In a jaw-dropping move late Monday, House Republicans once again slammed the door shut on transparency, voting 7‑5 in the Rules Committee to block Rep. Ro Khanna’s amendment that would have forced Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice to publish all Epstein‑related files publicly.

..... Snip.....

Here are the names of the U.S. Representatives who voted “No” to releasing the Epstein files:

Virginia Foxx (R-NC) Nick Langworthy (R-NY) Austin Scott (R-GA) Morgan Griffith (R-VA) Brian Jack (R-GA) Michelle Fischbach (R-MN) Erin Houchin (R-IN)

If you want to know who the clients were, ask the victims.

Over 200 women have taken settlements from the Epstein estate . The women know who they were pimped out to . There are your Epstein files.

Doubt Epstein was hanging out with unknown back-benchers

Everyone of them is a member of the House Rules Committee. which is interesting to note.

3 are on oversight and govt reform, and 1 is on intelligence.

Everybody should know everything. Let the chips fall where they may. Anyone who participated in this should hang, slowly, Republican or Democrat.

Release the files. What are these RINOs thinking with this?

They see it as a wedge issue to break apart the R cohesion. They have no desire to actually get it out, they just want to continue stirring the pot.

While folks here were babbling on about how this was a trap the administration had set for the Democrats...look at who got trapped here.

The Republicans are the stupid party.

No contest.

I do not believe the House vote can force Pam Bondi to do anything.

“I thought the Democrats were opposed to releasing the Epstein files.”

That was a FR myth from day one—totally wrong.

The Democrats will be thrilled to roast Republicans on this issue—and apparently the Republicans are so stupid they can’t figure it out....

“ There were probably hundreds of people who were interviewed, and likely 99% of these individuals are innocent or were victims. ”

Release it all, no coverups.
If someone was palling around with Epstein but not screwing little girls, they will be fine.
Let sunlight disinfect the infection .

The Democrats have had plenty of time to doctor the list. My guess is Trump found that they included him in it. He’s not going to put out a false list. Now, the Democrats want their false list released.

This is not about anything on the ground.

This is about optics—and Republicans get to look like clowns.

Precisely! It’ll be spun by the media the Republicans are protecting Trump hurting the base even more.

Pam Bondi a month ago:
The files are on my desk and there are thousands of videos that need to be looked at.

Pam Bondi a week ago:
There are no files, there are no videos, there are no missing women or children, and Epstein killed himself.

Orwellian.

So 5 republicans voted to keep allowing Bondi, Patel and Bongino to protect pedophiles. They should all be primaried on that one issue.

No doubt there are “ringers” on the list.

They can be identified and debunked by the administration.

The Democrats just want the Republicans to be cornered into defending stonewalling the public.

The Democrats had a blast during Watergate—and they want a repeat performance.

The stupid Republicans defended Nixon no matter what—and got crushed during the midterms after doing it.

Hint to Republicans: Never defend zero accountability and transparency without knowing all the facts.

If they have not seen the files (and they almost certainly have not) they should not take a stand on this issue.
