In today’s episode of HARD LEFT, we dig into one of the most blatant examples of institutional gaslighting we’ve seen this year — the Department of Justice and FBI now claim they have no files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Yes, you read that right. After years of raids, seized hard drives, evidence lockers, flight logs, and survivor testimony, the agencies tasked with uncovering the truth are suddenly saying: “Sorry, no idea what you’re talking about.”
This isn’t a clerical error. This is an intentional erasure — a carefully coordinated protection racket for the wealthy and well-connected. While working-class people are surveilled, criminalized, and over-policed for petty offenses, the elite can apparently traffic children, appear on flight logs to private pedophile islands, and still enjoy full immunity from scrutiny. We break down how this story has morphed over time — from sealed lists “for victim protection,” to outright denials that any such lists even exist — and how people like former Florida AG Pam Bondi once bragged about having the list on her desk. Now? Crickets.
This episode is about more than Epstein. It’s about how the state shields its predators. It’s about how justice is applied unequally — one set of rules for the poor, and another for the powerful. It’s about the quiet normalization of elite impunity, where billionaires and politicians are held to no standard whatsoever. And it’s about the survivors — the ones who risked everything to come forward, only to be met with silence, erasure, and bullshit from the very institutions that claim to protect them.
If you’re tired of the cover-ups, the elite complicity, and the media’s sudden memory loss whenever the Epstein name comes up, this episode’s for you.
We don’t let this story die. We don’t move on. We organize. We agitate. And we shine a spotlight on every dark corner they try to hide behind.
