For Trump, the Epstein Files Won’t Go Away

Wall Street Journal: “The plan to move past Epstein hit a snag when Justice Department officials determined it was too difficult to make the necessary redactions in time. Instead they posted just the first tranche of documents Friday and promised to release more in coming weeks.”

“The timing makes it likely that Trump’s relationship with Epstein—which by Trump’s account ended when he cut off ties long before Epstein was first arrested in 2006—will continue to make news. The issue threatens to have a drip, drip, drip cadence that prevents the White House from fully turning the page.”
