The Epstein Files Belong to the Victims, Too. It's Time to Release Everything.
Today’s press conference showed that anything less than that is cowardly.

It was an altogether remarkable press conference on a bright early autumn day as breathable air made its annual return to the nation's capital. It was remarkable not merely for the very strange coalition of congress critters who called it, Democrat Ro Khanna and Republican hardbars Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene. It was remarkable because it was a demonstration of public courage on the steps of a building that has fairly reeked of timidity and cowardice for almost a decade now.
"My name is Marina Lacerda," one woman said, "I was Minor Victim One in federal indictment of Jeffrey Epstein in New York in 2019."
With that simple introduction, all the persiflage and evasions and total bullshit surrounding the so-called Epstein Files fell away and all that was left was a group of women, subjected to incomprehensible injuries as young girls, demanding to know what evidence their government gathered in their names and at their expense as taxpayers.
There was more here than a justified ensemble call for justice, although that certainly was an important part of it. The press conference also illuminated the individual damage wrought on all the women, as Lacerda, a Brazilian emigre who was recruited into Epstein's house of horrors when she barely had begun high school, explained.
