Rep. Thomas Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, criticized the Justice Department for being late in releasing files about Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. The law requires these files to be made public, and Massie warned that legal action could be taken against officials.
According to The Hill, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche tried to explain the slow release by saying the department needs time to review documents and remove certain information. But Massie and others want the administration to work faster, especially since the DOJ missed the December 19 deadline to release all documents.
