The $3.5 million document dump

The Institute for Primary Facts is opennig the Donald J.. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room to the public by appointment in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, featuring a massive archive of 3,500 volumes, each roughly 800 pages, comprising the 3.5 million documents released by the DOJ.

The entire collection weighs about 17,000 pounds and spans 574 feet across 20 bookshelves in a 12,000-square-foot space.

The display deliberately doesn't accuse Trump of wrongdoing; he has consistently denied involvement in Epstein's crimes.

Trump & Epstein Through the Years: A 390-Square-Foot Timeline

The central piece of the display is a 390-square-foot timeline titled Trump & Epstein Through the Years, using three parallel lines to track Epstein's sexual assault allegations and felony conviction, allegations against Trump, and every known instance when the two men were together.

The timeline is a deliberate nod to Trump's habit of putting his name on things, highlighting commonalities between the two men, including numerous credible sexual assault allegations, both being convicted felons, one dying in prison, and the other becoming president.

Survivors' Voices Amplified

The Institute worked with survivors of Epstein's crimes while designing the exhibit, with many survivors attending a similar pop-up in New York City, which attracted around 10,000 visitors.

Plans are underway to add survivors' names where they wish to be unredacted,with Garrett emphasizing that each book contains evidence of criminal behavior and calling the notion that no further investigation is needed infuriating for survivors.

Empty Shelves and Unanswered Questions

A section of shelves remains empty in anticipation of further Epstein files yet to be released by the Justice Department .

According to the Institute, two factors motivated the focus on documents that link Trump and Epstein: a cheeky nod to Trump's habit of putting his name on things and highlighting commonalities between the two men.

Garrett described the collaboration as eye-opening but emotionally heavy, recounting a moment when a survivor pointed to a redacted name on the timeline and said, 'I'm right here .'
