Over the weekend, Epstein survivors demanded that additional documents be released, accusing the Trump administration of concealing more than 3 million files

A Republican senator has changed her mind about the Epstein files after reviewing unredacted documents associated with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Wyoming Sen. Cynthia Lummis recently reviewed a handful of documents from the Epstein files without redactions, saying in an interview afterward that she now understands “what the big deal is."

Lummis, 71, told Capitol Hill reporter Pablo Manriquez on Monday, Feb. 9, that while she previously had said, “I don’t care” about Congress’ efforts to force the release of Epstein evidence, she now believes the issue was “worth investigating.”
