Bamboozled? Led Astray? Run Amok?
"Phase 1" of Epstein Files Consist Mostly of Lists of Deleted Pages, Plus a Few Heavily Redacted Pages;
Pam Bondi Accuses NY FBI Field Office of Hiding Documents and Lying to Her About Delivering Them All Over

Paul A. Szypula
@Bubblebathgirl

"The Epstein Files: Phase 1" contains 22 parts, most of them heavily redacted.

Part 22 contains the most unredacted pages which have to do with the accusations against Jeffrey Epstein. These pages include emails and letters from lawyers as well as depositions.

No flight log.

Here's an example: Part 10 of the "release" contains only twelve or so pages listing pages which have been deleted. There is no information on what those deleted pages contained, or why they've been deleted.


Super-researchers Jordan Shaechtel asked if the released files contain any new documents. I don't think he got an answer yet.

Attorney General Bondi wrote a letter to FBI Director Patel accusing the NY FBI office of lying and withholding, and demanded the FBI deliver all pages by tomorrow at 8am, with no excuses such as "this information came from a confidential source." She says the DOJ is quite capable of redacting sources and methods on its own, thankyouverymuch.

Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh

So then, Attorney General Pam Bondi has given the FBI until tomorrow at 8AM to give her "full and complete Epstein files."

FBI NY office apparently withheld and disobeyed her initial order...

Think about that. We have a new president, a new attorney general, a new FBI director - and this SH is still happening.

It was NEVER going to be easy. It runs deep. VERY, VERY deep.

Bondi has also ordered an investigation into why her initial order was not followed in the first place.

There is a ton of work to do, folks. This is a problem.

Michael Shellenberger
@shellenberger

The FBI's NY Field Office said it gave @AGPamBondi all its Jeffrey Epstein Files. It lied to her, says Bondi. That may be because Epstein appears to have been running a sex blackmail operation, or honeytrap, for intelligence agencies. The FBI has used honeytraps for decades...

Shellenberger expands on that claim, discussing previous partial disclosures:


Jeffrey Epstein Ran Sex Blackmail Operation For Intelligence Agencies, New Evidence Suggests

Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell used a puppet to entrap Prince Andrew, victim claims in unsealed court documents


The release of new court documents from a lawsuit related to Jeffrey Epstein yesterday "provided little, if any, new fodder for conspiracy theorists who remain fixated on Mr. Epstein's dealings more than four years after his death," according to the New York Times. The documents, the Times claimed, reinforced what the public already knew, namely that pedophile financier Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell made young and often underage women available for sex to powerful men.

In fact, the documents offer new evidence and insight into how Epstein and Maxwell appeared to be blackmailing powerful individuals, albeit to mysterious ends. A judge ordered the release of the court documents, which were from a case brought by Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre against Maxwell in 2015. The parties settled in 2017. Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence.

It's true that some of the information released yesterday had already come to light. Last April, for example, the Wall Street Journal reported that the current director of the Central Intelligence Agency, William Burns, had scheduled three meetings with Epstein in 2014. At the time, Burns was deputy secretary of state. According to the Journal, they met in Washington, D.C., and at Epstein's townhouse in Manhattan. The Journal based its reporting on Epstein's own emails and schedules.

...

But the newly unsealed documents include powerful new evidence that Epstein and Maxwell were deliberately blackmailing people. Johanna Sjoberg, another one of Epstein's victims, recounted that he and Maxwell had created a Prince Andrew puppet for Prince Andrew. They presented it to him and used it to guide him into taking sexual photos with Sjoberg and Giuffre.

"They put the puppet on Virginia's lap," Sjoberg testified, "and I sat on Andrew's lap, and they put the puppet's hand on Virginia's breast, and Andrew put his hand on my breast, and they took a photo."

It is a remarkable passage since Maxwell and Epstein appear to be engaged in a kind of psychological operation, framing Andrew, to himself, as their puppet. Maxwell and Epstein apparently played it off as a joke to Andrew, and he played along, copying his puppet's behavior and groping Sjoberg.

Epstein's sex blackmailing also required coercion. Sjoberg testified that Maxwell directed her to have sex with Prince Andrew. Another filing alleges that Jane Doe #3 was "forced to have sexual relations with this prince when she was a minor in three separate geographical locations" and that Epstein told her to "give the prince whatever he demanded and required Jane Doe #3 to report back to him on the details of the sexual abuse."

