Discussing how Emirati businessman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem’s name was redacted from an email to Jeffrey Epstein mentioning a “torture video,” Rogan pointed out the questionable redactions make it appear as though Trump is covering up for pedophiles.
“What the fuck, man? Why is his name redacted? Why would your name be redacted if you’re not a victim?” Rogan asked in a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience. “This is what’s crazy about all this, like, how can you redact some people and you don’t redact other people? Like what is this?”
“This is not good. None of this is good for this administration. It looks f*cking terrible. It looks terrible for Trump when he was saying that none of this was real. This is all a hoax.”
Joe Rogan says the Trump administration “looks f*cking terrible” as questions mount over Epstein Files redactions.

He continued: “This is not a hoax. Like, did you not know? Maybe he didn’t know, if you want to be charitable, but this is definitely not a hoax. And if you got redacted people’s names, and these people aren’t victims, you’re not protecting the victim. So what are you doing? And how come all this sh*t is not released?”
In one alarming email from Epstein to bin Sulayem in April 2009, he wrote, “where are you? are you ok , I loved the torture video” – though the contents of the particular “torture video” referenced have not been disclosed.

Just one day after Rogan’s rant targeting the “Sultan” – who is not Saudi royalty, but merely named “Sultan” – Dubai’s DP World logistics company on Friday announced he had resigned as their CEO and would be replaced following his ties to Epstein being exposed.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), who helped orchestrate the files’ release, took a victory lap after exposing bin Sulayem’s name following a viewing of unredacted versions of the files at the DOJ earlier this week.
