The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) released a massive trove of 3 million pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein Friday, fulfilling its legal obligation under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed into law by President Donald Trump in November 2025.

This release, follows earlier releases and brings the total publicly available files to around 3.5 million, representing the largest and final batch of files from a collection of over 6 million potentially responsive pages identified during a review by more than 500 DOJ lawyers.

Approximately 200,000 pages were redacted due to legal privileges, including attorney-client privilege, work-product doctrine, and concerns over ongoing investigations.

The DOJ emphasized that no evidence of criminal conduct by President Donald Trump was found in the files, despite years of political speculation. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche stated: “In none of these communications did Epstein suggest President Trump had done anything criminal.”

In a testy news conference, Blanche said that the release would include more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, which will have “extensive redactions”. He added that the Trump administration had produced roughly 3.5m pages in an effort to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. He said that they include large quantities of commercial pornography and images “that were seized from Epstein’s devices”.

“The department’s collection effort resulted in more than 6m pages being identified as potentially responsive, including Department and FBI emails, interview summaries, images, videos and various other materials collected and generated during the various investigations and prosecutions that the act covered,” Blanche said.

letter from the Department of Justice to Congress on Friday explained that the documents were drawn from primary sources spanning 20 years, including the Florida and New York cases against Epstein, the Ghislaine Maxwell prosecution, investigations into Epstein’s death and multiple FBI investigations. The department has also filed court motions to release additional materials currently covered by protective orders from a civil lawsuit and grand jury materials from a case against corrections officers who worked where Epstein died.

Blanche said that what was withheld were personal and medical files, documents depicting death, physical abuse and injury, as well as any depiction of child sexual abuse “that would jeopardize an active federal investigation.” He shared that the department will submit to the House and Senate judiciary committees a report listing “all categories of records released and withheld.”

Just before the files being released to the public, Blanche told Fox News Digital that “in none of these communications, even when doing his best to disparage President Trump, did Epstein suggest President Trump had done anything criminal or had any inappropriate contact with any of his victims”. Later in his press conference, the deputy attorney general said he wanted to dispel rumors about Trump and the justice department working hand-in-hand on Epstein.

“What we told our reviewers, is that that was the goal … there’s this mantra out there that, oh, you know, the Department of Justice is supposed to protect Donald J Trump, and that’s what we were telling that’s not true,” Blanche told reporters. “That was never the case. We are always concerned about the victims.”

In a statement, victims’ advocates criticized the release for exposing survivors’ identities while redacting names of powerful men accused of abuse, calling it “outrageous.”

“This latest release of Jeffrey Epstein files is being sold as transparency, but what it actually does is expose survivors,” the statement reads. “Once again survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous.”

The files are now available on a restricted-access DOJ website that requires users to confirm they are over 18 due to explicit content.

The documents reveal Epstein's extensive network across finance, politics, tech, and royalty, with patterns of influence-peddling, financial opacity, and enablers in banking and elite circles, mixed in with satanic rituals, torture and murders. One of his bank accounts is named Baal.

The files provide more proof of Epstein's network included Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, former Mossad asset and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell, politicians (e.g., former U.S. President Bill Clinton, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak), scientists (e.g., Marvin Minsky), Microsoft founder Bill Gates and celebrities, often linked to his private island or New York mansion where pedopohile, sexual, and violent abuse allegedly occurred.

An FBI memo in the files cites a confidential source alleging Epstein was a "co-opted Mossad agent," trained under Barak, with ties to foreign intelligence. The source claimed Epstein's network was used to compromise figures like Trump via Israel, and linked him to Chabad-Lubavitch for influence during Trump's first term.

Prior reports (pre-2026) have also suggest Epstein brokered deals for Israeli intelligence. Emails reveal Barak and his wife stayed multiple times at Epstein's New York apartment, including post-2008 Epstein conviction visits. They maintained regular contact, discussing stays, meetings, and calls.

Barak has acknowledged visits and flights on Epstein's plane but denied witnessing misconduct. Pre-2026 leaks show business ventures like drone companies and oil deals. The files tie him to Mossad-related claims about Epstein's spying network.

