The Department of Justice has sent a letter to Congress which includes a list of all the names mentioned within the Epstein files.
This comes after the DOJ released the files pertaining to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Attorney General Pam Bondi has submitted a six-page letter to Congress which details the names of many high profile individuals, including the likes of Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and President Donald Trump.
The long list includes many celebrities such as Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Beyonce and George Clooney.

This list has been met with backlash from members of the public on social media, with the Trump administration being accused of clouding the situation further.
On X, formerly Twitter, one user wrote: āPam Bondi is attempting to muddy the waters.ā
And another added: ā??? Marilyn Monroe (d. 1962), Janis Joplin (d. 1970), Elvis Presley (d. 1977). What is the relevance of this list? ???ā

The DOJ previously made over three million documents pertaining to Epstein available to the public, which included emails, videos and more than 180,000 images.
Democrat Congressman Ro Khanna has shared his disapproval of the letter, saying: āThe DOJ is once again purposefully muddying the waters on who was a predator and who was mentioned in an email.
āTo have Janis Joplin, who died when Epstein was 17, in the same list as Larry Nassar, who went to prison for the sexual abuse of hundreds of young women and child pornography, with no clarification of how either was mentioned in the files is absurd.
āRelease the full files. Stop protecting predators. Redact only the survivorsā names.ā
This is just the latest in a wave of new information brought to the publicās attention as more and more emails are exposed.
In response to details from one email, a major tech YouTuber offered to fund an operation to dig up Epsteinās former ranch in New Mexico.
This was after claims were made that āseveral young femalesā were buried on the site.
Zack Nelson, better known online as @JerryRigEverything, took to social media to share his offer to pay for the investigation into Epsteinās ranch.
On X, he wrote: āDear @DonHuffines, We have reason to believe that there are several young females illegally buried on your current property. (Formerly known as Epstein Ranch) I will pay for 100% of the costs to professionally scan and exhume the remains.
āAs a republican running for public office in Texas I'm sure you would want to help put an end to this terrible chapter of US History. My DMs are open. We can give the bodies the respect they deserve. - Zack Nelson.ā
