Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@LegalAFMTN?sub_confirmation=1 Donald Trump's DOJ blew the Epstein files deadline for nearly a month with no end in sight. Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) asked a federal judge to appoint a special master to take it out of the government's hands. A federal judge in New York just asked the government to respond. So is transparency just around the corner? Not so fast. Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News and Florida law man Dave Aronberg explain why this legal fight is a longshot — but still probably a step in the right direction.

I was just thinking of María Farmer who filed a police report in 1996. Thirty years ago. All of these women deserve justice NOW.

Why do we keep giving them another date to respond? They already demonstrated they aren’t willing by refusing to release the files. The system is ridiculously flawed.

The victims have expressed concerns and do support a special master. I nominate Jack smith.

The DOJ cannot be trusted. That statement says it all.

Contempt of the Court should mean those in contempt should go to Jail.

We need to have a special counsel to oversee these files.
