The House Oversight and Reform Committee has received some of the hundreds of thousands of pages of documents around the investigation of accused sex trafficker and molester Jeffrey Epstein — and that first batch could be revealed to the public as soon as Tuesday night.
CNN's Manu Raju posted on X that one person familiar with the situation revealed the committee is expected to release the documents very soon, if not later today.
He recalled, "The committee issued a subpoena last month and has moved to redact sensitive information."
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) cited an FBI whistleblower who told him in July that 1,000 FBI agents were tasked with digging through all of the Epstein probe docs to find President Donald Trump's name, NBC News reported at the time.
"My office was told that these personnel were instructed to 'flag' any records in which President Trump was mentioned. ... Why were personnel told to flag records in which President Trump was mentioned," Durbin asked in a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI director Kash Patel and deputy director Dan Bongino in separate letters. "What happened to the records mentioning President Trump once they were flagged?"
It's unclear whether names will be redacted and any mention of Trump blacked out.
