Bill Clinton demands ALL Epstein files be released by DOJ as victims claim THOUSANDS more pictures still being held from public

Bill Clinton demanded that Trump’s Justice Department release the rest of the Epstein files after he was featured in multiple photos in the latest episode.

‘Someone or something is being protected,’ the former president said in a statement through his spokesman. ‘We don’t need such protection.’

Clinton called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to “immediately release any remaining materials that reference, mention, or contain the photograph of Bill Clinton.”

He accused the Department of Justice of engaging in ‘selective releases that imply wrongdoing against individuals who have been cleared repeatedly over the years by the same Department of Justice.’

Clinton also claimed that by refusing to release the files, the Justice Department would be confirming suspicions that its actions were for “insinuation” rather than transparency.

The revelation came as a group of 19 of Epstein’s alleged victims and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell accused the government of missteps in releasing some of the files.

They accused the Justice Department of violating the Epstein Files Transparency Act by ‘withholding vast amounts of documents’ and ‘failing to identify survivors.’

They argued that the failure to release the full files and the alleged lack of communication regarding the Department of Justice’s actions ‘reveals an ongoing intention to keep survivors and the public in the dark for as long and as possible’.

Among the thousands of documents made public were several photographs of Clinton; Including this photo of her with Epstein

The records, including photographs, interview transcripts, search transcripts, court records and other documents released by the Justice Department last week, were either already public or largely blacked out, and many lacked necessary context.

There was little explanation in the tens of thousands of pages of records released so far.

Some of the most anticipated records, such as FBI victim interviews and internal memos that shed light on charging decisions, were not there.

‘This legislation, passed almost unanimously in the House and Senate and signed by the President, was clear. “This does not allow disclosure to be delayed,” the alleged victims wrote in a statement released Monday.

‘Instead, the public received some of the files, and what we received was full of abnormal and excessive redactions without explanation. ‘At the same time, many victims were left unidentified, causing real and immediate harm.’

The women accused the Ministry of Justice of violating the law by not publishing all the files and claimed that omissions through redactions also amounted to failure.

‘These are clear violations of a clear law,’ the statement said.

‘Furthermore, the partial release was done in a way that made it difficult or impossible for survivors to find the materials most relevant to our quest for accountability.’

Survivors also called on lawmakers to take action to ensure the Justice Department meets its obligations under the law and called for ‘immediate congressional oversight, including hearings, formal requests for compliance, and legal action.’

‘Someone or something is being protected,’ the former president said in a statement through his spokesman. We don’t need such protection.’

Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has now called on his colleagues to take legal action over the Justice Department’s gradual and substantially redacted release of the records.

On Monday, he introduced a resolution that, if passed, would direct the Senate to file or join lawsuits aimed at forcing the Justice Department to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act — the law that took effect last month and requires records to be released by last Friday.

“Instead of transparency, the Trump administration released a small portion of the files and obscured much of the small amount of files they provided,” Schumer, one of the Senate’s top Democrats, said in a statement. ‘This is a blatant cover-up.’

Instead of Republican support, Schumer’s decision is largely symbolic. The Senate is closed until Jan. 5, more than two weeks after the deadline.

Even then, it will likely face an uphill battle to transition. But it allows Democrats to continue the pressure campaign for the statement that Republicans hope to leave behind.

The Justice Department said it plans to release the records on a rolling basis through the end of the year. The time-consuming process of hiding the names and other identifying information of the victims was cited as the reason for the delay.

So far, the ministry has not made any notification when new records arrive.

That approach angered some accusers and members of Congress who are fighting to pass transparency legislation.

A photo of Donald Trump flanked by bikini-clad women was among more than a dozen files suddenly removed from public view over the weekend, prompting allegations of a cover-up.

Democrats accused Republicans of covering up the incident after the files emerged. The documents, which were available on Friday, were no longer accessible on the DOJ’s website as of Saturday.

The missing files included images depicting naked women, and one showed a series of photographs in a closet and drawers.

This image, among other photos inside the drawer, included a photo of Trump with pedophile Melania Trump and Epstein’s longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Justice Department said Trump’s image was flagged by the Southern District of New York “for potential additional actions to protect victims.”

A statement published on X said the photo was republished on Sunday morning after it was determined that, following angry reactions, there was ‘no evidence that any Epstein victims were depicted in the photo’.

Trump, who was friends with Epstein for years before falling out, tried for months to keep the records sealed.

Although the president has not been charged with any crime related to Epstein, he argued that there was nothing to see in the files and that the public should focus on other issues.

But Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on Sunday defended the Justice Department’s decision to release only a portion of the Epstein files by a congressionally set deadline as necessary actions to protect pedophile victims.

The materials released Friday included photos of other celebrities, such as former president Bill Clinton and pop star Michael Jackson. The duo posed with Diana Ross

He promised that the Trump administration would eventually fulfill its obligations under the law, but stressed that the department must exercise caution when preparing public documents that could contain sensitive information.

Blanche, the Justice Department’s second-in-command, also defended his decision to remove several files related to the case from the public web page, including a photo showing Trump.

He said the documents were removed because they also showed Epstein’s victims. Trump’s photo and other documents will be re-released after corrections are made to protect survivors, Blanche said.

“We do not correct information about President Trump or anyone associated with Mr. Epstein, and this narrative, which is not based in any way on fact, is completely false,” Blanche told NBC’s Meet the Press.

He added that Trump called the Epstein case a “hoax” because “there was a narrative that the Justice Department was hiding and protecting information about him, and that’s completely false.”

“The Epstein files have been around for years, and you haven’t heard a single voice from a single Democrat for the last four years, and yet … look, all of a sudden, Senator Schumer is suddenly interested in the Epstein files,” Blanche said. ‘This is a scam.’

The deputy attorney general’s comments were the most comprehensive by the administration since the file dump.

Federal prosecutors in New York filed sex trafficking charges against Epstein in 2019, but he killed himself in prison after his arrest.

Maxwell, Epstein’s onetime girlfriend, is serving a 20-year federal prison sentence for a 2021 conviction on sex trafficking charges.

The deputy attorney general also defended the federal Bureau of Prisons’ (BOP) decision to transfer Maxwell to a less restrictive, minimum-security federal prison earlier this year, immediately after interviewing her about Epstein.

Blanche said the transfer was made due to concerns for her safety.

“He was facing multiple threats to his life,” Blanche said. ‘So the BOP is responsible not only for putting people in jail and ensuring they stay in jail, but also for their safety.’
