We keep track of the release of the files, but also to explore what’s already available, and why – with enough exposure – this could bring the man down, and who knows even his regime or the empire.

Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) flagged an extraordinarily explosive allegation against President Donald Trump Thursday night, one uncovered in the Justice Department’s release of files on Jeffrey Epstein, and demanded the the DOJ take immediate action in interviewing witnesses.

“Dear [Attorney General Pam Bondi]: Since you creepily spied on the unredacted Epstein files I read, you know I read this one,” Lieu wrote Thursday in a social media post on X, referencing reports that Bondi and her agency appeared to be tracking lawmakers’ searches in its Epstein files database.

“Witness calls FBI’s [National Threat Operations Center] and reports girl, later found dead, told him Trump and Epstein raped her. DOJ NEVER INTERVIEWS WITNESS. When will DOJ interview this witness?”

The article hyperlinks to an article from the same outlet from december 26 last year. Which shows enough information that the tip was highly likely authentic and also brings a big question mark as to why there is no record of an investigation.

I feel like, if the mainstream news was functioning properly, they would've kept pushing this story, ala "Where is the fucking investigation?"

And it wouldn't take ~ one and a half months for this to arrive, via a lawmaker.

[...] local newspaper uncovered death records consistent with details described in the tip.

The allegations made against Trump and Epstein are unverified, and no public record exists that law enforcement investigated or confirmed their authenticity.

Also, the DOJ lies from back then:

“To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already,” reads a statement Tuesday from the DOJ.
