DOJ Apologizes After Official’s Comments in Alleged Honeypot Trap
A top justice official, Joseph Schnitt, was secretly recorded claiming the Epstein files would be manipulated to protect Republicans by redacting their names. This disclosure was made to a woman he met on a dating app, who was revealed to be an undercover operative. Schnitt also discussed an internal conflict between Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI deputy director Dan Bongino regarding the handling of the files. The Department of Justice responded with damage control measures including a public statement from Schnitt. These revelations have raised questions about transparency and political motivations in the handling of the Epstein case, particularly amidst previous criticisms of Bondi.
