Senate Majority Leader John Thune on Wednesday became the highest-ranking Republican to call for full transparency in the government's handling of Jeffrey Epstein's case, pushing back on growing frustration from both sides of the aisle.
Public pressure has mounted in recent weeks after the FBI and Department of Justice released a brief, unsigned memo concluding their Epstein review, which claimed there was "no credible evidence" of blackmail or further crimes tied to uncharged individuals. The memo's vague language and lack of detailed findings angered many, particularly Donald Trump's own supporters.
