GOP Derails Second Democrat Effort To Unearth Epstein Files

House Republicans on Tuesday afternoon moved to block a second effort from the chamber’s Democrats to force a vote on releasing materials related to the late convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.

Lawmakers voted along party lines against permitting Democrats to offer an amendment to force Attorney General Pam Bondi to publish any “records and evidence” regarding the federal government’s investigation into and incarceration of Epstein. House Democratic leadership has sought to put GOP lawmakers in politically uncharted territory by making them choose between compelling the Trump administration to release all records related to Epstein or deferring to the president’s judgement about which contents to make public on his timeline.

Republican lawmakers, even those who have advocated for the release of the Epstein files, voted against allowing a vote on Democratic California Rep. Ro Khanna’s amendment to release the Epstein files within 30 days of the measure’s enactment. The amendment would have been attached to Senate-passed crypto legislation under consideration in the House, which could have jeopardized the bill’s chances of becoming law.

“It’s just politics, it’s not about protecting little children,” Republican Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett told Axios, referring to the amendment. “And that ticks me off.”

The failed effort follows an unsuccessful vote on Khanna’s amendment in the House Rules Committee Monday evening. Just one House Republican, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, joined with Democrats to adopt the amendment. Norman, however, voted against allowing a floor vote on the same amendment.

Top Trump Officials Admit They’re Pissed At How The Epstein Story Was Handled

Top administration officials admitted to the Daily Caller that they are upset with the way the investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein files was handled and explained some of the missteps made along the way.

Coming off the July 4 holiday weekend on Sunday night, Axios published a memo from the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announcing that their investigation found no evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein maintained a “client list” or was murdered. It was an abrupt shock to the president’s base, especially after Attorney General Pam Bondi previously acknowledged that she was reviewing a “client list” and a group of MAGA social media influencers received a “Phase 1” binder of the Epstein files.

Administration officials say they are frustrated and feel like the DOJ dropped the ball by over representing how much evidence they had to take down Epstein’s alleged child trafficking ring.

“You can arrest all the drug leaders and cartel leaders, but people want closure on this case, and the Attorney General must find a better way to reconcile that,” one official told the Caller about the public response to Sunday’s announcement.

Senior administration officials also expressed confusion to the Caller on whether the Epstein case was truly “closed” after the memo went out. One source said the memo from the DOJ read like the case was closed, but noted that there are still sealed documents in various ongoing cases.

FBI Director Kash Patel Responds to Controversy Surrounding Epstein Files

Director of the FBI Kash Patel broke his silence on Saturday over the controversy surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files, asserting that related “conspiracy theories just aren’t true.”

The Department of Justice (DOJ) recently announced there was no evidence to prove that Epstein had a client list, had blackmailed powerful people, or had been murdered. The revelations have come under fire from some politicos and others online who suggest government officials are not revealing the full trust or misled the public with past statements.

Additionally, it’s been rumored that Patel, along with FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, do not want to work with Attorney General Pam Bondi and were considering leaving if she remains at her post.

“The conspiracy theories just aren’t true, never have been,” Patel said Saturday on X. “It’s an honor to serve the President of the United States [Donald Trump] — and I’ll continue to do so for as long as he calls on me.”

Patel has said numerous times publicly that he believes Epstein committed suicide in the Metropolitan Detention Center. (Read more from “FBI Director Kash Patel Responds to Controversy Surrounding Epstein Files” HERE)

Trump Issues Lengthy Statement Defending Pam Bondi

President Donald Trump posted a lengthy statement Saturday on Truth Social defending former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and criticizing renewed public interest in Jeffrey Epstein-related documents.

Trump praised Bondi’s work and accused political opponents and some of his own allies of focusing too much attention on Epstein. “We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s happening,” Trump wrote, calling the current administration “PERFECT” and condemning what he called “selfish people” trying to undermine it.

Trump reiterated longstanding criticisms of figures from past Democratic administrations — including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, and John Brennan — tying them to what he described as a fabricated dossier and “Radical Left inspired Documents on Jeffrey Epstein.”

“If there was ANYTHING in there that could have hurt the MAGA Movement, why didn’t they use it?” he asked. (Read more from “Trump Issues Lengthy Statement Defending Pam Bondi” HERE)

‘I Know the Names’: Epstein Files ‘Being Suppressed to Protect Individuals,’ Claims Alan Dershowitz — Who Once Represented the Evil Sicko

Alan Dershowitz has made a stunning revelation about the mysterious Jeffrey Epstein client list amid accusations of a cover-up from President Donald Trump’s administration, RadarOnline.com can reveal.

The famed Harvard Law School professor emeritus, who once served on Epstein’s legal team, claimed he’s personally viewed documents connected to the late convicted pedophile and alleged the files are being “suppressed” to “protect individuals.”

Dershowitz dropped the bombshell claim while speaking with former Trump White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer on his podcast.

He told Spicer: “Documents are being suppressed to protect individuals.

“I know the names of the individuals. I know why they’re being suppressed. I know who’s suppressing them.”

Despite his apparent wealth of knowledge regarding the Epstein files, Dershowitz said he’s “bound by confidentiality from a judge and cases” and cannot divulge details on what he knows.

Fox News Regular Suggests Trump Is Protecting People Named in the Epstein List: ‘Something Has Changed’

Fox News regular guest Victor Davis Hanson suggested on Wednesday that President Donald Trump was protecting people named in the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s list after being pressured not to release the Epstein files.

During an interview with Hanson on Wednesday, The Blaze founder Glenn Beck criticized the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files.

