What single vote in Congress could finally force the release of the sealed Epstein files and expose decades of protected secrets? On this scintillating episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara Palmeri joins Nicolle Wallace on MSNBC's Deadline: White House alongside Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva and former federal prosecutor Kristy Greenberg to break down the high-stakes standoff delaying Grijalva's swearing-in—and why her potential 218th vote could unlock the Epstein files for good. Grijalva reveals growing pressure on the DOJ to act as Virginia Giuffre's memoir reignites global scrutiny, while Greenberg calls out the sham tactics shielding powerful figures from accountability. The panel exposes how Epstein evaded justice for decades—from his 1990s Ponzi scheme leniency to the Bear Stearns deal—and why victims shouldn't bear the burden of naming names when the FBI already holds the evidence behind redactions. With bipartisan public demand at 81% and even Republicans deflecting to Clinton, the conversation turns to congressional subpoenas, survivor testimony, and the broken system blocking truth. Which names do you think are hiding behind those Epstein file redactions and who has the most to lose if Grijalva gets sworn in?
