The cover-up of Donald Trump's dark and disgusting past by his Department of ...

Now we are learning that the Department of Justice is covering up and blocking the New Mexico

State Investigation into Epstein's Zoro Ranch into Epstein's connections with lots of different people,

likely, including people like Donald Trump. And after this investigation into all of the things Epstein did in New Mexico was opened, the New Mexico Attorney General Raoul Torres figured, "Look, I'm the New Mexico AG. The DOJ is going to want to work with me right now. The same way the DOJ has been fighting, might as touch host Katy Fang and attacking and assaulting the victims and survivors of Epstein, they are refusing to respond and cooperate with the New Mexico Investigation and the New Mexico

State Investigation needs DOJ cooperation because let's not forget. It was the DOJ that killed the initial investigation in real time into New Mexico. All things having to do with the main sightest, the main place. I know we talk a lot about Epstein Island. We talk about New York. We talk about Palm Beach,

a mile or so away from where Trump lived in Mara Lago where they would always get together.

New Mexico was perhaps the place where the most despicable. I mean, it's all horrific. You know, in mass was taking place there. And that was blocked by the DOJ back then. Here's, let's talk about what we're learning. Let me show you the letter from Raoul Torres, the New Mexico AG. Here's how Reuters is reporting. In New Mexico says U.S. DOJ, hindering the Pearl before more Epstein Ranch. New Mexico's top law enforcement official,

the end of this past week accused the DOJ of hindering their investigation into Epstein, Todd Blanche blocking it. So this democratic run state, I don't think that really matters.

I think this is a bipartisan issue. Reopin though an investigation into Epstein's former ranch,

south of the state Capitol Santa Fe, where he's accused of sexually assaulting women and girls for nearly three decades, nearly five months into the investigation. New Mexico with Attorney General Raoul Torres has yet to announce any results at all. He was asked, what's going on? He goes to DOJ. Isn't giving me the documents in a June 30 letter that we're now seeing to acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche, Torres said the Justice Department failed to respond

to a state request and February for unredacted files containing names of Epstein survivors,

witnesses, co-conspirators, and other individuals essential to the New Mexico probe in a statement

that the end of this past week, Torres said the delay, which has now lasted 130 days, was unreasonable under any rule of reason to which the DOJ response, we welcome New Mexico undertaking additional investigation of the Zoro Ranch, and we stand ready to provide necessary assistance with New Mexico's investigation. We'll talk as cheap in the letter that was sent by New Mexico's AG to acting Attorney General Blanche, they talk about the efforts to obtain materials

through cooperative means. February 13, 2026, we sent you written correspondence, March 13, 26, a formal letter, April 1, 2026, a telephone conference was attempted, May 3, 2026, a comprehensive two-liter was submitted on May 29, 2026, written follow-up to acting Attorney General Blanche on June 4, and 5, 2026, meeting requests were made. On and on and on, despite verbal assurances of cooperation from the DOJ access to the requested records has not been

granted. We want reasonable and necessary information to secure justice for those who have suffered sexual abuse inflicted by Epstein. We remain hopeful that the DOJ will grant this request and demonstrate a commitment to justice for these survivors. I don't remain confident in that,

but that's how it ended, and then it signed Attorney General of New Mexico. I want to bring

and Harry Litman Harry talking feds YouTube channel, former federal prosecutor, former top federal prosecutor, Western District of Pennsylvania, Maine Justice, breaks my heart, Harry. I mean, you and I have reported the efforts of the Trump regime fighting against Katy Fang, the mightest touch host who has courageously been seeking the records as well and the obstruction there, the obstruction they've done with all of the FOIA requests. They're completely undermining of the

Epstein transparency act.

in the most heinous of sexual abuse and the AGs like we've been working all of these days and you

keep on obstructing, but then they string them along, Harry. Oh, don't worry. We'll get back to you.

We'll get, oh, don't worry. We'll do this. All right. We'll come up with a framework and it's all one big fraud. But that's the Trump regime. What do you make of it, Harry? It's all one big fraud, but that's the Trump regime. As a smart man said, Ben, look, this is, this we come the department of obstruction. It's a total commonplace for the for states and the feds to work together,

90% plus a prosecutions occur at the state side. There are occasional maybe turf battles,

where both sides want to go after someone and the feds may be tried to push their weight or round. This is extraordinary and what doesn't happen until Trump. It's reminiscent to me of what's

going on in Minnesota and now it looks like with this atrocious killing this week in Texas. This is

the DOJ, not simply saying we want to do our own thing, but literally shutting down the efforts to secure justice. Now we see this in Minnesota. We see it in Texas and there's some kind of

argument anyway. It doesn't fly, but you can see well they're protecting their own. It's federal agents.

