If you’re hearing right-wing media insist that the redacted name in the Epstein email is Virginia Giuffre, here’s the simplest response: prove it.
If Republicans claim the redacted Epstein email name is Virginia Giuffre, tell your House rep: “Prove it. Lift the redaction. If it’s her, show it. If you can’t, say so.”
And if your rep is a Democrat — especially on House Oversight — ask them to demand transparency on that redaction. Find Your Representative | house.gov
