A group of 19 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse has publicly opposed Todd Blanche’s nomination as US attorney general, arguing that he failed to deliver transparency in the handling of the Epstein files.
According to CNN, the women expressed concern after reports that Blanche participated in high-level White House meetings focused on managing political fallout from the release of the files.
“We are deeply disturbed to learn that so many senior members of the administration gathered in the Situation Room to discuss the release of the Epstein files as a reputational problem,” the survivors said.
The group argued that victims deserved “truth, transparency, and accountability,” not political calculations.
Blanche, nominated by President Donald Trump to permanently lead the Justice Department, has faced criticism over redactions and the handling of sensitive records.
The White House defended its record, insisting the administration has taken significant steps to support Epstein’s victims and increase transparency.
