We didn't protect or not protect anybody, I think there's a hunger or a thirst for information that I do not think will be satisfied by the review of these documents. There's nothing I can do about that. Trump's direction to the DoJ was to be transparent and that's exactly what we did, Blanche says."

Blanche asserts that the Department of Justice complied with the statute and did not protect President Trump or any individual in the release of the Epstein files. The release excludes personally identifiable victim information, victims' personal and medical files, child sexual abuse material, images of death or injury, and items that would jeopardize active federal investigations. Materials covered by deliberative process, work product, and attorney-client privileges were withheld. No redactions were made for national security or foreign policy. The department cited the volume of over six million pages and the need to protect victims as reasons for extended review time.
