DOJ Files Motion to Unseal Grand Jury Testimonies in Epstein Case

The Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a motion to have grand jury testimonies relating to convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein unsealed, according to multiple reports.

In a motion filed in the United States District Court – Southern District of New York, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche called for the court “to release grand jury transcripts associated with” the indictment referring to Epstein.

“At the direction of the Attorney General, the Department of Justice hereby moves the Court to release grand jury transcripts associated with the above referenced indictment,” the court document says.

In another motion filed in the U.S. District Court – Southern District of New York, Blanche also called for the court to release grand jury transcripts relating to an indictment regarding Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

The motions added:

On July 6, 2025, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation issued a memorandum describing an exhaustive review undertaken of investigative holdings relating to Jeffrey Epstein (the “Memorandum”). The Memorandum detailed the steps taken by the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation to determine whether evidence existed that could predicate an investigation into uncharged third parties. As the Memorandum concluded, no such evidence was uncovered during the review.

Since July 6, 2025, there has been extensive public interest in the basis for the Memorandum’s conclusions. While the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation continue to adhere to the conclusions reached in the Memorandum, transparency to the American public is of the utmost importance to this Administration. Given the public interest in the investigative work conducted by the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation into Epstein, the Department of Justice moves the Court to unseal the underlying grand jury transcripts in United States v. Epstein, subject to appropriate redactions of victim-related and other personal identifying information. The Department will work with the United States Attorney’s Office for Southern District of New York to make appropriate redactions of victim-related information and other personal identifying information prior to releasing the transcripts. Transparency in this process will not be at the expense of our obligation under the law to protect victims.

As Breitbart News reported, the memo from the DOJ and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) revealed that there was no evidence Epstein had a client list and that an investigation had found Epstein committed suicide. The memo also found there was “no credible evidence” that Epstein had blackmailed prominent people.

Governmental Self-Preservation: Why We’ll Never See The Real Epstein List

If there’s one characteristic that defines Donald Trump it’s his habit of switching his positions on a dime – Leaving many a critic looking rather foolish when they establish an argument against him today, only to discover he mostly agrees with them tomorrow. I’ve learned it’s best to wait a little while before commenting on the man’s policy decisions and allow time for the debate to ferment. After months of deflection and now retraction, the Jeffery Epstein controversy has turned especially ripe.

To understand the chaos surrounding the Epstein issue we have to first recognize that it’s the product of an inherent division within the MAGA movement that needs to be addressed. The campaign to support Trump is built on two groups that intersect but don’t always agree:

1) Average Republicans (and some moderates) who are most concerned with defeating the agenda of leftists and keeping woke activists out of government power.

2) Hardcore conservatives and libertarians from the “conspiracy” end of the movement who are most concerned with defeating the globalist cabal.

I find myself in rooted in both camps and I see both as essential, though it’s clear to me that the goals of the second group are ultimately more important.

To be clear, leftist saboteurs are a legitimate enemy that has been employed as a weapon against the rest of the populace. I’m growing especially tired of the laziness of libertarians who cry “False left/right paradigm!” while forgetting the living hell we all experienced under the reign of Joe Biden and Democrats. The differences between conservatives and leftists cannot be denied.

The country has at least been tolerable under Trump – No more “transing” or grooming of children in schools. No more pride month. No more pandering to DEI. No more open borders. No more federal accusations of conservatives being “terrorists” and a “danger to democracy”. If you can’t at least give some credit for these changes then you’re not a serious person and I have no time for you.

That said, in the end the threat of the political left pales in comparison to the threat presented by the globalists. These are people with a luciferian ideology of self worship and moral relativism and they are in positions of immense power (at least in financial terms). Though their political reputation in the US is faltering, they still have near total control of the narratives in Europe, Australia and Canada, not to mention invasive financial influence throughout most of the world.

Look at it this way: Have you ever heard of a globalist being punished or arrested for their attempts to manipulate and corrupt the social and governmental institutions of any given nation? How many globalist NGOs have been shut down in recent memory? Isn’t the US still pouring tax dollars into globalist institutions like the IMF, BIS (through the Federal Reserve), World Bank, etc.?

Political factions may battle for the minds of the masses and many times these fights are very real, but the globalists always remain in the background watching and waiting for another chance to push civilization further towards their dystopian vision. They don’t care what happens politically as long as their money and influence remain intact. No one ever aims their cannons at the whispering men lurking behind the curtain.

For conservative patriots, dealing with the evils of the political left serves the immediate purpose of treating symptoms, but not the disease. Globalists are a parasitic organism that feeds on humanity, spawning more and more decline and despair as they grow. They must be eliminated from the equation if our future is to ever improve.

