US Army soldier pleads guilty to hacking telcos and extortion
Former U.S. Army soldier Cameron John Wagenius pleaded guilty to hacking telecommunication companies and attempting to extort them by threatening to release stolen files, the Department of Justice announced on Tuesday. According to the DOJ, Wagenius, who went online with the nickname 'kiberphant0m,' conspired to defraud 10 victim companies by stealing their login credentials, using brute force attacks and other techniques, and then used Telegram group chats to transfer the stolen credentials and discusses hacks. Wagenius and his conspirators also attempted to extort their victims in private and in public, including on hacking forums such as the notorious BreachForums. They sold some of the stolen data and also used the stolen credentials to commit other frauds, including SIM swapping victims. Earlier this year, Wagenius had already pleaded guilty to hacking AT&T and Verizon, a breach that led to him stealing a massive amount of call records. Wagenius' sentencing is scheduled for October 6, and he faces 20 years in prison, according to the press release. The hacker has been linked to a series of hacks that originated from the breach of could computing services giant Snowflake.

Trump's 'Epstein files' problem
President Donald Trump with Attorney General Pam Bondi during a Cabinet meeting on July 8. Trump bristled at a question from a reporter about his administration's disclosures about Jeffrey Epstein. (Photo by Tom Brenner for The Washington Post) Jeffrey Epstein, a well-connected financier, was found dead in his jail cell in 2019 following his arrest on child sex-trafficking charges. The circumstances around his death, which was ruled a suicide by hanging, and crimes have spurred fringe conspiracy theories, mostly on the far right. Some believe Epstein was actually killed as part of a cover-up; they also believe the 'deep state' is hiding information about Epstein's rich and powerful friends, who they say could also be implicated on sex trafficking charges Trump did nothing to tamp down his base's Epstein fixation during his reelection campaign. He even hinted he might release secret government documents that his supporters hoped would validate their conspiracy theories. But the Department of Justice said recently that there's nothing more to reveal. Host Colby Itkowitz speaks with White House reporter Natalie Allison about how Trump's conflicting messages about Epstein are unsettling his base and causing strife within his administration. Today's show was produced by Laura Benshoff and Thomas Lu. It was edited by Ariel Plotnick with help from Reena Flores and mixed by Sam Bair. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

House Judiciary Democrats demand Epstein hearing, float subpoenas
House Judiciary Democrats are calling for a public hearing on the Jeffrey Epstein files, saying top officials in both the Justice Department and the FBI should account for their handling of information surrounding the deceased financier. The Justice Department last week released a new memo concluding that Epstein did not commit suicide and said the high-powered figure did not keep a list of clients for others involved in his sex trafficking scheme. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, said the administration's top brass – Attorney General Pam Bondi and her deputy Todd Blanche, as well as FBI Director Kash Patel and his deputy Dan Bongino – should all testify on the matter, adding the panel should also subpoena them 'if necessary.' 'President Trump and his top appointees at the DOJ and FBI have spent years advancing theories that 'the Deep State' has been suppressing the true magnitude of the child sex trafficking and abuse ring created by Jeffrey Epstein and his associates,' Raskin wrote in a letter to Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), saying conspiracy theories about the matter were used to 'energize President Trump's supporters.' 'The Trump DOJ and FBI's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein matter, and President Trump's suddenly shifting positions, have not restored anyone's trust in the government but have rather raised profound new questions about their own conduct while increasing public paranoia related to the investigation. Only a bipartisan public hearing at which administration officials answer direct questions from elected representatives before the eyes of the American people can restore public trust on the matter,' Raskin wrote in a letter joined by other Democratic members of the committee. Jordan's office did not respond to request for comment, but the lawmaker told The Hill Tuesday that he had 'confidence' in the four leaders. DOJ and the FBI did not immediately respond to request for comment. The matter has caused internal division within the Trump administration, with Bongino, who previously told his followers to stay focused on Epstein, believing the FBI and Justice Department fumbled its response. Trump, however, has defended Bondi's supervision of the matter saying she 'has handled it very well.' Democrats have been increasingly making calls for more information about the episode, saying the Justice Department could be shielding information that could be damaging to Trump. Raskin wrote the fallout from the memo raises 'new questions as to whether President Trump himself has something to hide, whether he is keeping damaging information secret to protect other individuals or to maintain future blackmail leverage over public and private actors or, perhaps the simplest explanation, whether President Trump and his Administration magnified and disseminated groundless Epstein conspiracy theories for purposes of political gain which they are now desperately trying to disavow and dispel.' Democratic intrigue in the Epstein files has only grown since Elon Musk, during a fallout with Trump, said the president was among those included in Epstein's files. The president has denied ever being close with Epstein and has expressed exasperation at public fixation about the case. The two were captured in numerous photos together over the years, as Epstein ran in high-powered circles with figures that included Trump, former President Clinton, Britain's Prince Andrew and a number of other celebrities and ultra-wealthy individuals. His associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, has been convicted of sex trafficking.
