Mega Edition: Prince Andrew And Jeffrey Epstein And The Bombshell New Emails (1/23/26)

The Department of Justice has repeatedly argued that it cannot meet the congressionally mandated deadline to release all Jeffrey Epstein–related documents because of the massive volume of material and the need to review and redact sensitive information, particularly the identities of alleged victims, before publication. DOJ officials have said that millions of documents are still under review and that hundreds of attorneys and over 400 reviewers are working through the backlog, but they have also acknowledged that only a tiny fraction—less than 1 percent—of the files have been made public well past the Dec. 19, 2025 statutory deadline. The department further resisted efforts by lawmakers to appoint a special master or independent monitor to oversee compliance, claiming that Congress’s cosponsors lack standing in the Maxwell criminal case and that judges do not have authority to compel faster action. In letters to the court, DOJ representatives have emphasized the logistical burden of the review and insisted the effort is ongoing, framing the delays as a byproduct of the sheer scale of the task rather than intentional obstruction.Critics have seized on the department’s complaints as evidence of willful slowness, selective release, and a prioritization of protecting powerful individuals over transparency and accountability. Lawmakers, victims’ advocates, and commentators have blasted the pace and extent of the release as insufficient to satisfy the bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act, and some have suggested the DOJ’s invocation of redaction and procedural burden is being used as a pretext to conceal politically sensitive material. Bipartisan pressure has grown, with proposals for audits of the department’s compliance and threats of contempt proceedings against top DOJ officials for failing to meet the law’s requirements. Even a federal judge acknowledged the lawmakers’ concerns were “undeniably important,” though he declined to intervene directly. The frustration stems from the perception that the department’s complaints about being bogged down are enabling continued opacity, retraumatizing survivors, and undermining public trust in the justice system’s willingness to confront Epstein’s network fully.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Top federal prosecutors ‘crushed’ by Epstein files workload - POLITICOBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has voted to hold former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress after both refused to appear for deposition in the panel’s investigation into their connections — direct or indirect — with convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and related matters. The committee approved contempt resolutions on largely party-line votes (34-8 for Bill Clinton and 28-15 for Hillary Clinton), with support from a handful of Democrats alongside Republicans, signaling rare bipartisan frustration over their non-compliance with lawful subpoenas issued more than five months earlier. Committee Chairman James Comer argued that the Clintons’ repeated refusals, delay tactics, and negotiated “interview offers” short of formal, transcribed testimony flout congressional authority and impede efforts to uncover potential ties between powerful figures and Epstein’s abuse network. The measures now head to the full House, where a vote is expected in coming weeks that could formally refer the contempt matters to the Department of Justice for possible criminal prosecution — an unprecedented step against a former president and first ladyThe Clintons’ camp has pushed back fiercely, dismissing the subpoenas as legally invalid and politically motivated, arguing that they lack a legitimate legislative purpose and far exceed customary congressional oversight. Both Bill and Hillary Clinton submitted sworn declarations denying substantive knowledge of Epstein’s criminal conduct and offered alternative forms of cooperation, including interviews outside formal committee settings; those offers were rejected by Comer, who insisted on transcribed, on-the-record testimony. Critics of the contempt push — including some Democrats and legal analysts — contend that singling out the Clintons amid broader delays by others (including the Justice Department itself) reflects selective pressure and political theater rather than a clear path to accountability. Nonetheless, the advancing contempt proceedings underscore the escalating tension between Congress and powerful former officials in the long, messy unraveling of the Epstein saga.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:9 Democrats vote to hold Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress for evading Epstein testimony - POLITICOBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Congress’s contempt hearing for Bill and Hillary Clinton marked a rare and explosive moment in the Epstein investigation, as lawmakers openly accused two of the most powerful figures in modern American politics of defying lawful subpoenas and obstructing congressional oversight. Committee members laid out a record of repeated refusals, delay tactics, and carefully negotiated alternatives that avoided sworn, transcribed testimony, arguing that the Clintons were attempting to place themselves above the very authority they once wielded. Chairman James Comer framed the hearing as a test of whether congressional subpoenas still carry weight when directed at political royalty, emphasizing that no former president or cabinet official is exempt from oversight. Several lawmakers expressed open frustration that months of negotiations had produced nothing but written declarations and off-the-record offers, while the investigation into Epstein’s network remained stalled. The hearing underscored how extraordinary it is for Congress to contemplate contempt proceedings against a former president and first lady, yet also how determined the committee had become to force testimony at last. What had once seemed politically untouchable was now formally on the record as potential contempt.The Clintons’ defenders denounced the hearing as political theater, arguing the subpoenas lacked legitimate legislative purpose and were designed to generate headlines rather than facts. But supporters of the contempt push countered that the spectacle existed only because the Clintons refused to comply with the same legal obligations imposed on ordinary witnesses. Lawmakers warned that allowing such defiance to stand would permanently weaken congressional authority and signal that elite figures can simply run out the clock. The hearing made clear that this fight is no longer about Epstein alone, but about whether oversight applies equally to the powerful and the forgotten. With contempt resolutions advancing toward a full House vote and possible DOJ referral, the proceedings transformed the Epstein investigation into a constitutional confrontation between Congress and political legacy. More than a procedural dispute, the hearing became a public reckoning over accountability, privilege, and the long shadow Epstein still casts over American institutions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House Oversight Committee recommends holding Clintons in contempt in Epstein probe - CBS NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The UK’s Metropolitan Police Service (Met) is now “actively looking” into fresh allegations that Prince Andrew allegedly used a taxpayer-funded police bodyguard to obtain the U.S. Social Security number and date of birth of his accuser, Virginia Giuffre — apparently to dig up “dirt” on her. These new allegations arise from leaked emails and Giuffre’s recently published posthumous memoir, and they have reignited calls for a full criminal inquiry in the UK after previous investigations by the Met opted not to open one. Sources suggest that if evidence is found that the royal improperly sought to direct or influence police resources, then the offence of misconduct in public office could be in play.Meanwhile, in the United States and in political circles, pressure is building for action — though no formal prosecution has yet been confirmed. U.S. lawmakers such as Nancy Mace have publicly demanded that any potential crimes by Prince Andrew on U.S. soil be pursued, and parliamentarians in the UK are calling for a mechanism to strip him of titles and privileges as accountability ramps up. The combination of renewed documentary claims, political uproar, and active investigation means that this may no longer be purely a reputational or civil matter — the threshold for possible criminal exposure appears to be closer than at any time in recent years.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Could Prince Andrew ever be prosecuted over his links to Jeffrey Epstein? | The IndependentBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine Maxwell lured her in with promises of opportunity and travel. The manuscript describes how she became trapped in Epstein’s orbit, allegedly forced into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew, and ferried across his properties in New York, Florida, and the Virgin Islands. Giuffre paints a detailed picture of coercion, psychological manipulation, and the disturbing normalization of exploitation within Epstein’s high-society circle.In this episode, we begin our journey through that memoir.   to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Virgina Giuffre Billionaire's Playboy Club | DocumentCloudBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
