In a Wednesday episode of "The Jim Acosta Show," former Justice Department pardon attorney Liz Oyer spoke to Acosta about the redactions in a transfer application given to Bloomberg investigative reporter Jason Leopold earlier this week.

Attorney Arick Fudali, who represents 11 Epstein survivors, told CNN anchor Boris Sanchez he was stunned to learn about the comments from attorney Kathy Ruemmler, the former Goldman Sachs general counsel, who was questioned behind closed doors by the House Oversight Committee earlier this month about her relationship with the financier.

Two political commentators got into a heated shouting match over whether more action needs to be taken on the Epstein files.

During a late-night panel discussion, progressive podcaster Brian Tyler Cohen spoke about Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and argued that he was elevated because he knows how to protect Trump from the Epstein files.

MAGA radio show host Jason Rantz responded to Cohen's comments by asking, "What crime did Trump commit as it relates directly to Epstein?" Rantz argued that Trump isn't criminally implicated in the Epstein files....
