forth. Meanwhile, nothing's being accomplished, right? No movement, no real investigations. We have names out there already, and I'm not talking about people that are just accused of enabling. What about the people that have been accused of abuse itself? We're talking about Glenn Dubin, we're talking about Les Wexner, we're talking about George Mitchell, we're talking about Bill Richardson, we're talking about Marvin Minsky. I mean, come on, folks. Everybody talks about they want a list, they want this, they want that, they want the other thing. But the names that are already out there, Nobody has any desire to do anything about that. So is it that you want names or. Or is it that you want names of people that you think you can use this as a political cudgel against? And obviously, there's a whole lot of that going on right now. And the more that this is politicized, the less it humanizes the people who are affected the most. Spencer Kuvan, the chief legal officer of Goldlaw, similarly said there had not been outreach by law enforcement officials or Congress. The House Oversight Committee has issued subpoenas regarding Epstein and. And met with some victims. Earlier this week, the panel did release a tranche of documents the Justice Department provided pursuant a subpoena, but virtually none contained new information. And that's certainly a roadblock that we have faced time and time again. Recycled information being dropped, and then them telling us that it's new. I have heard nothing from the doj, and they have provided me no updates to give to my clients. I have even sent letters to the committee chair volunteering to speak with them about the original investigation and litigation. This letter was completely ignored. Kuvan said it's appalling that the federal government is again failing to keep the victims at the center of this investigation. Instead, it appears that all the government is interested in is attempting to whitewash the prior investigation. And that's really what it comes down to. To me, they know how embarrassing this is all going to be, and they just can't have it. So they're going to fight tooth and nail to make sure you never know what really happened. And if that doesn't enrage you, I don't know what will. Jennifer Freeman, special counsel at Marsh Law Firm, who represents the Epstein survivor, Maria Farmer, in her suit against the federal government, condemned this apparent lack of outreach, noting the lengthy talk between the deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanch, and the convicted sex trafficker, Ghislaine Maxwell. It's atrocious that the DOJ ignored or dismissed the survivors of Epstein and Maxwell for decades and that recently the second in command spent two days coddling a known sex abuser, Glenn Maxwell, and asking her soft powder puff questions instead of conducting a true and proper investigation, freeman said. And look, there's no doubt about that. I don't know how you could look at those transcripts, read through them and not come away thinking that, that the fix is in. And I said it from the start with gain Maxwell and the doj, they're doing themselves a disservice by involving her in any capacity. And once we got a look at those transcripts, that was certainly the case. Not only has the DOJ refused to engage survivors, but they obstructed routine and valid requests for information. In January of 2025, in response to a basic Freedom of Information act request, the government informed us that they would respond by November 2027, nearly three years later. That's abysmal and completely unacceptable. Well, yeah, it sure is. I mean, can you imagine the government trying to kick the can down the road like this time and time again? Anything they can do to run out the clock. Attorney Jack Scarola said. My last contact with the DOJ was during the Maxwell trial while I was representing Carolyn Andriano in her capacity as a principal DOJ witness. Andriano died of a drug overdose in May of 2023. Another attorney simply said, Not a word from the DOJ. The lack of outreach flies in the face of numerous public commitments by Trump and others in his administration to fully and transparently investigate Epstein. This Department of Justice is following through on President Trump's commitment to transparency and lifting the veil on disgusting actions of Jeffrey Epstein and his co conspirators. The US Attorney General, Pamela Bondi said in February as it released some of the Epstein documents. The first phase of files released today sheds light on Epstein's extensive network and and begins to provide the public with long overdue accountability. And then that just all stops, right? And we're supposed to accept the narrative that they give us? Stop it. Would you accept it if it was the Biden administration pumping that to you? You know you wouldn't. So demand the same ass accountability here.
