Trump Flips the Entire Script on Democrats’ Push to Release the Epstein Files [WATCH]

President Trump said Sunday that House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files as Congress prepares to consider legislation requiring the Justice Department to make the documents public.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, “House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide.”

The House is expected to vote this week on a proposal directing the Justice Department to release the files. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) said he believes “100 or more” Republicans could support the measure. It is not yet clear whether the Senate would take up the legislation.

The renewed focus on the documents follows a series of releases involving emails connected to Jeffrey Epstein.

Democrats initially circulated selected emails they believed would harm Trump politically.

House Republicans then made more than 20,000 additional emails public, and several of the messages contradicted claims that Trump and Epstein maintained a close relationship.

Democrats whine about “releasing the files,” but they only cherry-pick when they have them to generate clickbait.

In a February 2017 message to former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, Epstein wrote that he had “met some very bad people,” but “none as bad as trump.”

In another exchange with Kathryn Ruemmler, who served as White House counsel under President Barack Obama, Epstein wrote that Trump was “worse in real life and upclose” after Ruemmler had sent a text calling Trump “so gross.”

Other emails showed Epstein discussing blackmailing Trump with author Michael Wolff.

Check this shit out…

Additional correspondence indicated that Epstein communicated with Stacey Plaskett, the delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands, during Michael Cohen’s 2019 congressional testimony.

The messages appeared to show Epstein offering her advice during the hearing.

This is astonishing

During a congressional hearing Jeffrey Epstein was texting Congresswoman Plaskett. Feeding her question which she proceeded to ask.

Following the release of the emails by House Republicans, Democrats opposed an effort last week to make the Epstein files public.

Trump said in his Truth Social post that the Justice Department has already provided significant material.

“The Department of Justice has already turned over tens of thousands of pages to the Public on ‘Epstein,’ are looking at various Democrat operatives (Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, Larry Summers, etc.) and their relationship to Epstein, and the House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE!,” Trump wrote. He added that he wanted Republicans to get “BACK ON POINT.”

The House vote scheduled for this week will determine whether the broader set of Epstein-related documents will be released to the public.
