“But the "sloppiness" of the DOJ in redacting and releasing those files amounts to "criminal negligence" on behalf of Attorney General Pam Bondi, says Massie. ... Massie grilled Bondi in a Congressional hearing today ... It took an act of Congress to force the executive branch to publish a publicly searchable database of the Epstein files, in contrast to the theatrics of Bondi's release of binders filled with highly selective Epstein-related disclosures to hand-picked influencers at the beginning of President Donald Trump's second term.”
