After months of political wrangling, the US Justice Department released documents from its investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, which could have political repercussions. The report stated that the Justice Department is using a variety of tactics to try to conceal the US president’s connection to the sex offender, referring to Epstein. It explained that the Justice Department’s “partial release” of the Epstein files reflects a variety of tactics used to try to “conceal” and “obfuscate” Trump’s relationship with Epstein. “Hundreds of thousands were released today, and then in the coming weeks, I expect hundreds of thousands more.
