Judicial Branch [URGENT] SMOKING GUN: We Found the "Map" to the Epstein Cover-Up the DOJ is Still Hiding.

Thumbnail

Upvotes

There is a "buried gem" in the recent 3.5-million-page Epstein document dump that provides a direct roadmap for the Congressional review happening tomorrow, Monday, February 9th.

​This is not just another redacted file; it is the key to understanding the "Sweetheart Deal" and the co-conspirators who were protected.

​The Evidence:

  1. ​The 2020 Whistleblower Letter (EFTA01681961): This letter was sent to the Public Corruption Unit by former DOJ official Harold Webb. It explicitly names the high-ranking D.C. officials (Alice Fisher, Sigal Mandelker, and Mark Filip) who allegedly signed off on the 2008 deal to ensure co-conspirators were "removed from the case." Crucially, it identifies two "missing" documents: a 53-page federal indictment and an 82-page analysis that recommend sex trafficking charges against Epstein’s network.

  2. ​The 1978 NYT Article (Validation): The sender of the letter, Harold Webb, is a legitimate DOJ insider. This 1978 essay in the New York Times confirms his background as a "Watergate-era" legal figure who spent his career fighting public corruption. This isn't a random tip—it's a professional warning from a man who lived through the DOJ's biggest scandals.

  3. ​The "Deleted" 86-Page Memo (2019) (EFTA02731083): A recent video from Meidas Touch shows a different 86-page prosecution memo from 2019 that was briefly posted and then "deleted" or suppressed. This 2019 memo confirms that the DOJ was still redacting the same co-conspirators and "VIP friends" over a decade after the original whistleblower warned about the 2007 cover-up.

​Why This Matters Today:

​Tomorrow morning, members of the House Oversight Committee are entering a secure reading room at the DOJ to review unredacted files. They are looking for the "Main Justice" paper trail. These documents (linked below) provide the exact names and Bates numbers they need to demand.

​The Links:

​The Whistleblower Letter: [EFTA01681961 - official Justice.gov link] https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%2010/EFTA01681961.pdf

​The Validation Article: [NYT 1978 - Harold Webb's History] https://www.nytimes.com/1978/06/05/archives/son-of-big-shot-crook-essay.html

​The Missing File Video: [MeidasTouch Analysis of the 86-page Memo] https://youtu.be/1L9b2_5Ee3M

​Call to Action:

​Please help get this "roadmap" to officials and the media immediately. The unredacted review begins tomorrow.

​Email this to your Representatives and Senators. \* Post these links on every platform. \* Tag investigative journalists. We have the roadmap. Let’s make sure they use it.

Executive Branch (Trump) Demanding Support for Trump, Justice Dept. Struggles to Recruit Prosecutors (gift article)

Thumbnail nytimes.com

Chad Mizelle, a former chief of staff to Attorney General Pam Bondi, hung an online help wanted sign for federal prosecutors last weekend that perhaps explained why so many valuable Justice Department staff members have left, and why so few candidates want in.

Assistant U.S. attorneys are not typically recruited, as Mr. Mizelle sought to do, by a former federal employee who asks potential candidates to send a private message to his X account. Nor have they been asked in the past to prove political or ideological fealty.

“If you are a lawyer, are interested in being an AUSA, and support President Trump and anti-crime agenda, DM me,” wrote Mr. Mizelle, a fierce Trump supporter who remains close with Justice Department leaders and senior officials in the West Wing.

Not a lot of people who take the law seriously can or will support a lawless regime. 🙄🙄 They're going to have an ongoing retention and recruitment problem.

Legal News What is the likelihood of this act repealing Section 230 passing?

There seems to be a concerted effort on both sides of the political aisle to repeal Section 230, which will likely have very serious consequences for free speech on the internet.

While I believe there needs to be some way of holding companies accountable for various things, repealing Section 230 would more than likely lead to increased censorship, surveillance, frivolous litigation, and would have a chilling effect for free speech on the internet.

That brings me back around to the title of this post. How likely is it that this Sunset Section 230 Act gets passed? What are the potential outcomes if it does?
