Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said on Sunday he thinks it’s a “big mistake” for the Trump administration to release heavily redacted files on the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, saying the issue could now “plague them for months.”
“I think it’s a big mistake,” Paul said in an interview on ABC News’s “This Week,” when asked about concerns over the Justice Department’s partial release of files on Friday.
“I mean, look, the administration has struggled for months and months with something they initially ginned up and then sort of tried to tamp down. So, any evidence or any kind of indication that there’s not a full reveal on this, this will just plague them for months and months more,” he continued.


Americans understanding subtext? That would require reading and not simply watching TV.
