Congress Votes to Release Epstein Files

1. Legislative Action and Presidential Approval
   • The U.S. House voted 427–1 to release Epstein-related documents, followed by unanimous Senate approval.
   • President Donald Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, requiring the DOJ to release unclassified records and declassify materials where possible within 30 days.
   • Trump publicly celebrated the signing, calling prior criticism a “Democratic hoax” and asserting his administration has nothing to hide.

1. Political Backfire Narrative

   • The documents expose Democratic ties to Epstein, calling it “one of the biggest political backfires in modern history.”

1. Legal and Investigative Angle
   • Suggests the DOJ is examining Epstein’s connections to high-profile Democrats.
   • References subpoenas issued to the Clintons and eight other individuals.
