It's time to blow the door open on all things Epstein because Todd Blanche doesn't want the Epstein files coming out because he's in them. The current Attorney General of the United States of America is in the Epstein files in redacted Epstein files. He doesn't want to talk about it, so I will. It comes as we're learning the truth about Donald Trump's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The truth that the President of the United States desperately wants to keep private. See, two stories broke this weekend that on the surface may look unrelated. One is about a single redacted email. The other is about the Senate confirmation vote that just happened early Saturday morning. But put to put them together and you get a much clearer picture of where the Epstein investigation actually stands right now and who is being left behind in it. Who is being left behind in it? It's the survivors. And while I spent the past year plus not just speaking with survivors and amplifying their stories, but reviewing hundreds, hundreds of thousands of Epstein files. And while there have been some that are not getting enough attention, and maybe we now know why. Because there are Epstein files with Todd Blanche's name in them. Oh, you may not have known this because they weren't found until recently and why I found them. Here's the first one. Here's a communication between Todd Blanche, John Peter Cronin and several other people whose names are completely redacted. And if you look underneath July 12, 2019, at the bottom email, they talk about Epstein's criminal case. Quote, according to the docket, we asked for a 24 hour extension because Epstein delayed filing his financial disclosure. Judge Berman denied the request, saying it shouldn't take us long to read it was. What I really understand that to mean is I have already made my decision and I don't care what the government says because I've got this. By the way, poor tactic. Pushing the private guards, knowing and even acknowledging Judge Berman's thoughts about it. It is a way to piss a judge off while you really asking him for what looks in context like fairly extraordinary relief. I wonder if that was client driven. Here's the thing. Todd Blanche, Todd Wallace. Blanche Wallace is Todd Blanche. The Attorney General's middle name, Todd Blanche is on this email. His name is not redacted. Who are the other people redacted? Are they lawyers for the government prosecuting Epstein? Why is Todd Blanche, who at the time was in private practice, talking to lawyers in the federal government who are potentially prosecuting Epstein? Why? On this one you have Sean Buckley from Cobra, Kim John Cronin and Todd Blanche. Nothing stops her. Related to a link concerning Epstein Associates. Why are there redactions? Who is redacted? And why is the Attorney General of the United States not unredacting this information? Now, I'm not saying there's something nefarious. I'm not saying that Todd Blanche himself was connected to Jeffrey Epstein in any way. He was a private practice lawyer at Cadwallader, as you can see, based on his email. Right. But he was communicating with folks who seemingly were in the know about all things Epstein, who were seemingly in the know, as you can see here, about what Epstein's criminal case was happening, about what was happening there, and yet this is redacted. There is nothing in the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Let me repeat, there is absolutely nothing in the Epstein Files Transparency act that would allow for the redaction of these other names. Unless they're survivors. Right? Or you're protecting law enforcement. But throughout the Epstein files, you have critical names, unredacted names of Assistant United States attorneys, names of other DOJ officials. So you can, on one hand, claim you're protecting law enforcement, and then on the other hand, redact the names of said law enforcement. Or it might not be law enforcement at all. It may not be law enforcement at all. We don't know, because the Attorney General of the United States is hiding it. But that's not all. Back in 2009, Jeffrey Epstein sent an email with the subject line simply reading Trump. Here's that email. The recipient was listed as Gmax, a name that is tied to Ghislaine Maxwell. That is Ghislaine Maxwell. She's serving 20 years for sex trafficking behind bars. When this email became public as part of the broader Epstein document release, almost the entire body of the message was blacked out. Just the subject line, the sender and the recipient were visible. Everything else redacted. But here's the part that most people don't know. The Justice Department has been allowing members of Congress to go view unredacted versions of these files in person at DOJ headquarters. They can't take copies out with them, but they can read the documents and take notes. And Representative Madeline Dean of Pennsylvania did exactly that. She spent hours at DOJ headquarters this past week with the pen and paper, specifically trying to see what was behind this black box on this Trump email. And what she found, according to her own account to journalist Tara Palmieri, directly contradicts something Donald Trump has publicly repeated. Trump has long claimed that he threw Epstein out of Mar A Lago. It's a line he's used for years to distance himself from Epstein, to frame their relationship as something he ended himself once he realized who Epstein was. But according to Dean's notes from the unredacted email, that. That's not what it says. Quote, reading from our notes, Jeffrey Epstein was never expelled from Mar? A Lago. No, he was not a member. May have been a guess he was never asked to leave. And then, allegedly quoting Trump himself. I've been on a lot of planes. May have been on his plane. No young girls on plane. If Dean's account is accurate, that is a direct contradiction of the story Trump has told publicly for years, not through some anonymous source, but through Epstein's own words written to Glenn Maxwell about the President. Now, we should be clear about the scale of what we're dealing with here. This is a single email out of roughly 3 million. 3 million pages that have been released. The Justice Department has pushed back on some of the material, saying certain documents contain, quote, untrue and sensationalist claims. Not every mention is going to be a smoking gun. But this email in particular, given the subject line and direct contradiction of Trump's own public claims, is going to get a lot of attention. Now, to understand why an email like this even exists in the first place, lawmakers, you have to go back to November of 2025, when Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency act into law. But since then, the releases have just stopped, and survivors have not received justice or accountability. Liz Stein is one of the most visible Epstein survivors, advocating for accountability. She spent the last year doing something most people would find almost unbearable. Relitigating one of the worst experiences of her life over and over in interviews and meetings in the hope that it would lead to somewhere. This past week, that fight collided with the confirmation of Todd Blanche as the new Attorney General. Survivors like Stein pushed hard against that nomination. Their core complaint? Blanche had shown no urgency about expanding the Epstein investigation, and for a long time, he wouldn't even meet with them directly. So where does that lead things? Well, we now have a sitting member of Congress publicly describing the contents of a redacted email that appears to contradict the President's own account of his relationship with Epstein. We have a new Attorney General whose survivors say offered them no real engagement, confirmed by a Senate vote that saw two Republicans break ranks over this issue, Specifically an Attorney General whose name is in the Epstein files and files he continues to keep redacted and behind bars. And we have a group of survivors who, by every account, are not going to stop pushing, no matter how exhausting that fight has become. This story is in close to over. I'll keep following it.

And while very powerful people want us to stop talking about Epstein. But I promise you, I promise you, I will never, ever, ever stop until the over a thousand survivors get justice and accountability. See you soon.