The court documents also contain allegations against billionaires Glenn Dubin and Tom Pritzker. Prizker currently serves as the CEO of the Pritzker Organization and as executive chairman of the Hyatt Hotels Corporation and is a member of the Aspen Institute. Giuffre alleges that she had sex with both Dubin and Pritzker under the direction of Maxwell and Epstein.

...

The Epstein scandal has implicated many powerful people. Melinda Gates told reporters last year that her husband Bill's connections to Epstein had been part of the reason for her decision to seek a divorce from him. "I did not like that he'd had meetings with Jeffrey Epstein, no," she told Gayle King.

Bill Gates said Epstein tried to blackmail him. "Mr. Gates met with Epstein solely for philanthropic purposes. Having failed repeatedly to draw Mr. Gates beyond these matters, Epstein tried unsuccessfully to leverage a past relationship to threaten Mr. Gates," a spokeswoman for Gates told the Wall Street Journal last year.

Epstein and Maxwell appear to have been running a large and well-funded blackmail operation. Why would they?

What people forget about HH is that is a wartime spy story, not a McHale's Navy sitcom where the enlisted men are trying to pull profitable scams on their officers. Hogan and his men routinely obtained intelligence and passed it on to the Allies. The last thing they wanted was to get rid of Klink. The Germans might have put in someone competent -- and Hogan's entire spy apparat would have been blown up.

But I think M*A*S*H does hold up -- the best episodes do, for sure.

She told agencies to turn over what they had, and they put it in a folder on her desk. She just didn't check what they submitted before announcing it to the public. Oopsies!

Don't be like "I've got the Epstein Files, ta dah! Here is part 1, there will be more because we have to make sure innocent victims are protected" and only when it's obvious to everyone and their mother that there's more start to backtrack and blame the FBI office for not turning everything over.

The obvious play is to, from the start, frame it as "look what the FBI turned over and claimed was complete. The American People don't like being lied to and I'm going to hold those responsible accountable."

She’s shocked, SHOCKED, at this development. And she, uh, sent another memo about it? Made a Twitter posting?

If you actually wanted to get to the bottom of this you’d send your own loyal people to those offices to conduct an exhaustive search and seize and files related to Epstein. Because you suspect a cover-up. You don’t send a memo asking.

PEDO Act: Lawmaker moves to protect Epstein files, accuses 'certain FBI agents' of trying to destroy docs
Elizabeth Elkind, Thu, February 27, 2025

"Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., is preparing legislation to safeguard the FBI’s Jeffrey Epstein files, citing concerns that some documents at the bureau were in danger of being destroyed." (More)

The PEDO Act, Preventing Epstein Documentation Obliteration Act

Why is any legislation needed to protection executive branch investigative files from destruction when there are already many such federal laws?

That's the first rule of getting a delivery is that you check the contents.

The only way this doesn't make her look stupid is if it's theater to demonstrate why they're going to come down like a ton of bricks on the office that gave them the documents.

And even then, it makes her look stupid.

Posted by: Nova Local at February 27, 2025 03:46 PM (exHjb)

119 ...So we're going with the rogue agents in the FBI's NYC office tricked the AG story?

Reminds me of the rogue IRS agents in Cincinnati.

How about this: Congressional hearings of the NYPD officers involved in raiding Epsteins house. Let's put them under oath and see what they claim they found. Then tell us what happened next.

Start sending people to prison. Someone will talk.

But again, the larger story here is not the specifics of this disgusting operation, it's who was behind it.

That's what we need to find out. And those people need to be made to pay.

Because I highly suspect we're going to find out very own friendly intelligence services were behind this. And we can certainly charge CIA agents and handlers with sex trafficking and put them in prison. That will convince me that anyone in DC is taking this Epstein story seriously.

And if it turns out that Mossad or MI6 were involved, we need to respond very seriously, up to and including sanctions and interpol warrants for anyone involved.

This is some sick shit, I don't know why we as a country are making memes out of this and aren't more offended and outraged.

