'Why Are They Allowed to Hide Stuff?' Jimmy Kimmel Questions 'Unavailable' Epstein Files Linked to Trump

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel used his Wednesday monologue to question why the Justice Department has not released 53 pages of FBI documents tied to sexual abuse allegations against President Donald Trump, asking his audience: 'Why are they being allowed to hide this stuff?'

The segment aired on Jimmy Kimmel Live a day after NPR published an investigation finding that the Justice Department had withheld - and in some cases removed - files from the public Epstein database that relate to a woman who accused Trump of sexually abusing her when she was a minor. The FBI conducted four interviews with the woman in 2019. Only the first, dated 24 July 2019 and containing no mention of Trump, has been published.
