Investigative journalist Nick Bryant joined the political strategist Roger Stone to discuss the latest on the Jeffrey Epstein document release this past week.
Bryant, who first discovered and published contents of Epstein’s “little black book” on Gawker in 2015, stated his belief that the intelligence community helped cover up the crimes of those involved with the convicted pedophile and sex trafficker.
He told Stone that the case had been “covered up by state and federal authorities” in part because many of the perpetrators involved with Epstein were “big shots.”
Secondly, Bryant alleged during his appearance on the StoneZONE that the Department of Justice and the FBI were involved in the cover-up.
“The government is involved. There’s a dark malignant corner of our intelligence that is aiding and abetting child trafficking,” Bryant said.
“When you cover up a crime, you’re aiding and abetting that crime. So obviously the Department of Justice and the FBI are aiding and abetting child trafficking,” he continued. “It’s hard to believe and it causes a tremendous amount of cognitive dissonance, but it is the fact. I mean, if it wasn’t the fact there’d be a lot of people sitting in jail right now.”
Did The Intel Community Help Cover Up Those Involved With Epstein?
This isn’t the first time that we’ve heard some sort of insinuation that the Justice Department and the FBI have helped cover those involved with Epstein over the years.
As Bryant states, if there weren’t an ongoing and complex cover-up, Epstein – who was convicted of procuring for prostitution a girl below the age of 18 in 2008 and was facing sex trafficking charges until he died allegedly by suicide in a Manhattan jail cell in 2019 – and Ghislaine Maxwell – who is currently serving 20 years in prison for her involvement in the late billionaire pedophile’s crimes – wouldn’t be the only people who served prison time for these crimes against children.
Representative Tim Burchett (R-TN) echoed Bryant’s comments prior to the Jeffrey Epstein document release, adding that the intelligence community and members of Congress are “compromised” into not providing public information on the notorious sex predator.
After stating his assertion that he is “one hundred percent” certain lawmakers are compromised, Burchett proceeded to slam “unelected bureaucrats” in the intelligence community who have, in his estimation, taken part in other efforts to keep information out of the public square.
The congressman claimed “somebody in power” had Epstein killed as a “diversion” to take focus off of former President Bill Clinton.

Calls For A Truth And Reconciliation Commission
Clinton is the most prominent name to have appeared in the Epstein document dump, with perhaps the only exception being Prince Andrew.
This is despite the fact that the media, as Stone points out, tries desperately to portray a level of false equivalence with former President Donald Trump’s name appearing in the documents.
“If anything, I think there’s a measure of exoneration (for Trump) in these new releases,” Stone asserts.
Both Stone and Bryant seem to agree on the need for a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to be formed in an attempt to unravel the Epstein scandal on all levels.
Bryant tells viewers of the StoneZONE that Clinton appeared on numerous occasions in the Epstein flight manifests, something that has been well-documented here at The Political Insider, but the breadth of his involvement is still nearly impossible to know.
“We don’t know how many times (Clinton was on the island) and that’s the thing about a Truth and Reconciliation Commission is that we’ve got to know these things,” Bryant told Stone. “We have to know what politicians were on that island, what politicians molested these girls.”
“If we don’t do that now I believe that that behavior is just going to continue and our government is going to become more perfidious and corrupt,” he added.
It doesn’t get much more corrupt than that.
Now is the time to support and share the sources you trust.
