"You have only three women within the Republican conference who are willing to take a stand on the discharge petition related to the Epstein files, Balint said. And you have a president that has been hauling those women up to the White House to try to get them to stand down. In addition to Greene, the defecting Republicans included Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC). Blint continued, And the one thing that I can say is that I believe Marjorie Taylor Greene when she says she is here for those women, those women have been silenced for years."
"And those women have come out publicly and said Donald Trump had nothing to do with anything Jeffrey Epstein. And so, why is it that the president will not just go forward and say, let the vote continue? Why is that? Balint confronted Gidley. I'm so glad you found Jesus on this matter Hogan began before Balint interrupted: BALINT: Oh, I knew you were going to go down this road! This is like, weak sauce, weak sauce! This is, this is what you always pivot back to."
Rep. Becca Balint confronted conservative pundits on CNN over President Donald Trump's stalling on the release of Jeffrey Epstein files. Congress prepared to vote to release the files after Speaker Mike Johnson swore in Rep. Adelita Grijalva, enabling a discharge petition vote. Former Trump official Hogan Gidley called the issue overblown and urged a quick return to regular order. Balint highlighted Republican defectors including Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and Nancy Mace, accused the president of pressuring those women at the White House, and emphasized that victims had been silenced and protected by powerful people.
