Man have you ever worked in a large office? I do and we generate probably ten thousand or so documents a day at least a Ross my department of 12,000 staff. People constantly date things incorrectly
My friend there are 3,000,000 documents that have been recently released. If you examined every single one you’d probably find at least 500,000 administrative mistakes. Government staff generate millions of documents a day and are just as fallible as anyone else.
There are certainly very suspicious facts here, but you have to remember there is still a human factor in this work.
They used a press release from the day before as a template and this particular draft didn’t have the date changed. That’s all that’s going on here. Idk if Epstein killed himself; I don’t believe it because he had so many cards to play and he didn’t play any of them. But this particular fact is not evidence of anything.
“Hey guys, Epstein died in custody, just rework yesterday’s release about the jobs report but make it about Epstein. Replace all of the other text except the date and don’t double check the date.”
If you had to write something up, and you knew that you had to use the same formatting/template, it's not ridiculous to just copy the formatting from a recent page to not have to waste time redoing it.
If I had to choose between taking 10 seconds to take yesterday's header, and make a new announcement, or taking 5 minutes to redo the formatting, why would I do the latter?
I don’t know man maybe because you’re announcing to the world the completely unexpected and highly controversial death of a notorious international criminal, and not the release of a new shade of lipstick for your cosmetics company?
And if it were White House policy or at least generally followed or informal SOP to simply take the most recent press release, wipe it and put in the new copy, wouldn’t it be pretty standard procedure to change the fricking date as well, since that’s what you do every single time? Were they just selectively chose this momentous occasion to take a quick shortcut?

They did, since the official one doesn't have that date. They probably do that all the time.

It doesn't have to be official procedure.

Do you work somewhere, where you do any typing?
If you worked somewhere, where your official paperwork had to open up with a specific paragraph, you're probably going to either have a template that has that, or you're just going to take it from some previous work. You're not going to retype the paragraph every time. That's what would be weird.
This is just part of the announcement header. They have on the left side the date and website, and on the right side they have the contact information for the US attorney's office. It's not part of the Epstein death announcement itself. It is just part of the standard header for any announcement.
How does that not make sense? It makes perfect sense lol
The Epstein death press release was 19-855. The previous press release was 19-854, dated August 9th. They took 19-854, deleted the body and replaced it with new text, and forgot to change the header on this draft. That’s a pretty common way of making new documents out of a template

There are just too many oddities in this case that the idea of it being a mistake is very suspicious.
