Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna are optimistic about forcing the Justice Department to release all unredacted files related to Jeffrey Epstein. They claim to have enough votes to compel a House vote on the matter, despite potential opposition in the Senate and concerns about the Justice Department scrubbing information. Khanna noted that the files have already been seen by government officials and Epstein accusers’ lawyers, making it more difficult to sanitize them. The push for release comes after the Justice Department stated it had not uncovered a list of Epstein’s clients, which sparked political debate.

Democrats are anticipated to gain enough votes in the House to force the release of federal files related to Jeffrey Epstein. This comes from upcoming special elections where Democratic candidates in deep-blue districts have vowed to sign a petition that would compel the vote. While the push for the bill is led by Rep. Thomas Massie, the Speaker of the House and the White House are discouraging additional Republican support and favoring the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into the matter. Massie, however, argues the investigation is inadequate, accusing the Trump administration of selectively redacting and curating released documents.

The reports of Eric Adams’ potential exit from the political scene are unsurprising, given his past association with Donald Trump and the dismissal of his corruption case by the Justice Department. This favor, however, has not shielded Adams from further controversy, as his former advisors and liaisons face corruption charges, and former NYPD officers are suing him. This situation has led to a decline in his campaign’s popularity, with recent polls placing him in a distant third place. Meanwhile, Andrew Cuomo has also shown signs of courting Trump, seeking rhetorical support against his opponent.

Following pressure from Epstein’s survivors, Republican Representatives Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene have indicated a willingness to use constitutional immunity to publicly name individuals allegedly involved in Epstein’s abuse. This comes after survivors announced they were compiling their own list of alleged abusers, fueled by the Trump administration’s assertion that a “client list” did not exist. These representatives are protected under the “speech or debate clause,” allowing them to make such accusations on the House floor without legal repercussions. A discharge petition, initiated by Massie, aims to force a vote on releasing all related files, though it still needs more signatures to be successful.

Upon Congress’ return, Rep. Thomas Massie initiated a discharge petition to force a House vote on the release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein, following up on legislation introduced in July that aimed to mandate the Justice Department to release these documents. This effort, supported by Rep. Ro Khanna, seeks to bypass leadership and compel a vote with 218 signatures. While House leadership added a bill directing the House Oversight Committee to continue its investigation into the Epstein case, Massie criticized this move. The controversy has intensified calls for transparency and prompted a series of actions, including meetings with survivors and planned release of documents, as the public demands greater access to information.

Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) called for an immediate end to all U.S. military aid to Israel, citing the immense number of civilian casualties in Gaza.
