Journalist Vicky Ward on New Epstein Files & Survivors’ Fight for Accountability

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt

As the DOJ releases the largest batch of files yet on the federal investigation into Epstein, we look at some of the most significant revelations with investigative journalist Vicky Ward, who has spent decades reporting on the deceased sexual predator, his powerful associates and the impact of his crimes. Survivors have condemned the Department of Justice for not complying with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which required all files to be released last Friday. “I mean, that was the first indication of the contemptuous, cavalier attitude that has gone on inside this Justice Department,” says Ward. “It’s heartbreaking, frankly, to see these files being dribbled out.”

  2. THE PRESENT ADMINISTRATION IN THE White House NEED TO BE TERMINATED. NOW!! The Epstein issue is not going away until they are gone. Pam Bondi is a piece of trash and should be indicted for her part in this cover-up. She is not Attorney General qualified.

  3. NEVER has pedophile criminals in spectrum been recorded in depth as in USA 2025. Corrupt blatant illness attempt deflection by facism thru war. Madness illusion to delusions.🚫🇺🇲

  4. LOL LOL and LOL AGAIN. The KENEDY CENTER has been re-named : AMERICAN FRIENDS of PEDOPHILES CENTER – TRUMP. The United States funds genocides and is run by rapists sexual molesters and friends and best friends of PEDOPHILES. This is why GERMANY in 2025 sees in the USA their BIG ally. Those who are alike, get together AND MASS EXTERMINATE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF brown CHILDREN WHILE THEY RAPE UNDERAGE GIRLS. The police, the FBI … they all look away because they are complicit.

  5. I can't believe these folks that say they voted for Trump and didn't know he was a dirty rat already. Were they sleeping under a rock?

  7. This is old news and yet Donald Trump hasn't been charged for his part of his crimes regarding the sexual abuse of children and women

  8. We do not have an actual DOJ or FBI right now. We should have again in 2029, and then Trumpy will be put behind bars.

  11. Vicky Ward is as delusional as Trump is now she says she knows him and she's talking like she knows him so she is covering for him because he is so in the files he has done some horrific things we've already heard maybe you guys haven't but she's denying it and she knows better so I will npt be watching this channel anymore Since it's just another cover for a disgusting piece of crap

  12. Donald said he never was on the plane. They so far found he flew on the plane 8 times. Can you now trust anything Donald says?

  13. I trally am so confused how Donald wasn't arrested in Florida when they "realized" these two were doing this??! They lived next door to each other in Palm Beach but our prisons are just for the poor clearly!!!!!! Justice for the victims Now!

  14. The big problem is that the famous names
    have declared themselves "Victims"
    Thus, we will never see GLENN DUBIN,
    BILL GATES, ARTHUR SULZBERGER

  16. Biden had 4 years to release the files and I don't think he released ANY ! And here they go They will throw trumps pic and or name in here for no reason other than to make it look like he did some thing wrong Even if he has nothing to due with this.. FAKE NEWS , FAKE NEWS ANTI democracy is what the name should be. Put Clinton In prison !!

  20. WHAT IF THE TRUMP PLAN IS TO END HIS TERM EARLY…..TO GET JD VANCE IN OFFICE PREMATURELY, THERE BY BYPASSING HIS REJECTION IN THREE YEARS 🤷🏾

  22. Threatening Pam Bondi with a fine is a joke. She is protecting billionaires. She'll probably walk away from all of this with the fine paid and a fat, off-shore account.

  24. It doesnt matter..obviously.. TDS.. bubba banged children also.. i worked as a CO. In state prison. Only ppl in their are drug dealers😅
