"There was a moment in the press conference held on Wednesday by the women accusing Jeffrey Epstein and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell of years of abuse where the roar of fighter jets performing a White House-ordered flyover interrupted one of the speakers. "This woman abused children," Anouska De Georgiou tried to say about Maxwell before she was drowned out by the planes growing louder as they approached."
"But the accusers say the full release of the Epstein files would help them do exactly that be heard. 'Congress must choose, will you continue to protect predators, or will you finally protect survivors? Transparency is justice,' said Lisa Philipps, another survivor. 'Release the files and the secrecy and stand with us in declaring that no one, no billionaires, no politicians, not world leaders, is above the law.'"
Women accusing Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell described years of abuse at a Capitol Hill press conference, stating Maxwell was present, complicit, and enabling. A White House-ordered flyover interrupted one speaker, underscoring survivors' claims that their voices remain drowned out. Survivors called for full release of Justice Department files and framed transparency as necessary for justice and accountability, insisting no billionaires or leaders should be above the law. Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie organized the event while pressing for the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The House Oversight Committee released an initial batch of more than 33,000 pages related to Epstein and Maxwell.
