"On Friday afternoon, as the 11:59 pm deadline of the Epstein Files Transparency Act approached, the Department of Justice posted a slew of documents to its website, with former President Bill Clinton and Michael Jackson among those heavily featured alongside convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. According to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in a Friday appearance on Fox & Friends, the DOJ planned to release several hundred thousand documents today and then more documents over the next couple of weeks."
"While the files are publicly accessible on the DOJ website, MS NOW reported that search functions on the site seem to be faulty. Upon accessing the drop shortly after it went live, Mediaite saw a message saying the site was currently experiencing extremely high volume of search requests at this time. Nonetheless, the internet has exploded with pictures from the files."
"Another photo, posted by Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson, shows Clinton with his arm around Jackson, alongside an unknown woman and what appear to be three redacted faces. The Deputy Press Secretary also posted a photo Friday afternoon showing Clinton swimming with convicted Epstein co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence in the US for sex trafficking and conspiracy charges, and one redacted woman."
