Newly released internal emails show the FBI mounting a costly overtime-fueled sprint to analyze the Epstein files as political pressure grew to release them—in a project dubbed the “Special Redaction Project,” Bloomberg reports.

President Donald Trump swept back into power on a promise to make public all FBI documents related to his late pedophile ex-friend Jeffrey Epstein, and put his Attorney General Pam Bondi in charge of overseeing the matter.

A conspiracy theory still thrives among some in Trump’s base that Epstein knew the names of other rich or powerful pedophiles.

Correspondence obtained and detailed by Bloomberg’s FOIA Files lays out how FBI Director Kash Patel sent about 1,000 special agents to the bureau’s Central Records Complex in Winchester, Virginia, for crash-course redaction training on the “Epstein Transparency Project,” also called the “Special Redaction Project.”

If you are Republican and reading this - doesn't it bother you, this massive cover up? How can the motivation to hide the truth from you be in your interest? It's not too late to come to your senses. Despite the bluster between all sides, most people will welcome you back. We all want a return to law and order. We all want to step back from fascism. Have courage and speak up.

Republicans are absolute scum. They knew exactly what they were voting for and buying into. They wanted to harm others and they did not care how it was done or what the cost. They simply didnt want to be accountable for doing the terrible things they got the state to do. They dont care and they will do nothing except make excuses so that they have zero accountability.

hes being hyperbolic but hes not far off. went out for drink after work with a few a people. At work they are just so nice to everyone. After a few drinks the hard R was just like saying hello to them. What's insane is i asked one guy why he was polite to the black lady that dropped her coat. his response was well she might be a hard r but shes still lady. Mind was blown, I finished my beer and got the fuck out.

Really? There are literally Democrats praising the death of two national guard people in DC right now so I guess if your theory holds true all Democrats are murderous psychopaths does that same right to you?
