"President Trump now says that House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files "because we have nothing to hide.""
"In a Truth Social post Sunday evening, he again called the issue a "Democrat Hoax" intended to "deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party.""
"The administration has released thousands of private files to the House Oversight Committee, but the Justice Department still has documents that have not been made public, including witness interviews."
President Trump urged House Republicans to vote to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein, asserting there is nothing to hide and labeling the matter a Democrat hoax meant to deflect from Republican successes. The Justice Department reportedly has opened an additional investigation focused on Democrats who knew the convicted sex offender. Trump faced pressure from within the GOP to fulfill a campaign promise to release investigative files and withdrew his endorsement of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene over the issue. Thousands of private files were given to the House Oversight Committee, but the DOJ still retains unpublicized documents, including witness interviews. A House vote to release unclassified files is expected Tuesday, and any congressional approval would require the President's signature.
