Representatives Jamie Raskin, Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna raise questions about why some of the contents of the files was redacted after visiting the Department of Justice to review the uncensored material
The remaining Department of Justice files on Jeffrey Epstein include the revelation that one of the pedophile’s victims was just nine years old and that a senior official in a foreign government was allegedly involved in his sex trafficking network, lawmakers have said.
Democratic congressmen Jamie Raskin and Ro Khanna and Republican Thomas Massie visited the DOJ on Monday to review the remaining files withheld from publication due to their sensitivity via a secure terminal.
As they emerged from the department’s headquarters in Washington, D.C., the trio raised questions about why some of the material had been redacted by government lawyers.
“You read through these files, and you read about 15-year-old girls, 14-year-old girls, 10-year-old girls,” Raskin said.
They did announce 6 names yesterday that had been redacted that shouldn’t have been. I’m sure there will be more.
I want a full investigation into the assholes that redacted those 6. They are pedophile protectors and need to be held accountable.
Right. This stuff is being setup in a SCIF type facility. At some point you will start forgetting names as you look for more.
Its not like Congress is really doing anything right now though. If I were Ro, I would go everyday for a couple hours and collect more names until I went through it all. It’s not like he can pass legislation right now.
I think they are going as often as they can. There are only four computers that they and all the 535 Senators/Reps are allowed to use to view the documents, so scheduling limits how much time any one of them can go.
Now knowing this, I have to ask who else in congress is using up computer access time and not talking about what they’ve learned? Are there members scheduling time for the sole purpose of limiting the access time of people like Ro and Massie?
It should not be in a scif anyway. Whom put the administration in charge of this information in the first place? Congress needs a new law, the administration can’t be trusted, we already knew that.
