The Department of Justice must immediately open criminal investigations into every individual named in the Epstein files who enabled, participated in, or covered up his crimes. No one should be above the law, regardless of their wealth, power, or political connections.
The inspector general's investigation into DOJ compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act is a start, but transparency alone is not justice. Representative Thomas Massie is right: men need to be perp-walked in handcuffs for the justice system to work properly. Yet despite millions of files released, we have seen no new prosecutions. The DOJ claims some files must remain private due to open cases, but which cases? Who is being investigated? The silence suggests protection, not prosecution.
Survivor Annie Farmer called any potential pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell "profoundly insulting and a deep betrayal." I agree completely. Maxwell should serve her full sentence, and everyone who helped her and Epstein should face charges. The victims deserve accountability, not political calculations about who is too powerful to touch.
Prosecute them all. Release the remaining three million files. Show us that justice applies equally to everyone.
