Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
Basically the Trump administration is violating the law by not releasing all of the files but some were made available.

Leaked congress memo written by Todd Blanche.
Ro Khanna says that he wants to impeach or prosecute people for not following his Epstein Files bill.
They used a separate redaction method for CSAM. Pages which contained CSAM are replaced with a blue sheet that says "CSAM not scanned", but there are also a bunch of pages that are just fully black redacted. There is no explanation for why there are so many full black bar pages.
This PDF has 55 pages of solid black.

That actually made me laugh!
that was his backup black book
when they called it a 'black book' somehow this isn't what I was expecting
Basically Rothko inspired performance art atp
Oh neat 55 maps of everything
On the 10th anniversary edition of the Epstein Files they're going to reveal that You, the Reader were the true pedophile all along
What possible reasoning could they have redact anything other than names? Not that it matters but I'm curious what their excuse will be.
They will say there is an active investigation and that it will compromise it
“National security” and “foreign policy” were also reasons the bill lets them redact which could be used for virtually anything
ran out of color ink
