Millions Of Newly Released Epstein Files 'Not Good Enough,' Says Lawmaker Who Pushed To Unearth Them
HuffPost
Rep. Ro Khanna argued that the DOJ hasn't fully complied with the law on the Epstein files.
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) ripped the Department of Justice’s release of several millions of pages of files related to the investigation into late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on Friday as “not good enough.”
The DOJ released the documents after Congress passed a law last year that legally required the Trump administration to release all the files. Many powerful figures are referenced in the files, including President Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Bill Clinton.
Being mentioned in the files is not necessarily a sign of wrongdoing or association with Epstein’s crimes.
Appearing Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Khanna, one of the primary authors of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, expressed his disapproval with the latest document release after moderator Kristen Welker brought up that he and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) “threatened contempt charges and even impeachment for Attorney General Pam Bondi” after the DOJ failed to release all eligible Epstein files by the Dec. 19, 2025, deadline.
The release on Friday sparked backlash from Democrats and survivors, who accused the DOJ of not releasing millions of Epstein files despite legal requirements.
