"House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform, calling the controversy over his former friend's criminality a Democrat hoax. Some critics have accused Trump of trying to conceal details something the president denies by looking to block the vote, which has divided his typically loyal Republican party."
"The House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to, I DON'T CARE! All I do care about is that Republicans get BACK ON POINT, which is the Economy, Affordability, Trump wrote on Truth Social. On Sunday Republican congressman Thomas Massie challenged Trump over whether the president was making a last-ditch effort to keep the full files on Epstein from becoming public by ordering a fresh investigation. Massie and Democratic congressman Ro Khanna, the two US representatives leading the bipartisan push to make all the files held by the government public both raised concerns about the latest actions by the White House."
Donald Trump backed efforts to release more files related to Jeffrey Epstein, reversing previous opposition and describing the controversy as a Democrat hoax. Trump urged House Republicans to vote to release the files and declared the House Oversight Committee could have whatever it is legally entitled to. The move drew criticism and accusations of attempting to conceal details by blocking a vote, which the president denies. Republican divisions intensified as Thomas Massie and Democrat Ro Khanna led a bipartisan push to make all government-held files public and raised concerns after Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to examine Democrats tied to Epstein. Marjorie Taylor Greene also demanded full document release.
