Two lawmakers are demanding that the Justice Department release the names of six men that are redacted in material related to late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Democrat Ro Khanna and Republican Thomas Massey were part of a small bipartisan group of lawmakers.
They were given access to unredacted material from the Epstein files,

lawmakers who had called for Starmer's resignation and contenders to replace him as prime minister.
MP Carl Turner told the BBC about Starmer's demeanor in that meeting.
