Are the Missed Trump Redactions Accidents?
This is purely speculation and I have zero proof, but what if they're not?
Many have been asking why some brave FBI or DoJ employee doesn’t just bite the bullet and release the Epstein Files.
Well, because they’d go to prison. Likely for a very long time. That’s a lot to ask of anyone.
There have been multiple whistleblowers and leakers from within the FBI. For example, the whistleblowers that told Congress about the FBI Information Management Division lockdown this past March. Or the multiple sources who spoke to me anonymously to tell me about what they had seen while reviewing the Epstein files. Those revelations led me to file Freedom of Information Act Requests and eventually sue the DoJ for Epstein redaction training materials.
Since Friday, we’ve seen the DOJ retroactively redact or remove Trump’s name from the files that have already been released. The Associate Press reports: At least 16 files disappeared from the Justice Department’s public webpage for documents related to Jeffrey Epstein — including a photograph showing President Donald Trump — less than a day after they were posted, with no explanation from the government and no notice to the public.
The missing files, which were available Friday and no longer accessible by Saturday, included images of paintings depicting nude women, and one showing a series of photographs along a credenza and in drawers. In that image, inside a drawer among other photos, was a photograph of Trump, alongside Epstein, Melania Trump and Epstein’s longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
Most of us are assuming it’s incompetence. But what if it’s not? What if those aren’t accidents?
I like to imagine that there are folks at the FBI and DoJ who “accidentally on purpose” forgot to redact Trump’s name, or just inadvertently “missed” one of the photos they were supposed to withhold. Outright releasing the files would be easy for the government to prove in court. But an erroneous oversight? You’d have to prove intent, and that could be pretty difficult.
It’s far-fetched, but given the number of government employees who have reached out to me over the past year, and the exceedingly low morale at the FBI with Kash Patel and Dan Bongino in charge (for now), who knows?
Maybe there are a few heroes left in the ranks.

Allison, that was my exact thought. I asked my friend about it this morning when people noticed that #468 was missing since last night. I mentioned how great it would be if some true patriot was trying to do the right thing. To want to help the survivors get justice. America really need some "unsung heroes" about now.
Absolutely deliberately left unreacted for release. Let's hope it continues.
