Democratic Senator Ron Wyden has accused Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche of obstructing the release of a 2015 memorandum regarding a Drug Enforcement Administration investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged drug trafficking and prostitution activities. Blanche denied the accusation, asserting that the memo is available to Congress members in a reading room. The redacted document reportedly indicates Epstein was under scrutiny for suspicious money transfers linked to illegal drug activities, with potential involvement of “club drugs” such as ecstasy. Wyden expressed concerns over Blanche’s interference, highlighting that there is substantial evidence of Epstein’s drug-related crimes.
