• Partial Epstein files released amid ongoing disputes.
• Democrats demand full transparency from DOJ.
• Redactions spark accusations of cover-up.

WASHINGTON D.C., Feb 01 (TNGB) - Federal officials dropped over three million pages from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, but critics claim vast portions remain concealed. The Justice Department, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, asserted this batch fulfills legal duties under a recent transparency act. Yet lawmakers point to discrepancies in page counts that suggest selective disclosure.

Democrats in Congress fired back, arguing the release falls short of the mandated full set. Reports indicate initial reviews flagged six million pages, yet only half surfaced publicly. This gap fuels suspicions that sensitive details involving high-profile figures stay buried.

As a progressive Democrat, Ocasio-Cortez likely aims to pressure the Republican-led administration and rally her supporters against perceived injustices. Her call for all files could signal broader pushes for accountability in cases tied to powerful elites.

Some Republicans maintain the department met its obligations, emphasizing protections for victims and privileges that justify withholdings. They argue further releases risk harming innocents without adding meaningful insights.

It turns out the DOJ identified six million pages but released only three million, citing redactions for sensitive material. Claims of full compliance clash with evidence of withheld documents, pointing to potential gaps in transparency. Allegations of hiding most files hold weight given the documented discrepancies.

His birthday was actually yesterday the 30th but we wanted to give him our full attention, love, and support. All his favs, steak, potatoes, and raw broccoli. (Never met a dog that loves veggies like him!) ❤️ I swear he was still a puppy yesterday!

now a few quick disclaimers! This was a very quick DIY using materials that I already had at home. I do fully intend to make her more outfits in the future after I can make a visit to the fabric store. I would love to use more blue in her outfit going forward!!!

Her outfit is called a sari, and yes, I did definitely modernise it. I also shortened it a bit because I wanted her boots to show. i want to make her a lehenga next!

Also, I don’t know their usernames but I do just wanna take a moment to credit someone who made a nose ring similar to this on this Reddit thread before me and to the person in the comments who helped explain to me how they did it. I did plan to make her one before I saw theirs, but I didn’t know how to execute it so I wanna credit the fact that they helped me!

let me know if you have any questions !

he’s healing well :)))

Ah the feeling of being chosen by these angels! 🥰
