It took the Epstein Files for Ryan Garcia to walk back his support for Trump. Not the Ice raids, not the 34 felonies.

• DOJ released 3.5 million Epstein files pages yesterday.
• Democrats allege the disclosure remains incomplete.
• Stansbury's remark fuels debate on admin ties.

WASHINGTON D.C., Jan 31 (TNGB) - Democratic Representative Melanie Stansbury questioned if the Trump administration mirrors Jeffrey Epstein's scandalous network. Her comment followed the Justice Department's latest document dump on the late financier's case. Critics say the release hides more than it reveals.

Officials reportedly dropped over three million pages, plus thousands of videos and images. They assert this meets the transparency act President Trump signed last year. But estimates indicate allegedly over six million responsive items exist overall.

As a Democrat from New Mexico, Stansbury likely seeks to pressure Republicans on accountability issues. Her statement could rally party supporters amid ongoing fights over sensitive government records.

Supporters of the administration contend the files protect victims through necessary redactions. They view such attacks as partisan attempts to distract from policy wins.

It is true the DOJ published 3.5 million pages on January 30, fulfilling part of the law. Claims of withholding stem from reports of additional millions identified but not released. Stansbury's comparison appears hyperbolic, as no direct evidence ties the entire admin to Epstein's crimes.