Trump has openly admonished the globalists on many occasions and he ran his 2016 and 2024 campaigns on reversing the economic damage they have done. Defeating globalism was a big part of his election platform, it’s undeniable. The problem is, he has consistently backed away from any direct prosecution or punishment of said devils.

Nancy Pelosi: Epstein Story Is a ‘Distraction’

Thursday on MSNBC’s “Chris Jansing Reports,” Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump’s involvement in the Jeffrey Epstein story was just a “distraction.”

Jansing said, “Is there’s anything the president can do now to get his supporters to move off of the Epstein issue?”

Pelosi said, “This is a distraction. We have major issues right here with things we’re voting on today in the Congress, again, in terms of the rescission that the president and the Senate have sent back over us to cut all of these resources out of helping poor people throughout the world, to be America play its leadership role in soft power to keep us safe, and to keep us healthy — viruses know no boundary. And instead we’re talking about him-, about this thing and his own base has its own views of what the president should do. I’ll leave it up to them to talk it out. But again, whether it’s Jeffrey Epstein or Alcatraz, it’s all off the subject of what they’re doing with this budget that is harmful to the kitchen table, meeting the kitchen-table needs of the American people.”

Jansing said, “I want to make sure I understand what you mean when you say distraction. Do you think that Pam Bondi going to Alcatraz is meant potentially as a distraction from Epstein, which has not gone over well at all with the president’s base?”

Pelosi said, “No, I think they’re both distractions.”

Jamie Raskin Flails After Host Corners Him on Why Dems Didn’t Care About the Epstein Files Until Now

MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough, in a moment of honest journalism, pressed Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland on his party’s sudden push to release the Jeffrey Epstein files, when his coalition had the power to do so as recently as January.

Raskin, who sits on the House Judiciary Committee, and his Democrat colleagues want members of President Donald Trump’s Justice Department to testify about the matter, Politico reported Tuesday.

Further, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California offered an amendment to GOP-backed legislation that received a vote on Monday night which would have required the Justice Department to release the files within 30 days. The amendment was voted down.

Scarborough asked Raskin on Thursday morning, “But, congressman, you could’ve gotten that from [2021] to [2025] when Democrats controlled the DOJ. It was a crisis then. It’s a crisis now. Why didn’t Democrats call for it from ’21 to ’25?”

Karoline Leavitt Responds to Epstein Firestorm—But Sidesteps the One Question That Matters Most

Karoline Leavitt was just flooded with questions about the so-called Epstein “HOAX.”

Reporters didn’t go easy on her.

One asked why the DOJ is still holding the files instead of releasing a redacted version.

Her responses today only raised more eyebrows.

Ask Americans how they feel about the handling of the Epstein files, and you’ll hear the same answer from both sides of the aisle: total frustration.

According to a recent poll, just 3% of Americans say they’re satisfied with how the Trump administration has handled it.

Meanwhile, half the country is dissatisfied and believes the administration hasn’t been transparent.

Americans are furious because on February 21st, Pam Bondi told the world the Epstein client list was “sitting on [her] desk right now to review,” explaining it was part of a directive ordered by President Trump.

But on July 7, the Trump Justice Department concluded via internal memo that Epstein actually had no client list, didn’t blackmail anyone, and definitely killed himself.

This walking back of earlier claims has unleashed a frenzy.

HUGE: Trump Orders Release of Sealed Epstein Grand Jury Testimony

In a stunning move Thursday, President Donald Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to release sealed grand jury testimony related to Jeffrey Epstein—a move that completely blows up the narrative that Democrats have been pushing for weeks now.

The directive comes amid growing bipartisan pressure over the administration’s handling of the Epstein investigation, with critics demanding transparency and accountability—something that was in short supply under the Biden administration.

Trump is making good on his promise to peel back the curtain on what he’s repeatedly called a massive cover-up to protect the powerful. 

“Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval,” Trump posted to Truth Social. “This SCAM, perpetuated by the Democrats, should end, right now!”

The release of grand jury records could mark a turning point in the long-stalled Epstein saga—and deliver a political earthquake that many in the establishment hoped would never come.

Many Trump supporters have demanded full transparency after the FBI and Justice Department released what they claimed was the final word on Jeffrey Epstein—insisting that there’s no client list and that Epstein’s 2019 jailhouse death was a simple suicide. Unsurprisingly, the so-called “final statement” only fueled more skepticism, especially among conservatives who have long suspected a cover-up to protect politically connected elites—many of them Democrats—and Democrats pounced on the GOP infighting.

