Story summary
  • The Institute for Primary Facts opened a privately funded reading room of DOJ-released Epstein files, financed by wine entrepreneur Garrett and other donors.
  • Investigative journalist Emma Best said the bound volumes hinder readability and argued the money could have supported archivists.
  • Volunteers built tools like JMail.world and EpsteinExposed to make the PDFs usable, framing the exhibit—according to board member Jenna Lowenstein—as a response to President Donald Trump’s alleged interference.
