President Donald Trump has urged House Republicans to cast a decisive vote to unveil documents associated with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender.
Trump contends that it is high time for the nation to "move on from this Democrat Hoax." His remarks were made in a post on Truth Social, where he emphasized the importance of Republicans refocusing on the achievements of his administration, including securing the southern border, deporting criminal illegal aliens, and safeguarding women's sports from transgender-identifying biological males.
According to Breitbart, Trump reiterated his stance during a conversation with the media aboard Air Force One, asserting that House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files. He stated, "We have nothing to hide, and its time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat Shutdown."
Trump also highlighted that the Department of Justice (DOJ) has already made public tens of thousands of pages related to Epstein and is scrutinizing the connections of Democrats like former President Bill Clinton and Democrat megadonor Reid Hoffman to Epstein.
Breitbart News's Nick Gilbertson reported that Trump expressed his intention to request Attorney General Pam Bondi to "investigate ties" between Epstein, Clinton, Hoffman, and former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers. Trump emphasized the need for Republicans to focus on key issues such as the economy, affordability, reducing inflation, lowering prices for Americans, delivering historic tax cuts, attracting record investments into the U.S., rebuilding the military, securing the border, deporting criminal illegal aliens, and ending the participation of biological males in women's sports.
Trump's post further elaborated on his perspective: "Nobody cared about Jeffrey Epstein when he was alive and, if the Democrats had anything they would have released it before our Landslide Election Victory. Some 'members' of the Republican Party are being 'used,' and we cant let that happen. Lets start talking about the Republican Partys Record Setting Achievements, and not fall into the Epstein 'TRAP,' which is actually a curse on the Democrats, not us. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
The call for transparency regarding the Epstein files comes as a "discharge petition for the House to vote to force" the DOJ to release additional documents has reportedly "received its final signature." This petition has garnered support from both House Democrats and Republicans, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), as reported by the New York Post.
The unfolding developments underscore the ongoing political maneuvering surrounding the Epstein case, with Trump and his allies seeking to redirect attention to the accomplishments of the Republican Party and away from what they perceive as distractions orchestrated by their political opponents.
