FBI Official Fired After Suggesting Epstein ‘Cover-Up’ Involving Dems
The O’Keefe Media Group on Monday released leaked audio of Mitch Rosas, an FBI senior paralegal specialist, claiming there is “something” being concealed in the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Rosas alleged that the FBI will not make all Epstein files public until “this Administration is over” and suggested that many prominent Democrats are included on an alleged Epstein client list.
“None of the people that are in a position to answer the questions are willing to do it because it’s clear that they’re covering something and protecting someone or some people,” Rosas said.
It’s not clear how Rosas came to his conclusions or how he made his discovery. But that said, he was fired this week and escorted out of the building, according to online reports.

Later, after he was dismissed, Rosas contacted the O’Keefe Media Group and implored the organization not to publish his comments.
“I am not a government official and was not speaking on behalf of anyone but myself. I was not informed the conversation was on the record. The transcript you reference is a fabrication and does not reflect what I said. I do not consent to publication. Any portrayal otherwise would be false, misleading, and damaging,” he said.
“I reserve all legal rights and remedies, including defamation, false light, and intrusion upon seclusion. Do not publish. l will be represented by counsel,” he added.

“The individual Mitchell Reyes Rosas has been dismissed/fired as of today, Rosas was escorted from the FBI building earlier.”
Rosas, the FBI official, also sent OMG a message trying to stop the publication of this…
Six women who say they were trafficked by Epstein or his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell issued a unified plea last week for the federal government to release more investigative files and pressed President Donald Trump to rule out a pardon for Maxwell.
The panel also refused to back any unsupported claims of wrongdoing by Trump in terms of his relations with the late Jeffrey Epstein or his victims.
Appearing in Washington, D.C., the women spoke with NBC News in a panel that also included relatives of Virginia Roberts Giuffre, one of the most prominent Epstein accusers, who died by suicide in April.
“Epstein was a master manipulator,” said Jess Michaels, who alleges Epstein raped her in 1991 when she was 22. “That was a strategy that was honed. That was a strategy that no young woman, no teenage girl had a chance — not a chance against his psychopathic skills.”
Michaels said she came forward because of what she called a “severe miscarriage of justice” and a “delay in accountability.”
Other accusers included Wendy Avis, Marijke Chartouni, Jena-Lisa Jones, Lisa Phillips, and Liz Stein. All voiced support for making Epstein-related files public, echoing calls from lawmakers in both parties. The comments came just hours before the Republican-led House Oversight Committee released more than 33,000 pages of documents tied to Epstein.

Did anybody see or hear of President Trump himself doing anything inappropriate as it related to Jeffrey Epstein?

Jones, who alleges Epstein first abused her when she was 14, said too many people in positions of power looked the other way.
“There were many, many adults around [Epstein’s] properties that may not have participated but very clearly knew what was going on,” she said. “And they’re not saying anything, and why are they still not saying anything and speaking up on our behalf?”
