Republican Rebel Reveals Major Problem With Epstein File Docs

Republican Rep. Thomas Massie says lawmakers who’ve taken the Department of Justice up on the opportunity to view unredacted Jeffrey Epstein files are now running into a new obstacle.

Massie, who spearheaded the charge to force the DOJ to release all the files linked to the late pedophile alongside Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna, told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins about how the move that was initially seen as a win now appears to be plagued with problems. Starting this week, lawmakers have been allowed to access and review unredacted documents in a secure room at the DOJ’s offices in Washington, D.C. But the “good faith” offer is apparently not providing the kind of transparency lawmakers had hoped for.

“It’s a room with four computers, and it’s busy all the time. There’s always at least four congressmen in there,” Massie said. “And the main complaint that I hear as we search through these files is that when you unredact some of the files, you encounter more redactions.
