Greene says Epstein files handling is Trump’s ‘biggest political miscalculation’

Marjorie Taylor Greene said Trump fought to block the Epstein files release, calling it his biggest political error after Congress forced disclosure of over 3 million pages.

  • On Saturday, the former Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene said President Donald Trump's calling the Epstein files a 'hoax' and fighting their release was his biggest political miscalculation in an Owen Report interview shared by Brian Allen.
  • Earlier this year the Department of Justice published more than 3 million pages under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which Trump signed in November after Greene and others forced its release.
  • In the released files, more than 300 individuals, including presidents, entertainers, and puzzling entries like Janis Joplin, prompted calls for Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to resign.
  • Republican and Democratic lawmakers signaled they will keep scrutinizing DOJ redactions as Greene, once a staunch Trump ally, cited the files as key to her rift and resigned effective January 5, 2026.
  • On Saturday the Department of Justice sent Congress a letter outlining which records it released and withheld, and lawmakers signaled oversight requests and further congressional inquiries will continue.