3. There is no (public) evidence that Andrew was aware she was working for Epstein. Given that he appears to have an IQ only slightly above a rock, that's believable.
4. Andrew settled the case at the orders of his mother who felt it was damaging to the monarchy. He maintained his innocence and wanted to fight.

You know the FBI in NY deleted the files...so you pass out binders to conservative media folks, but tell them Bondi will release the data and then have them smiling and release the photo to everyone...then you have those FBI agents who thought they deleted all the info panicking and call/writing/meeting their co-conspirators and telling them not to worry or that they'll check on what folks have...

And this is how you get evidence when there isn't any more to find...

If you know how to play the game...Trump has so far, but this I'm far less certain he could pull off...they did give this a week of press, which does make me even more suspicious...

Ghislaine's dad, who was given a state funeral in Israel after he fell off his yacht and drowned with no witnesses, was being investigated for stealing something like $400 million from a British newspapers pension fund.

Not long after, Epstein shows up on the scene, connected to Ghislaine, with hundreds of billions of dollars from... Les Wexler? I don't know, they don't even try to explain it.

Can draw some lines there.

165 Well if all we get out of "release Epstein's files" is exposed FBI malfeasance and Bondi uses "the coverup is the crime" like the FBI is so fond of doing to shitcan some of the corrupt FIBBIES and if we are lucky maybe actually prosecute a couple for illegally destroying evidence it will still be a net gain.

At the tender age of 29 I've learned that often the only thing I'll get out of a Republican victory is some commie tears and fears. Trump overall has been a pleasant exception, actually delivering on what he campaigns on, to the extent he can with the GOPe, spit, hobbling him.

It made plenty of missteps, but it was not intended to be a true, realistic portrait of their part of the war. And the casting (once they got rid of McLean Stevenson, really) was inspired.

171 Opportunities...opportunities....opportunities

My personal interest in seeing the perverts of Epstein Island is more of a novelty. I have my assumptions just like everyone else.

BUT, an opportunity develops in that the opposition thinks this is a hill to die on. It seems to me that proving there is other information available, and that the FBI NY field office is refusing a directive from their boss is grounds to vacate each and every one of the individuals taking that stance. Good riddance. That's better than novelty voyeur nonsense to me.

Additionally, it provides the opportunity to "tune" these people up a little and find out who is coordinating the opposition in that location. And, once that is taken care of...then release whatever else is acquired. If it has been destroyed. Arrest, prosecute, convict, jail...and spike the heads at the castle gates.

Meaning he was made up (not literally) by the spooks from DC. Given a sht load of money and told what to do and how to do it. Of course, that doesn't excuse the POS' that went after these underage girls. That part was real. So was the blackmail that went with it.

I don't either. In fact, I remember most of the day here yesterday people were furious she wasn't talking about it at all.

Unless she is straight up lying which seems pretty unlikely since there is absolutely no reason to lie, she was lied to by the same FBI that ran a coup attempt on a sitting president, raided his house, spied on Americans without warrants, etc..

Her letter to Kash says she ordered all Epstein files be turned over to her and asked multiple times for confirmation this was all they had. They lied to her. It wasn't until whistleblower came forward that she found out there were files being withheld.

Just my own opinion on Cernovich...I used to read his stuff years ago now and then. Until he wrote something about once going out with a tranny, who he did not know was a tranny til it got weird, nasty, and he went into gross detail. The End.

I follow very few people as I don't have social media and also don't have time. I trust a few, like James Woods, Kirk, etc. I trust Trump and Vance and cabinet. Loomer, no. I don't like shrieky wimmen.

It was only a week or so ago that prosecutors in SDNY resigned rather than drop the case against Adams as they were ordered to do by DOJ HQ. Was that an embarrassment for the DOJ?

289 People have short memories. There were a whole lotta conservative “activists” and people who live their lives on X demanding an immediate release. They even accused Bondi of withholding the documents. She obviously felt the pressure and simply released whatever was received with very little review.

And how could Patel gather up thousands of files in 1 day. The demand letter was dated today.
Something else is going on. Did Patel need a written command from Bondi to have the authority he needed?

