Bipartisan Vote on Epstein Files

  • 🏛️ Both the House and Senate have decisively passed a bill that compels the Justice Department to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein.
  • ✅ The bill saw overwhelming support, with only one Republican lawmaker voting against it in the House.
  • 👏 Survivors of Epstein's abuse were present in the gallery, cheering as the votes unfolded.

Presidential Action and Scrutiny

  • ✍️ The bill now heads to President Trump's desk, who has stated he plans to sign it into law.
  • ⚠️ Despite the president's stated intention, some members of Congress and survivors express doubt about whether he will truly release the documents without delay or further investigation.
  • 🗣️ President Trump has previously distanced himself from Epstein, calling him a "sick pervert" and stating he "threw him out of my club many years ago."

Demand for Transparency

  • 📢 Survivors are calling for full transparency and urging President Trump not to make the release of these files political.
  • ⚖️ If signed, the law would mandate the release of federal records concerning Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, along with others connected to the case, while keeping victims' identities sealed.
