While many of last week’s headlines surrounded President Donald Trump’s handling of documents from the Jeffrey Epstein case, it was a busy week elsewhere in the nation’s capital. • Growing pressure: The DOJ’s move followed days of turmoil and some rare criticism from President Donald Trump’s base over his administration’s chaotic handling of documents related to the disgraced financier.

The revelation raises the possibility that files related to the case of the deceased sex trafficker contain information that would embarrass the president.