Some emails also show that ISIS and Al-Qaeda are deeply infiltrated and influenced by Israeli intelligence, leading many online to point out that the terrorist groups does not attack Israel and reportedly apol;ogized the one time they did.

President Vladimir Putin is mentioned over 1,000 times, with Moscow referenced nearly 10,000 times in the latest docucments. Files allege Epstein ran a Kremlin-linked "honeytrap" operation using Russian women to collect kompromat on Western elites, funneling it to Russian intelligence.

Emails discuss potential 2011 and 2014 Epstein meetings with Putin, coordinated via aides. A 2012 document speculates on replacing Putin with Ilya Ponomarev. Ties may stem from Ghislaine Maxwell's father.

JPMorgan Chase is mentioned in 62,756 documents, including handling Epstein's accounts post-2008 conviction and wire transfers to recruiters. CEO Jamie Dimon appears in 276 files, including 2013 emails contradicting his testimony of no knowledge of Epstein.

Other elites like Leslie Wexner (granted Epstein power of attorney) and Leon Black ($158M payments) are detailed.

Elon Musk is peripherally mentioned in social contexts in the documents in a request to visit Epstein Island, which he did not ultimately do.

Jewish U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, the documents reveal, planned a lunch visit to Epstein’s island in December 2012 with his family—contradicting his past claim that he was “revolted” by Epstein and would never be in the same room with him.

Israeli-American professor Dan Ariely also had a documented six-year correspondence with Epstein from 2010 to 2016.

Emails reference Jewish co-founder of LinkedIn Reid Hoffman Hoffman visiting Epstein's island, New Mexico ranch, and NY townhouse for dinners and stays. A 2014 memo notes a weekend at the ranch with Joi Ito; another mentions a 2015 island visit. The ties prompted Trump to order a DOJ probe into Hoffman (along with Clinton and former TYreasury Secretary Larry Summers).

Among the newly released documents is a 2009 email from Epstein to Roger Schank, a Jewish-American academic and AI researcher known for his work in cognitive science and education technology.

The email, dated October 23, 2009 (sent from Epstein's "[email protected]" address), boasts about profiting from short-selling shipping futures while mocking non-Jews (referred to derogatorily as "goyim," a Hebrew/Yiddish term for Gentiles, often used pejoratively in this context). Here's the full text of the email body:

"This is the way the jew make money.. and made a fortune in the past ten years,, selling short the shipping futures,, let the goyim deal in the real world------from Shipping news -the most dramatic growth has been in shipping futures, which allow shipping companies to lay off risks. The most popular futures are forward freight agreements (FFAs) to deliver goods on a particular route at some point in the future. They have grown, in the past year, to be roughly the size of the physical market, according to Bill Lines of the Baltic Exchange, a shipping bazaar in London that sells FFAs. Many in the industry have been suspicious of such futures, because they have been averse to hedging their bets—risk-taking is, after all, part of the game—and averse to complicated financial instruments that they do not really understand.--"

Epstein appears to be quoting or paraphrasing an article from "Shipping News" to illustrate his point, framing financial speculation (short-selling futures) as a savvy "Jewish" strategy, while dismissing non-Jews as stuck in the "real world" of tangible risks. This reflects a supremacist tone, aligning with other reports of Epstein's communications where he referenced Jewish identity in financial contexts.

The email was sent about a year after Epstein's 2008 Florida conviction for procuring a minor for prostitution, during which he served 13 months (much of it on work release). Despite his legal troubles, he continued engaging in finance and corresponding with intellectuals like Schank.

Multiple emails in tue files reveal Prince Andrew (Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor), interactions with Epstein, including a notable August 2010 exchange where Epstein offered him a dinner date with a “friend” (a 26-year-old Russian woman).

Photos show the prince crouched over a woman on the floor (context unknown). Files include hundreds of mentions, depositions of his presence at Epstein properties, and emails with Sarah Ferguson ("Fergie"). He settled a civil suit with accuser Virginia Giuffre; there are currently no new charges.

