A bipartisan pair of lawmakers, Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie, warned about possibly holding Attorney General Pam Bondi in contempt. The comments follow the heavily redacted files related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein that the Department of Justice has released so far.
The lawmakers accuse the DOJ of violating the Epstein Files Transparency Act and are threatening to use the rare but powerful tool of inherent contempt, which could involve fining the Attorney General for every day the documents are not fully released.