Epstein moved in powerful circles that included Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and a host of other celebrities and billionaires. But while the media fixates on Trump, they continue to downplay or outright ignore Epstein’s well-documented ties to Clinton and other high-profile Democrats. Meanwhile, Ghislaine Maxwell sits in prison, convicted of trafficking minors to—well, no one, according to the official narrative.

Karoline Leavitt Says President Trump “Would Not Recommend a Special Prosecutor in the Epstein Case”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Tuesday denied reports that President Trump was considering appointing a special prosecutor in the Epstein case. 

This follows a report by John Solomon that President Trump was “on board” with a Special Prosecutor for the Epstein Case after Pam Bondi’s back-and-forth, claiming that she has the files to release, and then not releasing them.

President Trump, however, has defended Bondi repeatedly, even calling Republicans “stupid” and “foolish” for wanting the Epstein files so badly.

“I was surprised, but they got duped,” he said of Republicans who aren’t satisfied with Bondi’s nothingburger of a release and claims that Epstein killed himself.

Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are introducing legislation to release all of the files.

Karoline Leavitt was further asked about President Trump’s reaction to House Speaker Mike Johnson calling for additional Epstein files to be released, but she declined to comment.

“I won’t discuss the President’s private conversations with the Speaker of the House,” Leavitt said.

“the President has said, if the attorney general and the Department of Justice and the FBI have any more credible evidence in regards to Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes, they should put that forward.”

“The Network” in the Worlds of the Elites

Is there something about liberal elite networks, you should understand?

Half the country is up in arms about President Donald Trump’s inexplicable decision to mock his base, because many are appalled that Attorney General Pam Bondi seems to be orchestrating a coverup of a serial rapist of children. Bondi’s Justice Department released a memo last week: “The two-page document said the department found no evidence of an Epstein client list and that no additional files from the investigation would be made public.”

President Trump’s response to all this has been startling: He stated that “[O]nly really bad people […] want to keep something like this going.” According to NBC, he also called MAGA supporters of his who are upset at AG Bondi, “weaklings” who “bought into this bull—-t” —.

President Trump’s supporters, including Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and even Alex Jones, are furious, and calling for full release of the “Epstein files.” Polls show harm to his support: numbers that could threaten Republicans in the midterms.

Democrats are racing to capitalize on the fissures opening among Republicans, as Politico reports. President Trump’s appeal to his base is that he is “one of us”, and that he promises transparency. A situation that casts him as a rich guy with muddy motivations protecting another late rich guy’s friends — the dead man, the worst of the worst — could lose him the base, and cause MAHA voters – millions of them moms and dads of girls like the ones that Epstein abused — to flee.

Conservatives are baffled. My husband, a truly objective man (as well as an ardent President Trump supporter who also worked for numerous intelligence agencies for almost three decades), is puzzled, to the point of wondering if the President is acting uncharacteristically in response to some serious unnamed threat (or threats), perceived or actual.

Former VP Mike Pence: “The Time Has Come” to Release All The Epstein Files

Former Vice President Mike Pence has called for the Trump administration to release all of the Epstein files.

Pence made the statement during an interview with CBS News correspondent Major Garrett, when he was asked his thoughts on the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files.

Pence stated, “I think the time has come for the administration to release all of the files regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s investigation and prosecution.”

He added, “It’s important that we protect the names of the victims. They should be excluded from any disclosure.”

“Anyone who participated or was associated with this despicable man ought to be held up to public scrutiny,” concluded Pence.

Former Israeli Intel Official Claims Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell Worked for Israel

Since the apparent death by suicide of Jeffrey Epstein in a Manhattan prison, much has come to light about his depraved activities and methods used to sexually abuse underage girls and entrap the rich and powerful for the purposes of blackmail. Epstein’s ties to intelligence, described in-depth in a recent MintPress investigative series, have continued to receive minimal mainstream media coverage, which has essentially moved on from the Epstein scandal despite the fact that his many co-conspirators remain on the loose.

For those who have examined Epstein’s ties to intelligence, there are clear links to both U.S. intelligence and Israeli intelligence, leaving it somewhat open to debate as to which country’s intelligence apparatus was closest to Epstein and most involved in his blackmail/sex-trafficking activities. A recent interview given by a former high-ranking official in Israeli military intelligence has claimed that Epstein’s sexual blackmail enterprise was an Israel intelligence operation run for the purpose of entrapping powerful individuals and politicians in the United States and abroad.

In an interview with Zev Shalev, former CBS News executive producer and award-winning investigative journalist for Narativ, the former senior executive for Israel’s Directorate of Military Intelligence, Ari Ben-Menashe, claimed not only to have met Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, back in the 1980s, but that both Epstein and Maxwell were already working with Israeli intelligence during that time period.
