Shouldn't your request be to the judge, and not the Trump admin?
I assume the DOJ asked the judge to do just that, which the judge (obviously) denied.
So, pushing to bring wealthy serial abusers of minors to justice is unreasonable?
I'm at a loss to understand what you're worried about given your confidence that any Trump involvement is utterly implausible.
If so, help release the files and let the chips fall where they may.
Why are you fighting release so hard? I just don't get it.
I don't think anyone is "fighting the release." The judge stands by the norm of keeping grand jury stuff confidential. I suspect there's a lot of innocent names in there, including victims and perhaps falsely accused people. Regardless, if there was really some gotcha that nails Trump, you can be rest assured the Biden administration would have released it already. I mean, look at what they did with all the other false accusations, lawfare and fake 34 felonies etc. etc. etc.
The judge read through it, and said there's no names besides Maxwell and Epstein in the grand jury transcript. Also, pretty much everything there was already made public in her trial, and DOJ vastly over-exaggerated what was in the transcript to the point of almost lying to the court. This was just a disingenuous move by DOJ to either serve as a distraction, or so they could say, "Well, dag nab it, we tried getting the transcript, but that mean ol' judge wouldn't release it." Or maybe both.
