I wonder what made them change their mind? And presumably they hid files that were worse for the administration than the rather shocking files we’ve already received, so just how bad is it?
This comes at a very bad time for Ghislaine. Unless Trump pardons her soon, she is spending the rest of her life in prison. From the released files it is clear that she was an equal partner in the abuse so there will be massive pushback against any sort of favorable treatment. And the more that is released, the worse it will be.
Which makes Ghislaine unpredictable and a threat against the rest of the conspirators. Which means she might have to be eliminated sooner rather than later. Which I’m sure Ghislaine realizes and will be even more desperate to get out. And she knows exactly what the international conspiracy is.
The next few weeks will be pretty epic. But I give Ghislaine 50:50 odds that she’s alive this time next year.
Or just maybe they are flooding things with random useless shit to muddle everything and stall for time. 1 million? Cmon. Everything they do is nefarious and corrupt.
US authorities have discovered more than a million more documents potentially related to the late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein that they plan to release in the coming days and weeks, officials say.
The FBI and federal prosecutors in New York informed the Department of Justice (DoJ) of the discovery.
"We have lawyers working around the clock to review and make the legally required redactions to protect victims, and we will release the documents as soon as possible," the DoJ said on Wednesday.
The department said it could take "a few more weeks" before all the files are released. The DoJ has been under scrutiny after not releasing all Epstein files by 19 December, the deadline mandated under a new law.
The agency said it would "continue to fully comply with federal law and President Trump's direction to release the files".
The statement did not specify how the FBI and the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York came across the additional material. Epstein had been facing charges of sex trafficking minors in the state when he died awaiting trial in a New York prison.
The news comes after the justice department released thousands of documents - some heavily redacted - related to their investigations into Epstein.
The department has been releasing the documents in batches and top officials have said hundreds of thousands of documents still are to be released.

Trump trips, a fake video and 10 possible co-conspirators: Takeaways from new Epstein files
The files were released after Congress passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act - signed into law by US President Donald Trump - that ordered the agency to share all the documents with the public while protecting victims' identities.
Many of the released documents, which include videos, photos, emails and investigative documents, have heavy redactions, including names of people the FBI appears to cite as possible co-conspirators in the Epstein case.
The justice department has faced criticism from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle over the amount of redactions, which the law permits only to protect victims' identities and active criminal investigations.
In a post on X after the discovery of the additional documents was announced, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, a congressional panel that has been investigating the Epstein saga, accused the White House of “illegally” withholding the files.
“Every day we see lies, incompetence, missed deadlines, and illegal redactions,” Representative Robert Garcia said in a statement.
The law passed by Congress and signed last month by Trump states that names and information that might be embarrassing or cause "reputational harm" are not allowed to be redacted.
It specifically asks the DoJ for internal communications and memos detailing who was investigated and decisions on whether "to charge, not charge, investigate, or decline to investigate Epstein or his associates".
Included in the documents are emails appearing to be exchanged between FBI personnel in 2019 that mention 10 possible "co-conspirators" of Epstein.
The emails said six of the group had been served with subpoenas. This included three in Florida, one in Boston, one in New York City, and one in Connecticut.
Possible co-conspirators in Epstein's crimes are a major focus for his victims, and for several lawmakers who have demanded more transparency from the justice department.
Previous releases of Epstein documents have included revelations that reverberated across the Atlantic.
Andrew and Epstein is the story that will not go away
Andrew stripped of 'prince' title and will move out of Royal Lodge
Peter Mandelson: Rise and fall of Labour's political fixer
Peter Mandelson was sacked as the UK's ambassador to the US after details emerged about his friendship with the convicted paedophile, and that he told Epstein "I think the world of you", the day before Epstein began his sentence for soliciting prostitution from a minor in June 2008.
Lord Mandelson said in a letter to staff that "I deeply regret" the circumstances of his departure from the British embassy in Washington DC. He said being ambassador had been "the privilege of my life" and he continued "to feel utterly awful about my association with Epstein twenty years ago and the plight of his victims".
In October, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor lost his prince title and was asked to leave his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge, following prolonged scrutiny over his links to Epstein.
In the latest release of files on Tuesday, a 2001 email sent by a person identified as "A" from "Balmoral" to Epstein's accomplice and close associate Ghislaine Maxwell - who was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2022 for sex trafficking of minors and other offences- asks: "Have you found me some new inappropriate friends?"
The BBC has contacted Andrew's team for a response. He has repeatedly denied wrongdoing, and said he did not "see, witness or suspect any behaviour of the sort that subsequently led to his [Epstein's] arrest and conviction".
Hmmm. Either it is new info, or a bunch of old, already released documents to bloat the real files, creating more time for the sickos to hide or get away or win a war.
They did the same thing in court. Just throwing it out there. I hope I am wrong.
Its not discovered.
Its we hid these because we didn't think we would have to comply with the law so we lied to congress that there was NO additional files.
Lets say we FOUND these so that technically we did not lie because we just came across this NEW stuff.
Also we had them the whole time and these are the main real files we wanted to scrub and needed more time.
I wonder what made them change their mind? And presumably they hid files that were worse for the administration than the rather shocking files we’ve already received, so just how bad is it?
Bad.
Like multi national crime ring led by government officials across multiple countries bad.
But thats the type of shit that will never come to light without serious forcing or leaks. No matter what the law says to do.
This comes at a very bad time for Ghislaine. Unless Trump pardons her soon, she is spending the rest of her life in prison.