“This was just handled so poorly,” said Beck. “And the president doesn’t seem to understand that there are a lot of people who really support him that are like, ‘Wait, I’m with you, I just want to know for sure that we are actually doing everything that we can to root out the deep state and that people, they do go to jail if they did wrong.’”

After Beck asked Hanson why Epstein’s alleged elite blackmail operation wasn’t “being exposed,” Hanson replied:

I think there are people in the establishment– I don’t know if they partook in his sick things he was doing, but they fear– they have some association with him and they gave him money to invest when there was no reason to hire someone like that. There were much better financial gurus but he got half a billion dollars somehow from people who were mainstream establishmentarians on the basis that he was going to blackmail them.

I think that’s how he made his money, and I think those names are numerous, and I think the Trump administration thought, “Well, we’re gonna release this and there’s some crazy people that we don’t care about are gonna be embarrassed.” Then all of a sudden, they got a lot of calls and said, “Why are you doing this? I didn’t do this. I went down the island once, I was on a plane, I didn’t touch anybody, and now you’re gonna release my name.”

Top Dems Suddenly Demand Epstein Files, Allege Cover-up of Trump Involvement

In what some might call a Johnny-come-lately move, congressional Democrats are calling on U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to release the Jeffrey Epstein files – because they supposedly mention President Trump.

The demand letter arrived Tuesday, the same day Trump upbraided a reporter asking about the Epstein files during a Cabinet meeting before allowing Bondi to respond. For days now, Trump supporters have condemned the attorney general for releasing a two-page memo Sunday claiming there is no Epstein “client list” and that there is no question he commit suicide in jail.

As reported by the Daily Caller, Democratic Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin, ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, and Democratic New York Rep. Dan Goldman led Committee Democrats in a letter demanding that Bondi release any Epstein-related evidence allegedly referencing Trump that the Department of Justice (DOJ) and FBI have withheld.

The letter charged that Bondi’s conduct was “worrisome” and that the DOJ was potentially being employed to cover up wrongdoing by the president, “including information allegedly contained in the Epstein files.”

“In February 2025, you came under intense public criticism after releasing the ‘first phase’ of roughly 200 pages of the Epstein files that consisted largely of information that was already public,” the lawmakers wrote, adding that Bondi reportedly redirected hundreds of FBI agents to review the files.

Epstein Decision Threatens Trump’s Presidency: Here’s What Needs to Be Done

I need to warn President Trump about trouble brewing that threatens his presidency, legacy and the future of MAGA. . . I’m referring to the announcement that there is no Epstein list.

I’m sorry, but no one is buying it. It looks silly. It looks arrogant. It looks like a cover-up. It looks like President Trump is protecting evil leaders in D.C. – who are being blackmailed by the Deep State. This is serious.

Many of President Trump’s biggest supporters are angry, shocked and disillusioned like I’ve never seen before.

They feel we can never defeat the Deep State unless this list is released. They feel this is a terrible betrayal of President Trump’s promise on the campaign trail to release the list. They think if this stands, his word can no longer be trusted. . .

You promised to release the list. Pam Bondi said she was reviewing the list. Now suddenly, there is no list? Your own supporters see this as a typical D.C. conspiracy, cover-up, and the worst lie you’ve ever told. They don’t care about the reasons you have. They want it reversed N-O-W.

WATCH: Epstein Rape Victim Goes Scorched Earth on ‘Liar’ Trump

A former model who says she was raped at least three times a day on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island is now going scorched earth on President Donald Trump after his Justice Department this week reneged on its pledge to release files including names, flight logs and co-conspirators of the convicted pedophile.

In a video she posted Tuesday on X, Juliette Bryant of South Africa targeted Trump by name, the same day the president blasted a reporter for asking a question about “this creep” Epstein.

“Wow! Donald Trump! American government. Your government kidnapped me,” Bryant began.

“You promised the Epstein list. Victims are being found dead. Hello! I mean the whole reason you gained presidency, Trump, was because of promising the Epstein list. Are you as much of a liar as them?

“Thank goodness for Elon Musk for actually standing up for what’s right. It’s funny how only South Africans stand up, because where are the other 200 Epstein victims? Although maybe they’re too frightened to speak up because of the American government.

Reporter Asks Pam Bondi About Missing Minute In Epstein Jail Footage

A reporter asked Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday about the missing minute in the released footage of disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on the night that he died.

The digital clock in the footage, released on Monday by the Department of Justice (DOJ), skipped from 11:58:58 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., which has raised questions about what happened to the missing footage. Bondi said during a cabinet meeting that the missing footage is a result of the Metropolitan Correctional Center resetting the cameras every night, and that the DOJ will release more information to show that a minute is missing from the prison’s footage at the same time each night.

“[T]he minute missing from the video, we released the video showing, definitively, the video was not conclusive but the evidence prior to it was, [with it] showing he committed suicide,” Bondi said. “And on that, there was a minute that was off the counter and what we learned from Bureau of Prisons is that every night, they redo that video, it’s old. It’s from like 1999. So every night, the video is reset and every night should have the same minute missing, so we’re looking for that video to release that as well showing that a minute is missing every night.”

President Donald Trump criticized the media for continuing to give Epstein press during a time of crisis in Central Texas, where a flash flood in the Guadalupe River killed over 100 people.

“Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?” Trump asked. “This guy’s been talked about for years. We have Texas, we have this, we all of the things … And are people still talking about this guy? This creep? That is unbelievable … I mean, I can’t believe you’re asking a question about Epstein at a time like this where we’re having some of the greatest success and also tragedy with what happened in Texas. It just seems like a desecration.” (Read more from “Reporter Asks Pam Bondi About Missing Minute In Epstein Jail Footage” HERE)
