I realize this is hard to believe, but I’m just reporting what is being claimed. The FBI has apparently uncovered one million new Epstein Files in the Southern District of New York office: JUST IN: Federal agents have just uncovered “over a MILLION” more Epstein Files in the Southern District New York. The DOJ says they are being reviewed for release under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. “Due to the mass volume of material, this process may take a few more… pic.twitter.com/OQZfQML4RR — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) December 24, 2025 I’ve confirmed myself the post on X is real and is from the authentic DOJ account. See here: The US Attorney for the Southern District of New York and the FBI have informed the Department of Justice that they have uncovered over a million more documents potentially related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. The DOJ has received these documents from SDNY and the FBI to review… — U.S. Department of Justice (@TheJusticeDept) December 24, 2025 Screenshot here: The NY Post reveals that it was former SEC Chair Jay Clayton’s team that allegedly “found” the files: The discovery by US Attorney Jay Clayton’s team threatens to prolong public fixation on the disclosures, which have irked President Trump, who claims that interest in the case amounts to a witch hunt distracting from his accomplishments. “The DOJ has received these documents from SDNY and the FBI to review them for release, in compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, existing statutes, and judicial orders,” the Justice Department said. “We have lawyers working around the clock to review and make the legally required redactions to protect victims, and we will release the documents as soon as possible,” the statement went on. “Due to the mass volume of material, this process may take a few more weeks. The Department will continue to fully comply with federal law and President Trump’s direction to release the files.” Trump, a former friend of Epstein’s who tried to derail the transparency law before ultimately signing it, fumed Tuesday about the massive attention devoted to the documents, saying “this is what the Democrats, mostly Democrats and a couple of bad Republicans, are asking for.” “I don’t like the pictures of Bill Clinton being shown. I don’t like the pictures of other people being shown. I think it’s a terrible thing,” Trump said. “I think Bill Clinton’s a big boy, he can handle it. But you probably have pictures being exposed of other people that innocently met Jeffrey Epstein years ago, many years ago… And you ruin the reputation of somebody.” ‘Timing could not be worse’ The Justice Department pleaded Tuesday with federal prosecutors to volunteer to work through Christmas week to review remaining files — despite Wednesday, Thursday and Friday being designated paid holidays. “I am aware that the timing could not be worse,” a supervising prosecutor wrote Tuesday to staff of the Miami US Attorney’s Office, requesting help during the “next several days.” “For some the holidays are about to begin, but I know that for others the holidays are coming to an end,” the email stated, referring to the fact that Hanukkah, the eight-day Jewish celebration, ended Monday. Trump has authorized Christmas Eve, Christmas and Dec. 26 to count as federal holidays — entitling most feds to paid time off to spend with their families. That designation means that working on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday could entitle some officials to double pay. The solicitation for volunteers, first reported by CNN and confirmed to The Post by a Justice Department source, comes amid massive coverage of the files already released.
