Here's the back story to the release of Epstein files
.
@Liz_Wheeler
tells me the Epstein Files binder “photoshoot” was intended to be a message to the Legacy Media that they no longer had power to manipulate the truth. But it soon spun into something else. She explains why:
“It was our impression at that moment that within about two minutes, we would be able to break the story of the SDNY stonewalling Pam Bondi.
So, when the Legacy Media was so sour and bitter that we had gotten this binder, we were kind of laughing at them. We were holding up the binders and saying, ‘you know what? You've been relegated to the bushes because you lie and you smear and you gaslight the American people. And WE are the media now.’
Within about two minutes of that picture being taken, we were told, ‘please DON’T report on the binder itself or the story about the SDNY until 3:30 in the afternoon, because they didn't want the press conference between Donald Trump and the UK Prime Minister to be solely focused on the SDNY Epstein Files story.
So, all of a sudden, we're in this situation where the press has gotten photos of us with these binders that appear to be real Epstein files. And yet, we KNEW that they were not. We begged for the embargo to be lifted.
It appeared to be a bait-and-switch. And my goodness, that's the LAST THING that was ever intended.”
