Morning Update: Congress Is Set To Begin Receiving Epstein Files From The DOJ (8/22/25)

Congress is selling the public a performance when it comes to the Epstein files. On the surface, it looks like accountability—hearings, subpoenas, stacks of documents—but in reality, whatever gets released will be heavily redacted and sanitized long before it ever reaches daylight. The most critical names and connections, especially those tied to intelligence agencies, politicians, bankers, and global elites, will be buried under black ink. The hearings themselves, often held behind closed doors, aren’t about exposing truth but about managing narrative. The spectacle is meant to create the illusion of progress while ensuring nothing truly explosive slips through.This is the same playbook the government has used for decades: generate fanfare around “transparency,” trickle out neutered files, and then declare victory once public outrage fades. Epstein’s story isn’t just about one man—it’s about a system of blackmail, compromise, and protection that stretches across institutions of power. That’s why the truth can’t be allowed out. In the end, the Epstein files won’t deliver justice; they’ll serve as another diversion, another false closure, another managed scandal designed to protect the very machine that allowed Epstein to operate in the first place.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
