Khanna and Massie Question Redactions in Epstein Files

Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie reviewed Epstein-related records and said at least six names had been redacted. They called for the Justice Department to explain or remove some redactions.

Left-leaning outlets frame the redactions as evidence of withheld information and portray Khanna’s push as a route to answers and accountability. Center outlets mainly report the lawmakers’ claims and calls for disclosure, alongside procedural details and the Justice Department’s response. Right-leaning outlets report the dispute and the department’s response, while one article criticizes the lawmakers’ disclosure effort as publicity-seeking.
