In preparation for potential public release, the documents then went to a unit of FOIA officers who applied redactions in accordance with the nine exemptions. The people familiar with the matter said that Trump’s name, along with other high-profile individuals, was blacked out because he was a private citizen when the federal investigation of Epstein was launched in 2006.
In particular, the reviewers applied two FOIA exemptions to justify their redactions. The first, Exemption 6, protects individuals against “a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.” The Supreme Court has said the exemption protects “individuals from the injury and embarrassment” that would result from the disclosure of personal information in possession of the government.
Just think about how many people actually have read the unredacted version and know for certain the names of the people who raped children with trump and Epstein
And then decided “let’s keep this secret”
We are lousy with abusive billionaires.
We need a flea bath.
Of course they did.
Next startling revelation: the 100 names the DOJ gave Maxwell to give to the DOJ are all political and/or business enemies of Trump.
Rosie O’Donnell is there twice.
Let me get this straight; his name is redacted because he was a private citizen, but now we can’t prosecute because he’s elected president? That’s handy for him
So the names of all the private citizens will be redacted, right?
The reality is his name is redacted because he’s a Republican, and he can’t be prosecuted because he’s a Republican.
I’m going to continue to assume that Trump is guilty the absolute worst stuff that is in those files, as should everyone else until they prove he’s not.
They have tapes of Trump raping children.
you mean like raping a girl that looked like his at the time 13 or so daughter because of the similarity between them, then threatening with violence to stop her from pursuing legal action?
Yep, that’s the kid Trump raped. We can confirm Virginia Giuffre. He also flew many times on the Lolita Express (so you know convicted felon Trump has been raping kids for a while).
Yup, but let’s not stop there - he’s guilty of everything in those files until they release something that specifically exonerates him.
We need to respect the victims, that’s why we can’t release it.
Now watch the real thing be released full of victim names as he calls for harrasing them… but all the perpetrators names redacted.
We have to protect the victims. No, not those victims, we meant like…Gislane Maxwell and Donald Trump
Something so predictable only a life long Republican would have taken odds against it.
19 years and there have been no other arrests besides him and maxewell? Yeah justice is dead.
How about “individual one”? Worked before…
We should just assume that the current administration is as or more corrupt (legally and morally) as the Nazis
Any differences are cosmetic
100%, this is a fascist regime slash kleptocracy.
Taco and Vance do wear a lot of cosmetics…
Plus, there’s a new policy: to make sure we can’t tell what data is overwritten, they will overwrite all instances of the name “Donald Trump” with the precise technical term “Bill Clinton”…
Hunter Biden somehow
His laptop was found in the files!
Incoherent MAGA screeching.
BUT HER EEEEEEEEMAAIILSSSSSSSS
We can’t read completely blacked out pages. Where are the words!?
What a relief. I guess he’s totally Innocent then.
Really? An authoritarian with nothing to hide would make sure he and his friends didn’t show up in documents of a sex trafficker? Golly, none of us saw that coming.
We can only hope…
