U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer delays the release of the Epstein Files, January 21, 2026 (Credit: public domain)
Everyone is frustrated because they want to see the Epstein files and I do too, but here are the facts:
As of today, the DOJ has completed a review of over 5 million documents, conducted by over 500 attorneys, and they are ready to be released NOW.
