Why did the Trump DOJ turn the Epstein files release into a blatant political weapon while victims wait decades for justice?

On this hard-hitting episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara breaks down the disappointing and politically charged release of Jeffrey Epstein's files, highlighting how the DOJ missed the congressional deadline, front-loaded damaging photos of Bill Clinton, initially removed an image of President Trump only to restore it after backlash, failed to redact a victim's name, and offered no explanations for extensive black bars. Joined on MSNBC's Katy Tur Reports (hosted by Erielle Reshef) by investigative journalist Vicky Ward and others, Tara calls out the administration for treating the files as a cudgel against enemies rather than prioritizing the grave injustices faced by survivors abused by powerful men across administrations.

How much longer will the Justice Department keep shielding perpetrators and sidelining Epstein's victims?
