00:05from the federal investigation into late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
00:10But lawmakers from both parties say the files reveal little beyond what's already public,

00:49Pressure has been mounting from Republicans, including allies of Donald Trump,
00:53for greater transparency around the Epstein case.
00:57Lawmakers have also subpoenaed the Justice Department and Epstein's estate for more records
