Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA), speaking at a briefing, says the Epstein files contain allegations that Donald Trump raped and threatened to kill children, and urges the press to read them. He says Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche claimed it is not a crime to party with Jeffrey Epstein. Lieu then argues that showing up to a party where minors were being trafficked and patronizing it is a crime.