The former prince, known as the Duke of York, has not responded to a House Oversight Committee request for a transcribed interview. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer urged him to cooperate with U.S. investigators.

Emails also show Epstein transferred thousands of pounds to the former British ambassador Peter Mandelson’s husband, Reinaldo Avila da Silva, beginning in September 2009, just two months after Epstein’s release from prison for soliciting prostitution from a minor. The payments included £10,000 for osteopathy school fees and anatomical models, followed by monthly transfers of $2,000, with Mandelson himself instructing Epstein in one email to structure the arrangement as a loan “to avoid a gift-tax filing”.

Other emails reveal that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, more commonly known as ex-prince Andrew, attended an intimate dinner party at Epstein’s New York home in December 2010 – during the same visit the former prince claimed was meant to sever ties with the convicted sex offender – with Peggy Siegal, a publicist, assembling a guest list including Woody Allen and George Stephanopoulos.

One of the emails in the released documents mentioned Jewish TMZ founder as a "good friend" who could help run a global PR effort to defend Epstein and smear his victims.

Documents released in prior batches under the act have detailed systemic failures by law enforcement officials to stop Epstein’s abuse and included graphic testimony about the recruitment methods used to ensnare victims.

Earlier disclosures under the Epstein Files Transparency act included grand jury testimony describing how Maxwell allegedly asked one victim to recruit other girls, telling her “they have to look young at least,” though the victim refused, saying she “didn’t want anyone else to go through that.”

Tesla Ends Production Of Models S & X, Focuses On Autonomous Cars, Optimus

Elon Musk confirmed Tesla will end production of the Model S and Model X in the second quarter of 2026, marking the conclusion of two of the company’s longest-running vehicles. The decision, announced during Tesla’s Q4 2025 earnings call on Wednesday, is part of a strategic pivot toward autonomous technology and robotics.

The Tesla CEO described the move as an “honorable discharge” for the models, which helped establish Tesla as a leader in the electric vehicle (EV) market since their launches in 2012 (Model S) and 2015 (Model X).

The Model S and Model X once served as Tesla’s flagship vehicles and were instrumental in early EV adoption in the U.S. and globally.

Production of these models has already been phased out in China and Europe since early 2025, with U.S. orders now being the final opportunity to purchase them.

With this move the company will focus on Models 3 and Y and which has been the company's best selling cars, and the Roadstar which Musk said will be unveiled in April.

Musk announced that the the Fremont, California factory will be retooled to mass-produce Optimus humanoid robots, with a long-term goal of 1 million units per year. Tesla is advancing its Cybercab robotaxi, set to begin production in April 2026. It will be a fully autonomous, two-seater vehicle with no steering wheel or pedals, designed to power a future robotaxi network.

Tesla plans to invest over $20 billion in capital expenditures in 2026, including a new “TerraFab” chip facility to produce AI chips domestically and expand production across energy storage, robotics, and battery manufacturing. The company also announced a $2 billion investment in xAI, Musk’s artificial intelligence company, reinforcing its broader AI ambitions.

Musk emphasized that Tesla is transitioning from a hardware-centric automaker to a “physical AI company”, integrating AI into robotics, energy systems, and autonomous transport.

The Optimus robot is entering its third generation, which Musk described as the first design meant for mass production. The robot currently performs basic factory tasks but is still in development.

Musk reiterated that Tesla’s future lies in autonomous driving, robotaxis, and humanoid robots, with the potential to significantly impact the U.S. economy and daily life. He expressed confidence in achieving “amazing abundance” through these technologies.

Tesla reported its first-ever annual revenue decline, down 3% to $94.8 billion in 2025. Vehicle sales fell 9% year-over-year, and EV deliveries dropped 16% in Q4. Despite this, the company beat Wall Street estimates for the quarter.

Video Shows Alex Pretti Violently Attacking Federal Agents Days Before His Death

New video of an incident by filmed by The News Movement TNM’s team in Minneapolis, shows armed Alex Pretti violently confronting federal agents.

A narrator for the video said TNM’s team — comprised of reporters Dallin Mello and Dan Ming — received a tip that federal agents were blocking a street in Minneapolis around 10:15 a.m. When they arrived, they recorded a man who looked like Pretti spitting on a Ford SUV and shouting at immigration agents that they were  “fucking trash!”

