In yet another stunning display of government opacity, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton is calling out the Department of Justice for what he rightly calls a *cover-up* involving the Jeffrey Epstein files. Despite a years-long scandal involving elite powerbrokers and a global sex-trafficking ring, the DOJ continues to claim—unbelievably—that there is *no incriminating client list*. But according to Fitton, the list exists, and the only thing more shocking than the abuse is the blatant political protection behind the scenes.
Appearing on *The Ingraham Angle* Tuesday night, Fitton didn’t mince words: “There’s a list. There’s no doubt.” He blasted the DOJ’s flimsy attempt to sweep the matter under the rug, dismissing their claim that an exhaustive FBI review turned up nothing useful. “They talk about it in the memo,” he said. “‘Well, there’s no incriminating client list.’ Well, what does that mean? I want the *non-incriminating* client list.”
Fitton, like many Americans, suspects politics is at play here. “I think they decided, for political purposes, they didn’t want to include the individuals who were on these lists and put them in the public domain,” he said. “That’s the most charitable interpretation I can give.”
Let’s be clear: This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s a glaring reality that Epstein’s close ties to powerful political figures—on both sides of the aisle, but especially among wealthy left-wing elites—may be the very reason this scandal keeps getting buried. The same federal agencies that have spent years targeting conservatives for speaking truth are now conveniently blind when it comes to uncovering the full scope of Epstein’s network.
Fitton’s organization has gone as far as filing a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) lawsuit to obtain these records. The response? Crickets. “We asked: ‘Pam Bondi, give us the documents that you say you were looking at. Give us documents about the release of these documents. You said the FBI was obstructing the release.’ They came back to us and said, ‘We have nothing,’” Fitton revealed.
The DOJ’s memo, released this month, claimed that teams of FBI agents, analysts, and attorneys “combed through the digital and documentary evidence.” Yet, conveniently, much of the material remains sealed under court orders. How convenient that the public is being told to “move along, nothing to see here,” while over *one thousand victims* are quietly acknowledged in the very same documents.
The memo also denied any evidence that Epstein blackmailed the powerful or that there’s cause to investigate “uncharged third parties.” Translation? The FBI found what they didn’t *want* to see and decided to shut the case.
This is the same FBI that raided Trump’s home over documents, but can’t be bothered to tell us who was flying to Epstein Island with teenage girls. This is the same DOJ that indicts pro-life advocates and ignores Antifa riots, but suddenly becomes shy when elites are implicated in the abuse of minors.
Americans deserve answers. They deserve accountability. And they deserve to know who Jeffrey Epstein was really protecting—and who is being protected now.
Tom Fitton and Judicial Watch aren’t backing down. And neither should the American people.
