"I think it's a combination of factors of people shining their lights on the most hot topic at the time, Suozzi said. He continued: You know, Jeffrey Epstein, of course, is an important topic. I'm sure I will vote to release his files, but that's not my priority. My priority it so focus on the things Americans care about: affordability, immigration, taxes, crime, and health care. That's what people are fighting about, concerned about, and that's what we should be focused on in Congress."
"Last week, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee released a tranche of Epstein-related files after House Democrats released emails mentioning President Donald Trump. The emails called Trump the dog that hasn't barked and discussed how an alleged victim spent hours at Epstein's house with Trump. One exchange between Epstein and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell declared, you see, I know how dirty Donald is."

Republicans released a tranche of Oversight Committee Epstein files after Democrats released emails mentioning President Donald Trump, including exchanges that described Trump as 'the dog that hasn't barked' and an Epstein–Maxwell exchange saying, 'you see, I know how dirty Donald is.' House Speaker Mike Johnson is expected to put a vote on releasing the files.
