Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Justice Department would release only some Epstein files on Friday, a move that members of Congress called a violation of the law signed by President Trump last month.

Trump has also repeatedly used these records as a weapon to try to harm prominent Democrats. Preparing their publication, eagerly awaited by both journalists and the public, with documents that harm its enemies would be part of this strategy.

Blanche signals that the administration intends to wage a war of attrition, throwing out thousands of documents at a time to make it difficult to determine context and identify missing pieces. This raises the prospect of media and online personalities competing to publish new details, favoring speed over rigor.

The files come from an untrustworthy source and will inevitably trigger a feeding frenzy. The fact that the Trump administration is using its discretion – and breaking the law – to divide the files into multiple tranches only increases the chances that the documents will be deployed strategically.

The risk that the Trump administration would manipulate its reluctant release of the records was already high; he has previously presented public information as new material, promised to release records voluntarily before backtracking, and, in the case of Attorney General Pam Bondi, declared that an Epstein “client list” did not exist after claiming it was on his desk.
