President Donald Trump said House Republicans should vote to require the Justice Department to release its files on Jeffrey Epstein, effectively reversing a position he’d held for months.
“House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on,” Trump posted Sunday on social media as he returned to the White House from a weekend in Florida. “The House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE!”
Trump has been under increasing pressure from some within his party to release the investigative materials on the disgraced financier, who ran an underage sex ring and died in prison in 2019.
