AI Summary
Main Idea: Sen. Tim Kaine defended Senate Democrats’ role in the shutdown deal, while Rep. Ro Khanna pushed ahead with the fight to release Jeffrey Epstein files and President Donald Trump changed his stance on that issue.

- He said the deal gives lawmakers a path to try again on Affordable Care Act subsidy extensions after the government reopens.
- Khanna said his push for Epstein records is about justice for survivors, not Trump, and said survivors will meet with lawmakers in Washington.
- Trump urged House Republicans to support releasing Epstein-related files after previously resisting the move.
