Massie: Number of Republicans Voting to Release Epstein Files ‘Could Snowball’

The House will vote on a bill requiring Justice Department to release all Epstein files within 30 days, despite opposition from President Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson.

  • On Sunday, Rep. Thomas Massie urged Republicans on ABC's This Week to force the Department of Justice to release Epstein files and vowed to keep fighting; next week, House lawmakers will vote on a discharge petition signed by four Republican signatories.
  • Massie warned Republican colleagues that President Donald Trump's endorsements offer short-term protection but not in 2030, urging them to consider that "the record of this vote will last longer than Donald Trump's presidency."
  • The House Oversight Committee released 20,000 emails from Jeffrey Epstein's estate referencing President Donald Trump, and Massie predicted GOP backing could exceed 100 members ahead of the vote.
  • White House allies pressed back with aggressive tactics as President Donald Trump intensified personal attacks on Rep. Thomas Massie, backing a super PAC and a primary challenger, which Massie called bullying.
  • Experts say the effort is symbolic of President Donald Trump's waning control, and even if the House of Representatives approves the measure, it requires United States Senate action.
