"After finally going live on Friday, the Justice Department portal that allows you to search the "full Epstein library" appears to be either broken, or at least not fully up to speed, because entering obviously relevant search terms are turning up zilch. Enter "Trump," for example, and there will be "no results found." Search "Epstein," and still nada. The issue was flagged by Ben Collins of The Onion notoriety, and other users took notice."
"In all, it's not a good look for the Trump administration, which has - surprise - underdelivered on the president's promise to expose Epstein's dealings. A first batch of Epstein files released shortly after he took office offered little that the public didn't already know. It ignited an uproar in July, when the DoJ said it wouldn't release anymore files to the public, before backtracking in the face of overwhelmingly negative public reception."
"This waffling on the Epstein issue may or may not have something to do with the fact that Trump seems to have had pretty close ties to Epstein. Trump has repeatedly played down his past friendship with the deceased billionaire, though his name has come up repeatedly in a batch of Epstein's emails released by the House Oversight Committee last month."
The Department of Justice released hundreds of thousands of records from its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein via an online portal. The portal appears to return no results for obvious search terms such as "Trump" and "Epstein," with users flagging the issue. The portal malfunction reflects poorly on the current administration after an earlier, limited file release and a temporary refusal to release additional files. The files and related emails have repeatedly connected prominent figures to Epstein, including references to a purported signed letter from Trump. Not all documents have been released despite a court deadline.
