A group of 19 women who survived Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse announced their opposition to Todd Blanche’s nomination as attorney general, citing his participation in secret White House meetings on how to contain the fallout from the Epstein files.

Concerns Over Blanche’s Handling of Epstein Files

The survivors expressed concerns about Blanche’s role in overseeing the release of the Epstein files, which they claim was handled with a focus on reputation management rather than pursuing justice and transparency.

Blanche, who has been nominated by President Donald Trump to serve as the nation’s top law enforcement officer, has been criticized for his handling of the Epstein files, including problematic redactions and the exposure of survivors’ personal information.

The survivors stated that they deserve better and demand an attorney general who will use the full power of the office to pursue justice, protect others, and ensure that what happened to them never happens again.

House Oversight Chair James Comer has announced plans to ask Blanche to testify in front of his committee in July as part of the panel’s ongoing Epstein probe.