328 I have to say I thought it was odd that they were releasing the files so quickly. We've always been told there were thousands of pages, videos, recordings etc. How could she review anything but a summary in so short a time?
And how could Patel gather up thousands of files in 1 day. The demand letter was dated today.
Something else is going on. Did Patel need a written command from Bondi to have the authority he needed?
Were they pulling "Its classified and you're not cleared" crap on them?

Maybe the FBI office said that SDNY had the files and SDNY said the FBI has them. With the AG commanding the Director of the FBI to hand over the files, that should cover both offices until some district judge issues a TRO saying they can't see them.

355 I don't know why everyone is freaking out over this. Most of the documentation of this was destroyed when Epstein was murdered. We know the agencies destroyed everything on the island. My guess is that Bondi got most of what's left of the op. And if there's pics, we'll never see them. They've been hidden far away if not destroyed by now.

I never thought about it, TJM, but I suppose it might . . . except the two-parter is not well-plotted. It's full of logical holes (despite having a nice thunderbolt surprise within it). Come to think of it, though, you'd need to know something about Kimble's family, his sister and brother-in-law, and I'm not sure they're in the premiere.

With Kimble, the journey, the people he met and the lives he affected over four years, were as much the story as his hunt for the one-armed man.

My previous in-the-car story was an Arthur tale The Winter King (about 200 years away). Lots of fighting with heavy shields and short sword in formations, that reminds me of the movie 300.

Whereas Solomon Kane was never happy, Conan was happy by disposition. I did not get a feel yet for Kull.

It was episodic, and well done. But every few episodes, Kimble got a hint about the one-armed man, or Lt. Gerard got a clue to Kimble's whereabouts, or both. So the thread of his hunt was never lost -- just not taken up in every episode.

The series was well-written. Each story that happened to Kimble happened *because* he was a fugitive, because he had something to hide, not just because he was passing through.

I've heard that theory from the beginning.

It is a bit odd that a NY Post reporter happened to be hanging out at the (unsecure?) loading dock of a federal prison with a camera in hand to be there to take a picture of a dead epstein on a stretcher.

And the angle of the picture makes it very difficult to tell if it is or isnt Epstein.

556 >>No, right now this is a shitstorm, better to let your underlings stand out there and take the heat.

What heat?

They have effectively proven that there are rogue elements in the FBI who are defying the AG. She's been in the job less than two weeks, these aren't her hires. This is exactly what all of us and them have been saying, the FBI is corrupt and this is a perfect example.

563 I always thought that Jeanne Triple horn was miscast in The Firm.

Every time I watch it, I can't help but think that Simmons Ryder would have been better in the role of Abby.

567 Trump can't end the junta alone. He has to let the underlings do shit on their own without hovering. The DOJ is Bondi's. She can't end the corruption of the DOJ alone. Etc, etc, etc.

Why doesn't Trump swoop in?

Why doesn't he swoop in to Ag, or Education, or Labor? The entire edifice is rotten. Trump is not going to Atlas the whole fucking thing on his shoulders. He tried that once already and it failed miserably.

570 I think the first Cruz Reacher movie is much better than either of those TV seasons. The second Reacher Cruz movie is like wtf.

He's hilariously miscast as Reacher, but Cruise did really well in that first movie. The second was just terrible. I really enjoyed the first season of Reacher, other than the ludicrous fight in the pool against a toothless hillbilly. Jack Reacher literally steamrolls through armies of huge, tough, seasoned fighters, and this loser almost kills him???

Low balling is quoting an unobtainable thing, such as a car salesman quoting a price so low the car will never be sold at.
That is also a variation of being over-sold.
Pushing a brass ring that will not be obtained.

592 Is anyone really surprised? Without any disciplinary action, the Federal straight shootin' law enforcement professionals will disobey the Bad Orange Man's representative all day, every day and twice on Sunday. I'd think that most of the senior DoJ folks have been "Resist we much, the Bad Orange Man for about ten years now. No one's made them change course yet. Some (McCabe, Strzok & Page) were handsomely rewarded (with taxpayer dollars) for their service at the DoJ in service to the DNC.

593 Not particularly excited about the Epstein list except as it relates to the hammer , or lack thereof, that Bondi can swing on behalf of Trump. Certainly looks like Bondi may need some learning to be a first tier MAGA cabinet player.. hope she learns quickly . Trump needs a fearsome AG.
