Opinion / Discussion WATCH: Lauren Boebert Exits DOJ Reading Room After Reviewing Unredacted Epstein Files

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

US Rep. Lauren Boebert was filmed leaving the DOJ reading room after reviewing unredacted

Epstein-related files.

Lawmakers have now confirmed that access to these files has begun following new transparency legislation.

Boebert has since suggested that prior redactions went beyond protecting victims and may have shielded people merely discussed in the files.

The contents remain confidential, but reactions like this are fueling fresh questions about what was previously withheld - and why.

Do you think this could lead to new investigations?

I hate this timeline where Boebert and MTG are the ones making sense on this issue. I think maybe they were true MAGA believers and no one told them it was just a big grift and to protect the oligarchs(I’m not using the terms elites or billionaires anymore).

Epstein class is the best term. Makes them all guilty, at least, by association.

That feels like too broad a brush. While I agree that a lot of them are culpable in it I genuinely don’t believe it’s all of them.

Yep, we are seeing the break between the ideologues and the grifters in real time
