'They Have the Names': Lawmaker Behind Epstein Files Release Accuses Trump DOJ of a Cover Up [View all]

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), one of the lawmakers behind the push to release the Jeffrey Epstein files, raged at the Trump Justice Department on Tuesday for not releasing FBI “interview files” that include the “names of other men” accused of sexual misconduct.

“This is what it’s all about—the FBI interviews with the survivors. You know what is appalling? You’ve got Justice releasing the names of survivors. They’re literally releasing the names of survivors, which they’re not allowed to do by law, but they’re now releasing the FBI interview files with those same survivors,” Khanna fumed, adding:

And the FBI interview files have the names of other men. They have the names of the Wall Street tycoons, the politicians who visited Epstein’s rape island and who either engaged in the rape of these underage girls or covered it up.

How do I know? Because I’ve talked to the survivors. I’ve talked to the survivors’ lawyers who were at the FBI interviews, who gave these names. We’re saying release them. But you have the Department of Justice more concerned with protecting the reputations of these men than they are protecting the reputation of these survivors. So, you know, I hope everyone listens to your 90 seconds, because that’s what it’s all about.
