A group of conservative influencers left the White House with binders labeled "The Epstein Files: Phase 1" following a commitment from Attorney General Pam Bondi to release documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Criticism arose as the released information included heavy redactions, prompting skepticism about its utility. Some Republicans expressed disappointment, suggesting the information provided was insufficient, particularly as it appeared to reiterate previously known details. Bondi had earlier emphasized the need to protect victims in the document release, leading to further discussion about government transparency in relation to the Epstein case.
The unusual scene came just hours after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who was confirmed earlier this month, vowed to release a cache of documents related to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The limited scope of the release drew criticism from some Republicans, including Rep. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida, who leads a House GOP task force on government transparency.
