Schumer calls out DOJ for not providing unredacted Epstein contacts
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Monday blasted the Justice Department for not providing Congress with an unredacted report of political leaders referenced in documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
In a post on X, Schumer accused the Department of Justice of lawlessness as he vowed to ensure all the files come out.
Trumps DOJ has failed to submit a report to Congress, which is required to include a list of all government officials and politically exposed persons named or referenced in the released materials, without redactions, Schumer said. What are they trying to hide?

Its been 17 DAYS since the Trump DOJ first broke the law and failed to release all the Epstein files, Schumer said. Its been 14 DAYS since Trumps DOJ released anything at all with the DOJ doing everything in its power to delay and obfuscate.
