Overview
- Rogan rejected past “hoax” claims about the files and questioned why some non-victim names remain concealed, calling the approach “not good for this administration.”
- The DOJ on January 30 released more than three million records under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, including roughly 180,000 images and 2,000 videos.
- Lawmakers and Justice Department officials say less than 1% of the records are publicly accessible, and the department missed the law’s 30‑day release deadline.
- Under pressure from Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna, the DOJ unredacted at least six names, including Emirati executive Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.
- Members of Congress are reviewing fully unredacted files via secure DOJ terminals, and the materials include years of Epstein–bin Sulayem correspondence—such as an email in which Epstein wrote he “loved the torture video”—while noting bin Sulayem has not been charged.
