Commentary: In America's hardest-fought congressional district, voters agree: Release the Epstein files
Briefly

Angie Zamora, an Army veteran, criticizes Trump for issues relating to women's rights and law enforcement priorities, while Phaidra Medeiros supports Trump's leadership over Biden. Despite their differing opinions on Trump, both express the importance of requiring the government to disclose information on Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. Zamora accuses Trump of backtracking on his promises to release Epstein's files, a sentiment echoed by Medeiros, who argues that Republicans have changed their stance since taking control of the Justice Department. They both agree that if Trump is involved in the Epstein case, he must be held accountable.
Zamora expressed frustration with the government's focus on detaining farm workers instead of violent criminals, criticizing laws against women’s rights under Trump. Medeiros, however, supports Trump's leadership over Biden, believing the latter was unfit for office.
Both Zamora and Medeiros agree on the necessity for the government to release all information related to Jeffrey Epstein, stressing that Trump once campaigned on this issue yet seems to avoid it now.
Medeiros pointed out that Trump and the Republicans previously emphasized the need to unseal Epstein records, but have now shifted their stance since gaining power, suggesting a discrepancy in their actions.
Reflecting on the implications of Epstein's case, Medeiros noted that if Trump is implicated due to his connections with Epstein, he should face consequences for his involvement.
