Outrage and legal threats: Trump justice department slammed after limited Epstein files release

Epstein Files Transparency Act mandated full disclosure of all files by 19 December with certain exemptions

Donald Trump's justice department was hit with legal threats and scathing outrage after authorities released a limited, heavily redacted trove of Jeffrey Epstein files in an apparent violation of the law mandating the near-complete disclosure of these documents by Friday.

The justice department's document dump this afternoon does not comply with Thomas Massie and my Epstein Transparency Act," Ro Khanna, the California Democratic congressman who co-authored the law requiring full disclosure of all Epstein files by 19 December, said in a video statement.
