NCS’s Erin Burnett was visibly bowled over on Tuesday when Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) informed her he believed that solely half of the information regarding convicted intercourse offender Jeffrey Epstein had been launched.
Khanna joined OutFront alongside Jaley Robson, a survivor of Epstein’s abuse, to debate latest allegations by Democratic members of the House Oversight Committee, who allege that the Department of Justice withheld sexual assault allegations towards President Donald Trump from their launch of documents regarding Epstein.
Democrats on the committee launched their investigation on Tuesday, the similar day a bombshell report from NPR alleged that fifty pages regarding Trump have been lacking from the DOJ’s launch. Burnett questioned Khanna about the report, asking if he knew what number of information had gone unreleased.
“Do you think that we will ever see the files that have not been released, or even the full files, you know the parts that have been, you know, redacted or left out?” requested Burnett. “And, do you know how much that we haven’t seen? Right, how would you describe the volume that we don’t yet know about?”
Khanna claimed that solely half of the current information had been launched to the public.
“I would say we haven’t seen about half,” mentioned Khanna, earlier than Burnett broke in.
She appeared shocked at Khanna’s response, interrupting his remarks to precise her disbelief.
“Half?!” requested Burnett, seeming to mouth, “Whoa” as Khanna continued to talk.
“And it’s the worst half,” mentioned Khanna. “And the fact that we’ve seen half and it’s already stirred the conscience of this country that shocked the conscience shows how bad the stuff that we haven’t seen is.”
At the shut of the phase, Burnett reiterated her shock over the portion of the launched information Khanna claimed had not been launched.
“It’s really stunning, though, just to imagine that you’re saying we’ve only seen half, such that we’ve even seen it, and the half we haven’t seen is the worst half,” she mentioned.
Multiple victims of Epstein are set to attend the president’s upcoming State of the Union address, together with Robson, who will attend as Khanna’s visitor.
Watch above by way of NCS.
