Schnitt admitted that “There’s thousands and thousands of page-open files,” and further described how the department would handle disclosure of the material: “If they’re released in any way, it’s going to be very redacted.”
He further revealed new information regarding Epstein co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell. “She got transferred to a minimum security prison,” Schnitt said, despite her conviction as a sex offender. “It’s against BOP policy because she’s a convicted sex offender. And they’re not supposed to get minimum security prisons, which is an interesting detail because she’s getting a benefit, which means they’re offering her something to keep her mouth shut.”
Schnitt also revealed internal conflict within federal law enforcement over the release of said files. “The head of FBI [Kash Patel] really wants to… second-in-command [Dan Bongino] at FBI has been causing problems, because he’s like, ‘No, these [Epstein Files] have to be released.’ He added, “The FBI wants them out. The top two guys that will do it. But they work for Bondi, so… Bondi wants whatever Trump wants. Internally there’s a lot of conflict.”
Despite public assurances that the government has been transparent, Schnitt admitted that nothing substantive has been revealed: “Whatever they’ve released has already been publicly released anyway, so they haven’t released anything new. Even though they were the ones that were claiming that they were going to release everything.”

Stocks tumbled again today, but had a bit of a stick save into the close.
There will be a stock option expiration on Friday.
And there will be a precious metals option expiration on the Comex on Monday the 24th.
I think it will take an event of some moderate significance to break the support that Scott Bessent of the Treasury and his Wall Street hedge fund cronies are employing to keep the bubble floating.
The smart money is getting out now. But the least scrupulous traders will keep dancing while the music is playing, dancing and looting the real economy until it hits the wall. And then they will try to stick the public with the tab.
The US is now operating with a flywheel, without serious adult supervision to rein in the wackier ideas that pop out seemingly out of nowhere and gain a momentum without any serious strategic and even tactical consideration.
Words like 'out of control' come to mind. 'Reckless disregard' are some others. The cult of personality is still standing but support, particularly among those with access to alternative news media, is melting.
There are too many signs of a deterioration in judgement, and a growing cult of erratic malignancy.
The Europeans have let the irresponsible take control. I don't see how you can view the things they are doing and saying and come to any other conclusion.
Tough times ahead. Until something breaks.
Have a pleasant evening.
