Okay?

And there were previous document reviews done by SDNY and by the Southern District of Florida. It wasn't like this. DOJ had to review it for the first time. Oh, oh, wait. They fired everybody who was involved in the Epstein case as part of their cover up. So they had nobody working at the DOJ who even knew the files. Because Trump wanted to fire Maureen Comey, James Comey's daughter, who was the lead prosecutor against Epstein and Ghislaine. But I digress. It goes on to say this has required review of more than 5 million pages, more taller than the Washington Monument. So what? Stop acting like that. That's not a lot of documents in the legal world for people who handle Big Document Productions. Ms. Bondi and her team at the Justice Department on a commend job in releasing the first installment of documents in December. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche noted that the practical demands of the review process made it impossible to release all materials within 30 days. He said the department was working as fast as possible and would release the rest of the files on a rolling basis. Well right there, let me fact check you. A rolling basis means rolling basis. If that was the case, why not every day, 50,000 documents, 50,000 documents, 25,000 documents, heck, 5,000 docum. There hasn't been any documents released over the past three weeks. More lies, more lies. And then Bill Barr is like. But that wasn't good enough for the critics, some of whom are claiming that Ms. Bondi has flouted the law. Anyone familiar with the realities of document production of this magnitude would understand the 30 day deadline was patently reasonable. The upfront work needed to prepare the staggering volume of material for review, collecting everything responsive, uploading it onto the required platform and promulgating protocols could easily consume most of the 30 days by itself. Sure Bill, but you're mate, you're missing the main point. Bondi said she had all of it on her desk in February. Then they said this review, this process was happening March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November. The reason the law had to be passed was because they had to force the production that the DOJ had already done and said that they completed. That's the thing about this Trump regime and how deceitful that they are because they, they try to play people like they're stupid and corporate news isn't going to cover it the way that I just did. And it's important that we push back and why I give you the details that I did. But notice that Donald Trump calls in his hatchet man Bill Barr to do that dirty work. Let me just talk to you about what went down this past week though where the MAGA Republicans is also as part of their cover up scheme as Donald Trump's dark past gets out there is they focus on Bill Clinton. Hillary Clinton hold Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton in contempt. Chairman Comer blast the Clintons unreasonable demands to evade contempt. They believe their last name entitles them to special treatment. No, release the freaking files. And then we can see who the hierarchy of people who should be deposed. You wanna know who's top on the hierarchy before the Clintons in my view, Ghislaine Maxwell, who now apparently was willing to speak with Todd Blanche, Donald Trump's former criminal defense attorney turned number two at the Department of Justice. But now she's not gonna come in for a deposition deposition or she's going to invoke the fifth Amendment when she slide through her teeth to Todd Blanche now that she has to come under oath. And by the way if you want to take a deposition of Clinton, then take the deposition of Donald Trump. Trump's relationship with Epstein was far more extensive than Clinton, but, oh, you just focus on Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton. Why? Because you're partisan hacks, that's why. And you don't care about the truth. All you care about is using the Oversight Committee coma and your ilk to cover up Donald Trump's wrongdoing and his horrible, horrible behavior. By the way, Donald Trump's been found civilly liable of sexual abuse. Donald Trump is on audio bragging that he grabs women by their vaginas without their consent because he's rich and you get away with it. He's on tape bragging about sexually assaulting women. He's on tape bragging about how he looks at the girls naked during beauty pageants because he inspected them naked. And that's what you do when you're the inspector of the beauty pageant. Sick, sick, depraved. Oh, and then he goes, oh, that wasn't my signature on the letter to Epstein. I never wrote that. Just a time traveler wrote the letter and planted it in the Epstein files. We have all those emails with Epstein and Ghislaine before Donald Trump was ever in office or running for office, talking about all of Donald Trump's horrific conduct in real time with them. We know all of this stuff.

Let me just take you into the hearing that took place this week where you where they wanted to the Magas were holding Clinton and Hillary in contempt. Here is what Democratic Congress member Robert Garcia had to say. Play this clip.

E (14:17)

Taylor Greene on this committee reported that Trump told her that he wanted to continue his cover up because, quote, my friends will get hurt. Donald Trump is leading a White House cover up right now of the Epstein files. And we all know that Epstein himself said that Donald Trump was his best friend for over 10 years. And it is shameful, illegal and unconstitutional that the Department of Justice has released 1% of the files. 1% of the files. Where is the pressure to get Pam Bondi to release the files? Instead, you're focused in the committee's focus on whoever you perceive to be you, your enemies and the enemies of Donald Trump. Because let's be clear. We want to talk to President Bill Clinton. We want him to answer our questions. We also want Ghislaine Maxwell to answer our questions. We also want to understand why Pam Bondi refuses to release all the files. 1% of the files have released. Millions have been left no publications for weeks. That is a crime. And so this White House cover up continues every single day that the files are not released. And yet where are those calls, Mr. Comer? You're saying they're complying. That is both a lie and shameful.

B (15:40)

And here's what Democratic Congressmember Walkinshaw from Virginia had to say.

