Good question.

The Department of Justice must respond to a motion from Judicial Watch seeking to unseal the warrant the FBI obtained to raid former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, a magistrate ruled on Wednesday.
Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, who also approved the warrant, issued the order, saying “
This post was part of a special Halloween Homage to Orson Wells.n or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on August 15, 2022, the Government shall file a Response to the Motion to Unseal."
Jumping out from behind the server and shouting BOO!
“The response may be filed ex parte and under seal, as necessary, to avoid disclosing matters already under seal. In that event, the Government shall file a redacted Response in the public record. If it chooses, the Government may file a consolidated Response to all Motions to Seal,” Reinhart ruled, according to court documents Just the News obtained.

Your entire post is flat lies and misinformation.
1. Epstein was not convicted and jailed. They offed him before he could go to trial.
In 2005, police in Palm Beach, Florida, began investigating Epstein after a parent reported that he had sexually abused her 14-year-old daughter.[8] Epstein pleaded guilty and was convicted in 2008 by a Florida state court of procuring a child for prostitution and of soliciting a prostitute.[5][9] He served almost 13 months in custody, but with extensive work release. He was convicted of only these two crimes as part of a controversial plea deal; federal officials had identified 36 girls, some as young as 14 years old, whom Epstein had allegedly sexually abused.
2. Trump's link to Epstein is that when he found out he had assaulted a young girl at his club Trump had him banned from all his properties. Trump was also the only person to help the FBI in their original investigation into Epstein.
Within the context of their highly transactional relationships, Trump’s friendship with Epstein struck onlookers as a significant mutually beneficial connection. In the ’90s, Trump needed friends. He had just gone belly-up in Atlantic City. In addition to helping Trump get back on his feet, Epstein seemed to be a latter-day Hugh Hefner—surrounded by gorgeous young women, bespoke private planes, and spectacular residences, all while Ghislaine Maxwell orchestrated a never-ending series of movable feasts at which Epstein would entertain and play courtier to presidents, movie stars, brutal dictators, world-class scientists, Wall Street billionaires, and the like. And he’d have sex with two, three, or more young girls almost every day.
Trump fit right in. Epstein and Maxwell invited him everywhere—and Trump reciprocated. At one highly selective party in 1992 at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, The New York Times reported, no fewer than 28 attractive young women were flown in to participate in a calendar-girl competition as entertainment. The organizer, George Houraney, who ran American Dream Enterprise, a small Florida company that staged a calendar-girl contest and other events, was appalled to learn that there were only two male guests—Trump and Epstein.
3. The judge was not appointed by Trump. Magistrate judges are not appointed by the president.
The judge is also an Obama campaign donor who has made public anti-Trump social media posts.
-At minimum, he should have reused himself from handling the warrant.

On the other hand, TRUMP was 'once linked to Epstein' too, and this magistrate judge was appointed by Trump.
lie, or ignorance, you choose.

Trump himself was connected to Epstein.
Epstein was connected to probably tens of thousands of wealthy people over decades.
Yes he was, but Trump wasn't his personal attorney.

The Warrant was not Served or Disclosed in Person to neither Donald J. Trump Himself or his Legal Counsel at his Residence . A Violation of his 4th Amendment Rights . Jay Sekulow will Shred it to Pieces in Court .
