Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt As the DOJ releases the largest batch of files yet on the federal investigation into Epstein, we look at some of the most significant revelations with investigative journalist Vicky Ward, who has spent decades reporting on the deceased sexual predator, his powerful associates and the impact of his crimes. Survivors have condemned the Department of Justice for not complying with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which required all files to be released last Friday. "I mean, that was the first indication of the contemptuous, cavalier attitude that has gone on inside this Justice Department," says Ward. "It's heartbreaking, frankly, to see these files being dribbled out." Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.

Stump looks like the toddler whose hands and face are covered in chocolate while adamantly denying that he ate the chocolate. 🤗
