another very disturbing finding in what has been released thus far in the Epstein files and you know it's only been a very small percentage of files that have been released. It turns out that back in 2018, 2019, Donald Trump's DOJ based on what we're reading seems to have been engaged in spying of the main journalist who was breaking the big Epstein bomb shells. Julie K. Brown who was writing for the Miami Herald is credited for reopening investigations into Jeffrey Epstein with her exposés that were published under the title Perversion of Justice in 2018 and 2019. Ultimately, when prosecutors charged Epstein in July 2019, they credited the investigative journalism work people like Julie K. Brown. But behind the scenes, it seems that Trump's DOJ and FBI were spying on her. They were monitoring her movements and her flights, even her maiden name, which she said she rarely if ever uses in any public setting. The DOJ and FBI were watching her movements. Why would they be watching her movements? And then there's still some additional information here that is redacted. Julie K. Brown is horrified. The Democrats in the House Oversight Committee are demanding answers right now. Julie K. Brown posted the following this weekend. Does somebody at the DOJ want to tell me why my American Airlines booking information and flights in July 2019 are part of the Epstein files attached to a grand jury subpoena as the flight itinerary includes my maiden name. And I did book this flight. Why was the DOJ monitoring me? Laura Rosen says this is disturbing. So the top reporter on the Epstein case, this occurred during the first Trump regime. A month before Epstein was found, hanged, the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee just posted the following. The Department of Justice needs to explain why travel information and booking itineraries for a journalist are in the Epstein files. Now, Julie K. Brown explained that. Of course, she expected her name to come up in some areas of the Epstein files from see was the person breaking the big stories. But she never expected that her movements before the DOJ ultimately indicted Epstein. And before Epstein allegedly died by suicide, that she was being followed and spied on by Donald Trump's DOJ at that time. It should be noted as well. She's still doing incredible reporting on Epstein. Just the other day, she brought up the following email. Again, that was part of this small amount of files that the DOJ has released and it's heavily redacted. She posted the following. This was just the other day. This photo of Donald Trump and Gilean Maxwell that was found on Steve Bannon's cell phone should be made public. There are prosecutors who are talking to each other in a heavily redacted email. And the photo is redacted as well. And the email between these prosecutors says the following. GM photo on Bannon phone, Gilean Maxwell on Bannon phone. Hi, redacted. Why is that redacted? I hope you're well. I'm helping out with the responsiveness review for WBTW. And I've been looking through that's the we build the wall federal prosecution. And there was a state prosecution as well. I've been looking through Steve Bannon's iPhone cell phone on cell bright, his iPhone seven on cell bright. As I was going through the images from that phone, I found an image of Trump and Gilean Maxwell on Bannon's phone. See screenshot from cell bright attached. I discussed with Sonny and we wanted to flag this for you in case it was of any importance to you since you are on bulk cases. Please let me know if you'd like anything further done with this. Thanks so much. There is zero justification for this photo to be redacted. And that's what Julie K Brown said. Now going back to Julie Brown's reporting for the Miami Herald, the series of her reports are compiled under the heading perversion of justice. And back on November 28, 2018, and that period of time, she was writing stories like this. How a future Trump cabinet member gave a serial sex abuser the deal of a lifetime. That broke the story about the sweetheart deal that Alex Acosta gave to Epstein when Acosta was the United States attorney, the top federal prosecutor for the Southern District of Florida in 2007. Here's another article from Julie K Brown cops work to put serial sex abuser in prison. Prosecutors work to cut him a break. Yet again, she broke massive stories like that. How about this one? For years, Jeffrey Epstein abused teen girls, police say, here is a timeline of his case. She spoke to dozens and dozens of 100 plus victims. And she in painstaking detail was telling their stories. She brought it back to the forefront. And that ultimately led to Epstein being prosecuted again, all the while Trump's DOJ was spying on her. By the way, she published a book called
