Todd Blanch is claiming now that these will be the last major release.
Question then becomes, what are they not releasing and keeping since the last thing I would expect is transparency from Bondi, Blanch and Patel.

Anything that implicates Dear Leader, like you had to ask.

Emails show US Commerce Secretary Lutnick planned Epstein island visit
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/crmlr0nk8y9o

Quote:
Billionaire businessman and US Commerce Department Secretary Howard Lutnick planned a visit to Jeffrey Epstein's island with his family, emails show - years after Lutnick claimed to have cut off ties with the convicted paedophile.

Lutnick, his wife, their four children and another family planned a visit to Little Saint James in 2012, according to emails included in the latest Epstein files released by the Department of Justice (DOJ).

The emails contradict statements Lutnick made in October about vowing in 2005 to "never be in a room" with Epstein again.
You can never believe a single word R's say. Ever.

Mike Johnson Wants To Spare ICE the Hassle of Getting the Right Warrant Before Forcibly Entering a Home
Here's a quick reminder of what the Fourth Amendment has to say about that.
https://reason.com/2026/02/05/mike-j...tering-a-home/

Quote:
To fully appreciate the inherent lawlessness of the Johnson view, simply replace the phrase "getting a judicial warrant" with any constitutional requirement that you like in the above-quoted statement. For example:

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of guaranteeing freedom of speech."

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of respecting the right to keep and bear arms."

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of paying just compensation when private property is taken for a public use."

You get the idea.

When a government mouthpiece complains that it would be too difficult to follow the commands of the Constitution in a given context, that's a dead giveaway that the government is already violating (or planning to violate) the commands of the Constitution in that context.
