GOP Convention Site Redirects to DOJ Epstein Files

A website designed to resemble the official portal for the Republican National Committee's midterm convention has been redirecting visitors to the Justice Department's library of files related to Jeffrey Epstein. The spoof site, gopdallas2026.com, appeared prominently in search results for the convention, leading unsuspecting users to the federal records instead of information about the event. The Republican Party's first national midterm convention is scheduled to take place in Dallas, Texas, on September 9 and 10 at the American Airlines Center. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance are expected to headline the gathering. However, searches for convention details have, for some users, led to an unexpected digital detour. The official convention website, gopconvention.com, remains operational and features details about the event. In contrast, the imposter site, gopdallas2026.com, was designed to look like a legitimate information hub, promising details on registration, VIP experiences, and media credentials.
