Trump uses his favorite excuse when it comes to the Epstein files
President Donald Trump responded to the growing pressure from the accusers and members of his own party to release Epstein’s files by insisting, once again, that he not only released the files, but that they were a “hoax” concocted by Democratic agents to tarnish his achievements.
“It is therefore a democrat hoax that never ends”, comparing it to the dissatisfaction of conspiracy theorists with regard to the release of expurgated files surrounding The assassination of John F. Kennedy. “From what I understand, I could check, but from what I understand, thousands of documents of documents were given. But it is really a democrat hoax because they try to make people talk about something that is completely out of words for the success we had as a nation since I was president. ”
Trump’s comments came after Ten survivors The sexual offender condemned Jeffrey Epstein and the sexual trafficker condemned Ghislaine Maxwell held a press conference on Capitol Hill, supporting bipartite legislation which would oblige the release of the documents promised for a long time.
“Mr. President, Donald J. Trump, I am a registered republican – not that counts, because it is not political,” said the survivor Haley Robson, responding to Trump’s comments. “However, I invite you cordially to the Capitol to meet me in person so that you can understand that it is not a hoax. We are real human beings. It is a real trauma.”
THE InvoiceThe Epstein File Transparency Act, co-written by the Republican representative Massie and the Democrat representative Mo Khanna, put weasel President Mike Johnson in a difficult situation, forcing him to rush for apologies To slow it down a vote on the issue.
Massie and Khanna also introduced a discharge petition to get around Johnson and force a vote. Nancy Mace representatives, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert are among the Republicans who have signed the exit petition, which needs 218 votes to pass. If the 212 Democrats sign the petition, only two other GOP signatures are necessary to trigger a vote.
During a closed -door meeting on Wednesday, Johnson would have “invited” Republicans do not sign the petition.
