When Sean Spicer wouldn’t grant me a White House pass, I had to report from outside the gates. It turned out to be some of the most productive reporting of my career. I’m sharing what happened during my time at Politico, how I found sources without a credential, and why I think the White House briefing can be more theater than news gathering. With CNN, MSNBC and Politico facing a new access fight, I also explain why the press still needs to defend its place in the room. Then I answer your questions live.

Tara Palmeri discusses what we still don't know about Jeffrey Epstein, why survivors say they have been ignored by the Department of Justice, and the mystery surrounding the vast amount of Epstein evidence that remains unseen. Palmeri discusses the missing Epstein videotapes, the FBI's handling of the files, why whistleblowers may be afraid to come forward, Epstein's alleged connections to powerful political and intelligence figures, and how he managed to avoid serious prosecution for so long. She also breaks down the controversial non-prosecution agreement that protected Epstein's unnamed co-conspirators, the role of powerful attorneys, the Florida investigation, and the Miami Herald reporting that finally helped reopen the case.
