Original story below, with an update on Epstein’s phone from OMG…

Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Wednesday released “never-before-seen photos and videos” captured on Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious Pedophile Island.

One video tours an island path leading to a massive swimming pool courtyard area with beachfront views.

“Oversight Dems have received never-before-seen photos and videos of Jeffrey Epstein’s private island that are a harrowing look behind Epstein’s closed doors,” the committee wrote on Facebook.

“See for yourself. We won’t stop fighting until we end this cover-up and deliver justice for the survivors,” Democrats wrote in a Facebook post announcing the media dump.

Oversight Dems posted photos and videos from inside Epstein’s island mansion on Dropbox.

“These new images are a disturbing look into the world of Jeffrey Epstein and his island,” wrote ranking oversight Dem. Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.) in a press release. “We are releasing these photos and videos to ensure public transparency in our investigation and to help piece together the full picture of Epstein’s horrific crimes. We won’t stop fighting until we deliver justice for the survivors.

“It’s time for President Trump to release all the files, now,” he added.

Despite claims of “ensuring public transparency,” one image released showing Epstein’s speed dial featured several redacted names.

A video shared by O’Keefe Media Group in May showed the blocked out names:

The images come as the Justice Department is reviewing the files before release after President Trump signed the “Epstein Files Transparency Act” last month, with a release date set for Dec. 19.
