Joyce Vance states the obvious while Grampy 'n' Pam pretend they're deep in another sly game of 3-D chess...

The Justice Department is now all but openly manipulating the release of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case files to insulate President Donald Trump from any potentially damaging information, former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance wrote on her Substack on Wednesday.

This comes after White House officials started directly controlling the social media account for the DOJ, which shortly proclaimed a letter in which Epstein appeared to incriminate Trump was "fake" and called an influencer expressing skepticism a "dope."

"No other person whose name surfaces in a criminal case gets this sort of boost on the official Justice Department account, and it’s an outrage (and another marker of authoritarianism) that this president does," wrote Vance. "The Justice Department doesn’t represent the president, or at least it isn’t supposed to. But this DOJ is led by an Attorney General who represented Trump when he was impeached and a Deputy Attorney General who was his personal criminal defense lawyer. Many of the U.S. Attorneys bear strong personal loyalty to Trump. It’s unprecedented, but that doesn’t mean we can’t label an outrage as an outrage."
