A Democratic lawmaker who is leading the charge to force the Department of Justice to release the entire files they have on convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein appeared on MSNBC on Saturday morning where he revealed that what was released on Friday was a lot less than it appeared.


Speaking with “The Weekend” co-hosts, Rep Ro Khanna (D-CA) , who has teamed up with Rep. Tom Massie (R-KY) to put the House leadership on the spot with a demand for a vote on the document release, dropped an update on what has been turned over so far.

“First and foremost, what can you tell us about the first batch? I think more than 30,000 pages of Epstein files that you guys received. What's in there? What can you tell us?” he was asked.


“Good morning, let me break some news this morning,” the California Democrat began. “Our lawyers were up all night and we now have a fact that only 3 percent of the documents that were given to us were new. 97 percent were already in the public domain and less than 1 percent of the Epstein files have actually been released. “


“The Epstein files are 300 gigabits,” he added for context. “We know this because that's what the FBI has said, and they've released less than one gigabyte. So they've released less than 1 percent and of the less than 1 percent they've released, 97 percent is still in the public record. Bottom line: they're stonewalling and not releasing things.”


Pressed, “Can you tell us what's new?” Khanna replied,”There are some transcripts that are related to the Maxwell prosecution. There is some evidence related to Epstein's death –– nothing that is sensational or adding significant information.”
