## Resource

According to the NY Times’ latest reporting, the top advisers of Convicted Felon Donald Trump convened repeatedly in the Situation Room to conspire to cover up the release of the Epstein Files. Why? To protect Trump from what’s contained within them. And one of the leaders of that cover-up: Todd Blanche, who has been nominated/rewarded by Trump with the job of Attorney General. Katie Phang’s analysis of this bombshell reporting and why each and every one of these co-conspirators must answer questions, under oath, about their involvement.
