"Democrats on the House oversight committee have released a new batch of photos from the estate of the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, as the deadline for the justice department to release its files related to Epstein looms. The images, released on Thursday, are undated and lack captions or context. Among them are photographs of what appear to be lines from Vladimir Nabokov's novel Lolita written on different parts of a woman's body."
"Over the summer, the Trump administration drew backlash when the justice department said it would not release any additional Epstein files - despite earlier promises from Trump and his allies on the campaign trail. Trump had, for months, opposed the congressional bill requiring the release of the DoJ's Epstein files, but reversed course when it became evident that it had enough bipartisan support to pass. He signed the bill into law on 19 November."
A new set of undated, uncaptioned photographs from Jeffrey Epstein's estate was released by House Democrats. Several images show lines from Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita written on different parts of a woman's body, including passages on a chest, foot, neck and spine. The release aims to increase pressure on the Department of Justice as a statutory deadline under the Epstein Files Transparency Act approaches. The Justice Department previously resisted releasing additional Epstein files, and President Trump initially opposed the bill before signing it into law on 19 November after it gained bipartisan support.
