Today’s top stories<\/h3>\n

A bipartisan group of Congress members are trying today to force a vote to make the Trump administration release more of the Jeffrey Epstein files. <\/strong>The Justice Department initially promised to release more details on the convicted sex offender, then abruptly said there was nothing more to see. This has been a focal topic surrounding the administration, as President Trump was a longtime friend of Epstein until a falling out in the early 2000s. Some of the women Epstein victimized are expected to appear at the Capitol today, including Lisa Phillips, who spoke to NPR. She says that to her, releasing the files isn’t a political issue; it’s a human rights issue.<\/p>\n
