Haley Fuchs, I'm a reporter for Politico covering Congress.

How much time did you spend since Friday reading the Epstein files?

Certainly there was a lot of time spent scouring through these materials and a large team at Politico who were going through them.

Okay, so at this point, is it fair to say that the Epstein files have been released?

Definitely not.

So the DOJ said they released a smaller tranche of materials on Friday and on Saturday, and they were going to continue to release materials.

What's interesting is that the bill that compelled the release of these materials that Congress passed last month actually required them to release the materials by Friday.

So a lot of lawmakers are saying the DOJ is breaking the law by not fully releasing the files.

They sent a six-page memo to Congress and said they cited pre-existing laws as reasons that they weren't going to follow our law.

If you say the files weren't fully released, what did you spend all weekend looking at?

What did we get?

So we got a lot of materials from DOJ.

We got some photos, we got some documents, but there really wasn't much in the way of new information in these files.

The expectation was that DOJ would answer a lot of questions in its release of the files.

People wanted to know

how Epstein amassed his fortune.

They want to know who else was involved in his crimes.
