Following the failure to release all eligible Jeffrey Epstein files by the mandated deadline, Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie are taking action to hold Justice Department officials accountable. They are considering options such as holding Attorney General Pam Bondi in contempt, with Massie emphasizing this as the quickest way to achieve justice.

Experts suggest the EU should increase sanctions, improve enforcement, and address the use of Chinese technology to counter this threat.
