I'm struggling to reconcile this with the previous reason given for not releasing the files, that they were a national security risk. So, releasing no evidence would have been a risk to national security after Epstein was dead?

Trump probably collected millions in extortion money from everybody on that list

The government lies.

It doesn't matter when or where you read this, it's always true.

Yes and no. It depends on the part of the government in question.

Take the Government Accountability Office. I pretty much trust anything they put out. The same goes for NASA, and until this year, NOAA.

OSHA also tends to get a pass.

Homeland Security or the FBI? My sodium intake becomes dangerously high.

And that's even before Trump returned to power.

Were they a risk because they were dirt on politicians? We could have resolved that by getting rid of those politicians.
