Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Kentucky, and Ro Khanna, D-California, are voicing optimism about their ability to force an unsanitized release of the Justice Department’s files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
„We have the votes,“ Khanna said Sept. 7 on ABC News‘ “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”
„I think we’re going to get a resounding vote on this,“ Massie told Stephanopoulos during the same program.
The Republican and Democratic organizers behind a petition that would force a House vote on the files‘ release said they were undeterred by concerns that Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-South Dakota, might seek to block the legislation in the Senate, or that the Justice Department might scrub information on Republicans and other allies before releasing documents.
Remember that we also need to send them all to jail after it comes out. We cannot let a single member go free.

Mike Johnson is hard at work buying votes right now, so I won’t drink the hopium too much on this.
Sadly with what recent history has told us, evil prevails. Pedophiles even more.

A government that protects child rapists has no right to operate.
The discharge petition alone will not add sufficient pressure, and we need to prepare for more aggressive action.
Below is a letter that I sent to my representative and senators demanding a government shutdown until the Epstein files are released. Feel free to copy it and re-use.
Last week’s press conference with Epstein survivors and Reps. Massie and Khanna exposed a shameful truth: the Justice Department is hiding the Epstein files. To be clear, a government that protects child rapists and their enablers has no right to operate. It must be shut down.
The Oversight Committee’s release of mostly useless documents is a slap in the face to victims and the public. I demand you support Massie and Khanna’s discharge petition to force a vote on releasing the full, unredacted Epstein files. Go further: push to shut down the government until every page is public.
The September 30 funding deadline is your chance to stand for justice. No funding, no compromises, until the truth is out. As your constituent, I expect you to fight for Epstein’s victims and hold the powerful accountable. A government that buries this truth is illegitimate.
Repeat after me: Shut it down until the Epstein files are released.

„Being named in the files or having associated with Epstein doesn’t mean a person engaged in wrongdoing.“
Trying to cover it up does.

There’s no question: For the good of a free society, these files must be released now, unsanitized by anyone especially the DOJ.

How will vote for the Epstein files affect midterms for those who vote against it and those for jt?

Wow so only 95% of the GOP are trying to protect pedos
Whatever files are released will be fake files, sanitized of the many references to Trump and Republicans he likes.

Let’s just watch and see if DOJ actually complies. This is a rogue administration, with the support of the most unamerican party in history (aside from the south and the whole civil war thing…)

Yes. They will release the files that are heavily redacted to protect the felon in chief.

Pay attention to how your Representatives vote and then hold them accountable. Epstein Files!

I’m sure there’s a war planned with Venezuela if this comes too close to happening.

There’s not a chance those files come out the way they went in, let’s be clear

It’s much more than CP. I’m sure trump and admin wish it was just the sex to cover up. They sweep sexual assault charges under rug all day. Epstein has blackmail on tons of leaders around the world. He was a middle man and likely knew enough to ruin the world. I’m sure there is information that can reshape entire governments… assuming there is accountability to the crimes.

What is the point? His name is redacted no matter what, Maxwell the trafficking rapist is relaxing comfortably & nothing will come if it to Trump.

Dear Rep. [X],

I’m seriously thinking that any release will be full of forgeries and things like Nixon’s [18½-minute gap](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixon_White_House_tapes#18%C2%BD-minute_gap).
They already blurted it out!
[In Undercover Video, Staffer Claims DOJ Will Hide Republican Names In Epstein Files](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/james-okeefe-joseph-schnitt-doj-epstein-files_n_68b9f090e4b09c6f4cf68efb).
Stop talking about it and fucking do it.
Who are the other 2 Republicans?