F (15:44)

And if we're truly serious about justice, we can't ignore one of Epstein's most well documented associates, President Donald J. Trump. We have documented communications, including a signed birthday note from Donald Trump containing explicit sexual references in referencing wonderful secrets, wonderful secrets between them. Emails from Epstein saying that Trump, quote, knew about the girls. Donald Trump acknowledging he knew Epstein was a, quote, creep and that Epstein recruited girls and women from Mar A Lago. Trump saying he wants to cover up the files because, quote, my friends will get hurt. If we're committed to transparency and justice, why is that off limits for this committee? Why is his name absent? Why no discussion of Attorney General Bondi's refusal to comply for months with this committee's subpoena? Why no contempt for Attorney General Bondi? What we're witnessing today is not oversight. It's not accountability. It's part of a cover up, a diversion, and it didn't start today. Despite clear legal requirements in a law that Donald Trump signed a subpoena that you signed, Mr. Chairman, and repeated public promises, Attorney General Bondi has failed to release the files. It's entirely within her control. And yet only 1% has been produced more than a month late. And even that sliver is so heavily redacted that it mocks the law. It mocks the law and it mocks this committee's subpoena. Let's be honest about the transparency that Attorney General Bondi has provided. This is DOJ Epstein data set number four. It's number four. Data set number four. This is part of the 1% that folks have been talking about this today. I'll close with this. Attorney General Bondi and the Trump administration missed their deadline. They're ignoring our subpoena. They've withheld 99% of the files, and they have obscured third, the little that they did release. It's not a coincidence. It's intentional. It's about protecting one man, Donald J. Trump, from accountability. Release the files, yield back.

B (18:29)

And here's what Democratic Congressmember Ted Lieu from California had to say. Play this clip.

D (18:34)

Responsible for helping to ensure the rule of law. Unfortunately, the chairman of this committee ignored a bipartisan congressional subpoena directed at him. His actions have made it harder for this committee and other congressional committees to get witnesses and testimony and damage the rule of law. Now, before I ask questions of Mr. Smith, I just want to make a simple observation. How scared are Republicans of talking about the Epstein files? They're so scared that they literally are calling Jack Smith, the distinguished federal prosecutor who secured multiple indictments against Donald Trump with multiple felony counts. Republicans would rather talk about the criminality of Donald Trump in stealing, trying to steal an election and trying to stop the peaceful transfer of power and the criminality of Donald Trump in stealing classified documents obstructing justice than about Donald Trump's associations with Jeffrey Epstein and his pedophilia ring. I demand this committee, this chairman and Republicans to call immediate hearing asking why the pharma justice is refusing to release 99% of the Epstein files and why the DOJ is violating law right now.

B (19:52)

And then Donald Trump sends his right wing sycophants like Scott Jennings this week to do CNN and to try to spread these lies. Hat tip to Lee McGowan who's on the Midas Touch network. I think she was channeling all of us right here. Let's play this clip. But they should follow the law.

E (20:10)

But let's not get our knickers in a twist here.

G (20:13)

Yeah, let's just get our knickers in a twist over child rape. Why are you talking like that? It's insane. Like it's insane. The Epstein files is a multinational multi generational child and woman sex trafficking rape. So your attitude right now, you're sort of like, well, shucks, Devil Begun is just horrifying to me. Every woman in the world that is watching this, why are you acting like you have no idea what's happening here? Scott, this is.

B (20:43)

He asked me a question about following the law. I said they should follow the law.

G (20:46)

Yeah. And they're not following the law. They're 30 days late on following law. And they didn't explain why they redacted the first things in the first place, which they were also supposed to do. I know you have a strong opinion about it. I have a strong opinion about it because it is.

B (20:57)

But I think they should. I think they should do it as.

G (20:59)

They are doing this, they are hiding it. It is not the behavior of innocent people. And everything that is in these files is it could bring an entire House down. And if it has to, it has to. If it brings down Democrats, bring them down. If it brings down Republicans, bring them down. If it brings down princes, world leaders, Hollywood people, bring them down. But what it feels like right now is that there's a giant cabal of people that do not have to listen to the law, do not have to oppose the law. And they were supposed to do something, then they didn't do something, and now they're trying to have a new law that says we don't even have to do what's really.

B (21:27)

And then on cnn, they did a good segment actually where they said how if Donald Trump is trying to cover up the Epstein files with Greenland, he's not doing a good job. Play this clip.

H (21:37)

There's been a suggestion among some that one of the things the President is trying to do by focusing on Greenland is maybe to distract from other things. With us now, CNN Chief Data Analyst Harry Entten. So how much are people focused on Greenland opposed to other things?

E (21:52)

Yeah.

I (21:52)

Okay, so this is the whole idea, John. The President, United States didn't like the focus on the Epstein files. We're going to change the subject and we're going to go over to Greenland. And from that perspective, it's worked.

B (22:02)

Look at this.

I (22:02)

Google searches versus December for the Epstein files down through the floor. Far fewer people are searching for the Epstein files, down 72%. Of course, you can't fall any lower than down being 100% versus for Greenland. Look at this. The highest on record. Up like a rocket. Almost up 1600%. My goodness gracious. So if the idea was to distract from the Epstein files and focus and focus the American people on something else, it has been a success by that metric.

H (22:29)

We don't know if that was the goal here, but if it was, if it was, if it was. Now, how is saying focus on Greenland opposed to the Epstein files in terms of focusing on an issue that's good for you?

I (22:40)

Yeah. Okay, so if this was the idea. Right. Well, it's a bad idea, politically speaking. Why do I say that? Because take a look here. Here. Trump's net approval rating on the Epstein files. Look at that. Just absolutely awful. 38 points below water. But any try to buy Greenland is somehow even more unpopular. Look at this. It's 40 points below water. There is barely an issue out there that's worse for Donald Trump than the Epstein files. But any attempts to buy Greenland or use military force on Greenland, which even polls worse than, this is one of them. It is arguably the most, most unpopular thing that Donald Trump can try to do is mess with Greenland.

H (23:20)

So Greenland is polling worse than the Epstein.