Pretti, with a gun “visible above his waistband” in the footage, was wearing a black hat, brown coat, and had a beard; the narrator noted it was similar to the outfit Pretti wore when he was killed on January 24. He then smashed the right tail light by kicking it two times and flipped the middle finger at the vehicle.

At that point, “An agent then got out of the vehicle, grabbed him, and pushed him to the ground,” the voiceover said.

Pretti could be seen trying to scurry away from one agent before another agent grabbed him and they both threw him down.

“During the altercation, agents fired tear gas and pepper balls into the crowd,” the narrator continued. “They continued to hold the man down before they retreat and he walks away.”

The BBC confirmed the authenticity of the video. Reporter Ros Atkins said the man in the video “has the same coat, facial hair and gait as Alex Pretti and a facial recognition tool suggests a 97% match. We see him shouting abuse at the agents."

The viral video sparked debate online Wednesday, with many critics pointing out that Pretti was a reckless violent agitator who would be alive today had he not tried to obstruct law enforcement operations along with his far-left extremist comrades.

=================

Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. man that participated in the riots against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE|) operations in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was fatally shot by a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agent on Sunday, during a confrontation with federal agents.

The incident occurred in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood, a predominantly Somali-American community dubbed “Little Mogadishu,” amid a surge in federal immigration enforcement operations under President Donald Trump’s “Operation Metro Surge.”

Pretti, a intensive care unit (ICU) nurse, was carrying a 9mm handgun while interfering with ICE operations at the time of the shooting according to videos of the incident circulating online.

Video footage from bystanders show Pretti filming the scene and obstructing a federal agent who was trying to shove and detain a female rioter. As agents tried to detain Pretti himself for obstruction, he resisted arrest.

One agent took Pretti's gun during the confrontation. Apparently the gun -- a Sig Sauer P320 variant handgun -- accidentally discharged. One agent can be heard shouting "gun gun," before the agents opened fire. Pretti was pronounced dead on the scene.

Federal officials—including Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem and Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller— initially labeled Pretti a “domestic terrorist,” “assassin,” and “would-be killer.” Authorities have since started an official investigation into the incident.

Riots intensified across Minneapolis and in Pretti’s hometown of Green Bay, Wisconsin, with thousands gathering. The protests were violent as vidoes circulationg online show.

Rioters targeted federal agents and hotels housing ICE personnel, as local police withdrew from the scene, leaving one agent bleeding from the nose and hands as he faced off against violent left-wing protesters. The Minnesota Timberwolves held a moment of silence for Pretti before a postponed game, with fans shouting “(expletive) ICE” and “go home ICE.”

In a Truth Social post late Sunday, President Trump blamed the killing on “Democrat-run sanctuary cities” and “Democrat ensued chaos,” and demanded full cooperation from Minnesota and other states.

“Governor Tim Walz called me with the request to work together with respect to Minnesota. It was a very good call, and we, actually, seemed to be on a similar wavelength. What we are looking for are any and all Criminals that they have in their possession,” Trump announced Monday on Truth Social.

He issued four demands:

1. Turn over all undocumented immigrants in state prisons and jails.

2. Turn over all undocumented immigrants arrested by local police.

3. Require local law enforcement to assist federal agents in detaining undocumented immigrants.

4. “Formally cooperate with the Trump Administration to enforce our Nation’s Laws, rather than resist and stoke the flames of Division, Chaos, and Violence.”

Trump also announced the deployment of Border Czar Tom Homan, to manage ICE operations and speak to local politicians in Minnesota, calling him “tough but fair.”

Body-worn camera footage from CBP agents involved in the shooting is under review by federal investigators. The footage, captured from multiple angles, is expected to clarify the sequence of events.

A federal court hearing on Minnesota’s request to halt Operation Metro Surge ended without a ruling. Department of Justice (DOJ) attorney Brantley Mayers called the state’s request “staggering,” arguing it would undermine federal law enforcement authority.

