The Department of Justice is set to make a significant disclosure today, as Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has revealed that over three million files related to Jeffrey Epstein will be released.

During a press briefing, Blanche detailed that the release will encompass more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. Importantly, all images of women, except those featuring Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell, will be redacted to protect their identities.

This new batch of files is anticipated to unveil previously undisclosed materials from the investigation into Epstein. He was found dead in a New York jail cell in 2019, awaiting trial on charges of trafficking minors for sex.

Earlier document releases have exposed Epstein’s connections with prominent figures worldwide, including Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and Bill Gates.

In a recent exclusive report by the Daily Mail, an email surfaced in which Epstein made a startling claim that Gates contracted a sexually transmitted infection from “Russian girls.”

Epstein criticized Gates in a July 2013 email for ending their friendship, stating, “To add insult to the injury, you then implore me to delete the emails regarding your STD, your request that I provide you antibiotics to secretly give to Melinda, and the description of your penis.”

Only one person – Epstein’s former girlfriend Maxwell – has ever been charged in connection with his crimes and the names of the alleged ‘co-conspirators’ are redacted from the emails.

Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence for recruiting underage girls for Epstein, whose death was ruled a suicide.

Major documents which have not been released yet include a draft 60-count federal indictment of Epstein that was inexplicably quashed, and an 82-page prosecution memo from 2007.

Trump, a one-time close friend of Epstein, and Clinton both figure prominently in the records published so far but neither has been accused by officials of any wrongdoing.

A Republican-led House panel has voted to launch contempt of Congress proceedings against Bill and Hillary Clinton over their refusal to testify before its probe into Epstein.

Trump, 79, fought for months to prevent release of the vast trove of documents about Epstein.

But a rebellion inside his Republican Party forced him to sign off on a law mandating release of all the documents.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA) called for all of the documents held by the Justice Department to be released by December 19.

The department missed that deadline. Blanche has blamed the delay on the need to painstakingly redact the identities of Epstein’s more than 1,000 victims from the files.

The sweeping redactions across many of the documents – combined with tight control over the release by the Trump administration – have stoked skepticism that conspiracy theories of a high-level cover-up will be silenced.

As soon as the president’s name began surfacing in the released files, the Justice Department issued a statement saying that some documents ‘contain untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Trump.’

But the documents already released confirm that Trump was once close to Epstein.

They moved in the same social circles in New York and Florida and documents confirm that Trump flew multiple times on Epstein’s private jet.

A January 2020 note from New York federal prosecutors who were investigating Maxwell had Trump making eight trips on Epstein’s plane between 1993 and 1996.

Trump has given varying accounts of why he eventually fell out with Epstein. He has criticized the file dumps, expressing concern that people who ‘innocently met’ Epstein over the years risked having their reputations smeared.

A spokesman for Clinton has urged the Justice Department to release all materials in the files related to the former president, saying he had nothing to hide.

‘Someone or something is being protected. We do not know whom, what or why. But we do know this: We need no such protection,’ Angel Urena said.