There is no conceivable federal interest to try and it keep the New Mexico Attorney General from securing justice for the Epstein victims in New Mexico and as you say, it's an under-reported part of the story, but some of the most lurid revolting damaging conduct took place right there. So this is the DOJ, not simply not have added please. We're not going to go forward for now

or whatever, so it's all for you. They did, in fact, in 2019 when they were actually prosecuting things,

that's Marine Komi said, "Let us go ahead for now," and New Mexico stood its ground and said, "Okay, you have it for now." But at this point, they're not going forward, but they're literally trying to prevent states from going forward. So it's not simply as we hear again and again when Epstein arises, how they're ignoring the victims, not doing justice by them. They are literally trying to keep justice from being done by a parallel sovereign and circling the wagons. So now you have

New Mexico, they have charges to bring and what the DOJ is doing. It's in a sense even worse than what I've said, because there's no way to justify not helping a sovereign that supposedly has the same goal as you, bringing miscreants to justice, and you have no federal interest and not seeing it done. But they're lying and being squirreling and bobbing and weaving. The letter that you just read from been very properly has this whole six plus efforts of real earnest attempts to

put things together, have conference calls, and the department forgets this one, doesn't schedule that one. All the while giving, this is what really is an extra layer of revolting behavior. They talk a good game, and it's not now so you can say, "Oh, yes, we want to help you." Of course, we want to help you. And then when push comes to shove and it's okay, could we maybe see some evidence that you're holding? You're not going forward with, but we can actually convict.

We'll be right back to you. I missed that call. Wrong number. It's an actual whole chain of misdirection and bobbing and weaving and squirreliness, because there's no possible justification for it. I don't know how long they think they can get away with it, but it's literally at this point well documented, they do not want Jeffrey Epstein's crimes to be prosecuted, but they do not want to look like they don't want them prosecuted, and what that has resulted in. No position in

court, no forget it as they're trying to do in Minnesota, but it's simply a variety of the dog ate it in a whole series of things that just cannot be. This is the attorney general, as you

Put out a new Mexico.

cause you don't lose the message. So somebody at a high level is directing the person who is talking

a good game to New Mexico to essentially string them along. It's completely abusive and disrespectful of a fellow sovereign and completely abusive and disrespectful of all the victims of the Epstein crimes who have gotten zero by way of justice from this department of a truck. I mean, department of justice. This is the Trump playbook in everything and it becomes certainly more pronounced when we're dealing with the reabusing of abuse and survivors of Epstein, right? And Trump's playbook

is run out the clock. I remember when Donald Trump was running the very first time and people were

questioning Melania's immigration status and it became a big issue. It's just an example here.

Donald Trump said, I'm going to do a press conference in two weeks. I'll address it in a press conference. Two weeks, two weeks, two weeks, two weeks, two weeks. Then you do a bunch of other Trump does a bunch of other outlandish, unlawful, crooked, disgusting things. The story kind of moves on, you know, whether we're talking about wars or the wars plural, whether we're talking about, you know, corruption and deals here. I mean, you know, every day there's a new scandal that would make

watergate to quote JD Vance, like nothing in a 12 hour new cycle. And so the hope is you just drag it on forever and that's the play. And, you know, he'll, they're, they're going to do that. And the ultimate question, I'll let you end Harry. He's just, what do we do about it? I mean, what do we do as the Midas Touch Network? You see what Katie Faye is doing about it? That's action.

What do we do about it? What is the attorney general of New Mexico? Do about what do people?

What do voters do? But what do you say about a regime that is so willing and almost seems to enjoy covering up child sex trafficking rings? Harry, I'll give you the final one. What you call them out as the Midas Network does daily, of course, but the attorney general is doing the right thing. Essentially, this is a real, like, if guys, you know, let's try to talk. We're trying to cooperate, etc. This letter, which you and I are now talking about, really hits the media.

And what we have is it plays into this ongoing narrative, which is not dying of the just abject absence of justice that the DOJ has provided for especially the victims who remain very well organized, very much sort of on the hustings. And as you know, Todd Blanch's confirmation is in just a few days. That means that the Epstein matter will re-arise. And when you have, you have a sense of this ban, you know, I do too. It's one thing. When someone is just making

these radical dogmatic positions, you gotta see him in court. Here you have a kind of vulnerability. They are trying to pretend that they're being cooperative. So really holding up the mirror to that. So what are they going to do now? Are they going, oh, we're getting to it. Oh, just around the corner. See you next Tuesday. You know, I do not, they're now been kind of fleshed out. So I think exactly this bringing the spotlight to bear and combining it with the overall, excuse me, scandal of the Epstein

files. That's the way to do it. That's what they're doing. That's what you're doing.