Minnesota left-wing Democrat Governor Tim Walz rejected federal claims about the shooting, calling them “lies” and demanding the immediate removal of 3,000 federal agents from the state. In a Wall Street Journal op-ed and press conference, he accused Trump of “gaslighting the entire country” and using the tragedy to escalate political tensions ahead of the 2026 midterms.

Walz claimed that the Minnesota Department of Corrections complies with federal immigration detainers and has no record of releasing inmates without ensuring transfer. However federal officals point out that city and county jails in the state do not comply with detainers.

Former Democrat President Bill Clinton condemned the federal actions, stating, “The people in charge have lied,” and urged Americans to “stand up” against the erosion of civil liberties.

The Trump administration has blamed Democrat politicians' vitriolic anti-ICE rhetoric for inciting the riots against law enforcement operations across the country.

White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, called the shooting a “tragedy” and expressed sympathy for Pretti’s family, but reiterated blame on Democratic leaders for “hostile resistance” to federal immigration enforcement.

Sunday's shooting followed the January 7 killing of another left-wing rioter Renee Good, who attempted to run over an ICE officer, sparking widespread riots in Minneapolis.

GPS III-9: SpaceX Launches Advanced Anti-jam Satellite For The U.S. Space Force

SpaceX Falcon 9 carrying U.S. Space Force's advanced anti-jamming GPS III-SV09 spacecraft, lifted off at 0453 UTC on Jan. 28, from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

After stage separation, the Falcon 9 first stage booster, B1096, returned to Earth and landed safely on a SpaceX autonomous drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean about 8 minutes after liftoff—this marked the 141st landing on a drone ship and the 564th Falcon 9 booster landing in SpaceX’s history. B1096 had previously flown four times on missions for NASA, the U.S. military, Amazon’s Kuiper project, and SpaceX’s Starlink satellites.

The payload was deployed into medium Earth orbit, an altitude of 4,265 kilometers, about 90 minutes after liftoff, marking a key step in modernizing the U.S. Global Positioning System.

GPS III-SV09, a next-generation navigation satellite built by Lockheed Martin, is equipped with M-Code, a secure military GPS signal that is significantly more resistant to jamming and interference than previous systems, according to Space Force officials. GPS IIIF is the next iteration of satellites the U.S. will use for positioning, navigation and timing. (The "F" stands for "follow-on.") The first of these spacecraft is expected to launch in Spring 2027.

The first GPS III vehicle lifted off in December 2018. As its name suggests, GPS III-SV09 was the ninth, out of a planned total of 10, to reach orbit. The final one in the series is expected to go up later this year.

GPS III-SV09 is named in honor of Colonel Ellison Onizuka, the first Asian American astronaut, who died in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster on January 28, 1986—a poignant coincidence given the launch date. Other former astronauts have been so honored as well. For example, GPS III-SV05 was named after Apollo 11 moonwalker Neil Armstrong, and GPS III-SV07 carries the moniker "Sally Ride," after the first American woman to reach space.

'Ellison Onizuka' was originally booked to fly on Vulcan Centaur, United Launch Alliance's powerful new rocket. But the Space Force changed that plan. This mission was part of the U.S. Space Force’s rapid-response launch initiative, demonstrating the ability to shorten timelines for critical national security missions.

"For this launch, we traded a GPS III mission from a Vulcan to a Falcon 9, then exchanged a later GPS IIIF mission from a Falcon Heavy to a Vulcan," U.S. Space Force Col. Ryan Hiserote, SYD 80 Commander and National Security Space Launch program manager, said in an emailed statement on Jan. 22.

"Our commitment to keeping things flexible — programmatically and contractually — means that we can pivot when necessary to changing circumstances," he added. "We have a proven ability to adapt the launch manifest to complex and dynamic factors and are continuing to shorten our timelines for delivering critical capabilities to warfighters."

GPS III-9 was SpaceX’s second national security mission of 2026 and the third rapid-accelerated mission for the U.S. Space Force under the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) program. The mission was managed by Space Systems Command (SSC) and Mission Delta 31, with System Delta 80 (SYD 80) overseeing the NSSL program.
