Democrats are echoing criticism from the right of how Donald Trump and his administration have handled case files related to Jeffrey Epstein — a change from Trump’s first term.

Frustrated that prominent Democrats have not fought harder, former President Barack Obama said in a speech that his party’s leaders needed to step up.

The report comes about six months after Trump returned to the White House and began taking drastic measures that his administration says will improve government efficiency and protect U.S. interests, triggering condemnation from Democrats that the moves could amount to ceding global influence to China.

The minority members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee say the White House is undercutting American soft power and letting China fill the void.

Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee accused the Trump administration of “ceding global leadership to China,” citing the trade war and a retreat from international engagement through cuts to foreign aid and media agencies.
