Don't expect a Trump DoJ to just release the whole trove

Yeah Michael Wolff was just saying Trump is obsessed with this idea he'd keep telling him that "Nixon should have burned the tapes. If I were him, I'd have burned the tapes." So I think almost for sure the DOJ and maybe FBI held material that's visibly incriminating has been deleted or tampered with. But you also have to remember how incompetent these people are and how much material there is. I think a lot of damning stuff will still come out. But we'll see.

He might have burnt the tapes back then, but nowadays there are USB sticks with info on them, its like the cassette tapes of the 60-70-80-90s.
Not to mention the Internerd, blogs, Facebook, X, etc.

If it's like the last release, it's going to get released as a pdf of screenshots and scans.
What might happen is if they are something like emails or documents other people had access to, then they'll be able to contradict pages with their version. I think for that reason it's more likely things get deleted or redacted than changed outright. But you know Trump got convicted for changing his business records outright, and it was demonstrated in court clear as day, so it's in the cards.

I think that whatever becomes public will have had many hands on it and we will never know whether the records are complete and accurate. Once the perps pass on or lose their positions of power & influence, we may see a lot more people talking about their experiences. But right now, Trump is abusing the federal government for retaliation against personal enemies, and that probably keeps some people quiet.

According to Trump's Propaganda Minister, (
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/leavitt-trump-piggy-reporter-briefing-b2869425.html) reporters should be grateful when the Clown calls them "piggy".
Quote:
“Look, the president is very frank, and honest with everyone in this room,” Leavitt said. “He gets frustrated with reporters when you lie about him, when you spread fake news about him and his administration. But he is also the most transparent president in history.
“I think the president being frank and open and honest to your faces rather than hiding behind your backs is a lot more respectful than what you saw in the last administration,” she added.
I guess it's better than murdering fishermen.

Of course he lost it and started to demand that the reporter be quiet. The question was about Epstein.

The fact that there was a unanimous vote in the Senate & unanimous vote but one in the House to release the Epstein files is a clear sign that he's lost the support of Congress and they won't protect him as more revelations come out. So he's falling apart, even aside from the dementia rage.

Time to blame Canada and invade.

Epstein is pretty "Boooring" according to Trump

Epstein saga reveals Republican rifts - and the power of Trump's base
After Congress voted to force the justice department to release its files on Jeffrey Epstein, the legislation will now move to President Donald Trump's desk.
And if Trump does sign it into law as expected, it will mark the final action in what has been a remarkable and abrupt change in his position.
For months, Trump was dismissive of calls to release the government's full trove of documents about the late financier and convicted sex offender. He described the case in July as "pretty boring stuff".
