Mark Epstein, brother of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, alleged in an interview with NewsNation that the Epstein files are being edited to remove Republican names.
I don’t understand this line of thinking. The Epstein files are the product of criminal investigations. The DOJ has the files and so anyone who has seen them thus far would be authorized to access them by the DOJ (primarily FBI agents and DOJ lawyers). There isn’t any scenario where people like that would be obligated to publicly report incriminating information in the Epstein files. That’s exactly why the DOJ created the Epstein files, to gather incriminating information that can potentially be used in court by Federal prosecutors. If you are under the impression that Democratic politicians have access to the Epstein files, that is not correct.
No. They have access to a variety of things (e.g. Epstein’s estate provided them with a bunch of his emails) but they just voted to force the DOJ to release the Epstein files, it has not happened yet.

I was under that impression, yes, weren’t they given access some time ago? Seems like I was wrong, thanks for the info!
