Related: “I have been asked by Jeffrey Epstein …”
This article uses Jeffrey Epstein’s emails (which were recently released by the U.S. House Oversight Committee) to follow up on a Signpost article from March 2020 about Epstein. These emails are not part of the Epstein files, which are required by Epstein Files Transparency Act to be released by the DOJ within 30 days of passage of the act, i.e. by around December 19.
To show that this whitewashing is an international problem I would like to refer to the page of our “beloved” Chancellor Friedrich Merz. For years the running gag (and fact) about him was that his German article starts with “Friedrich Merz is a lobbyist and politician”. In this order. Lobbyist first, politician second. Since he’s been elected the first mention of him working as a lobbyist has been relegated to the end of the second paragraph.
Have they released them or not?
