Trump regime is monitoring lawmakers who view Epstein Files

As we’ve reported, the recently released Epstein Files have shone an unflattering light on many powerful people. President Donald Trump is among those exposed, which is why it was unsurprising to see so many unnecessary (and illegal) redactions in the released documents.

Providing some additional transparency, members of congress have been given permission to view un-redacted files at a Department of Justice (DoJ) facility. Alarmingly, however, we’ve now discovered the following:

It is totally inappropriate and against the separations of powers for the DOJ to surveil us as we search the Epstein files. Bondi showed up today with a burn book that held a printed search history of exactly what emails I searched. That is outrageous and I intend to pursue this… https://t.co/nyZjmHoGUq

‘Burn book’

As we reported, the Epstein Files Transparency Act put it into law that the DoJ must publish all the documents related to the dead paedophile. The law allows for redactions to protect victims, but no one else. Despite this, the DoJ redacted the names of Epstein’s associates and potential co-conspirators.

As a result of members of congress having access to the un-redacted Epstein Files, we’ve learned information such as the following:

BREAKING: Congressman Jamie Raskin says Trump’s name shows up in the unredacted Epstein files 1 MILLION TIMES (it was 38,000 in the redacted files) – Axios

— Secular Talk ([email protected]) (@KyleKulinski) February 10, 2026

The above would mean we only have access to 3.8% of the times that the files mention Donald Trump. Trump was not a victim of Epstein, and so his name should not have been redacted.

More has come out too, including the names of “powerful men” linked to Epstein:

BREAKING: RO KHANNA JUST UNVEILED THE NAMES OF 6 POWERFUL MEN WHO WERE REDACTED IN THE EPSTEIN FILES

Here they are:

• Salvatore Nuara
• Zurab Mikeladze
• Leonic Leonov
• Nicola Caputo
• Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem
• Leslie Wexner

Others highlighted the improper redactions:

Hey ⁦@DAGToddBlanche⁩, I saw the unredacted version of this email, and there is no reason it should be redacted from the public.

Yesterday @RepRoKhanna and I found a list of names and photos in the Epstein files that DOJ had improperly redacted.

DOJ promptly unredacted the men’s names as well as several women in the list that we didn’t flag. The two redacted names are victims. https://t.co/fLLzGW9rR7 pic.twitter.com/DTfK30Kppk

We also learned the identity of a the man who sent an email referencing a “torture video”:

🚨US Rep. Thomas Massie just dropped the hammer.

After viewing the unredacted DOJ files himself, he confirms the redacted sender in that sick “torture video” email chain was none other than Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, the big-shot UAE billionaire and chairman of DP World. pic.twitter.com/6Ny85jqL9y

The revelation that the DoJ is spying on members of congress who view the Epstein Files came from Pam Bondi. Bondi was testifying on the Epstein Files before the Justice Department Oversight committee, which led to the following scenes:

Bondi: "There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime"

Lieu: "I believe you just lied under oath."

Bondi: "Don't you ever accuse me of a crime"

Lieu: "I’m showing you evidence."

I think Pam Bondi’s "career" has just come to an end today. pic.twitter.com/tkIiu3mQVB

Lieu: Pam Bondi lied under oath. She said there was no evidence of wrongdoing in the Epstein files of Donald Trump. That’s just a lie. There are multiple documents that show wrongdoing of Donald Trump. I showed one. A witness had called into the FBI National Threat Operations… pic.twitter.com/hMSllfYjBD

In one startling moment, Bondi pointedly ignored the Epstein survivors who courageously attended. The reason they’re raising their hands is because they were asked to indicate which of them have been ignored by Bondi’s DoJ:

Several congresspeople have commented on the DoJ monitoring their activities:

As I said yesterday, the DOJ was keeping a history of all the files we were viewing.

Now we know why. https://t.co/qi5zVbZ9BO

Nancy Mace began as a Trump loyalist, but has diverged from the president as a result of his handling of the Epstein case:

Yes. I will confirm. DOJ is tracking the Epstein documents Members of Congress search for, open, and review.

I was able to navigate the system today and I won't disclose how or the nature of how; but confirmed the DOJ is tagging ALL DOCUMENTS Members of Congress search, open and…
