Senate and House Overwhelmingly Pass Bill Forcing Release of Epstein Files
"The House voted 427-1 this afternoon supporting a motion to compel the Justice Department to release its files on convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein."
""The discharge requires the AG [attorney general] to release within 30 days 'classified information to the maximum extent possible'...it is incredibly dangerous that employees of the DOJ [Department of Justice] declassify materials that originated in other intelligence agencies," Johnson told reporters this afternoon."
""We fought the president, the attorney general, the FBI director, the speaker of the House and the vice president to get this win. They're on our side today, so let's give them some credit as well," Massie triumphantly declared to Capitol Hill reporters after the vote."
"In recent weeks, Drop Site News and other independent media have revealed that Jeffrey Epstein served as an international power broker on behalf of Israel and its intelligence agencies."
The House voted 427-1 to compel the Justice Department to release its files on convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, with Rep. Clay Higgins the only dissent. The measure moved to the Senate and passed by unanimous consent, and the president indicated he will sign it into law. Speaker Mike Johnson raised national security concerns, warning that forced transparency could reveal sources and methods and that DOJ employees declassifying materials from other intelligence agencies is dangerous. Lawmakers Thomas Massie, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Ro Khanna pressured the administration for months to release materials. Independent outlets reported that Epstein acted as an international power broker for Israel and its intelligence agencies.
