WATCH: Nancy Pelosi silent on why Biden did not release Epstein files
Fox News ^ | 7/19/25 | Peter Pinedo

Leading Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., says President Donald Trump should release the Epstein files, but is silent on why former President Joe Biden did not anytime in his four years in the Oval Office.

Democrats have seized on the issue since the case became a political controversy for the Trump administration. However, despite their current calls for transparency on the case, the Biden Justice Department also failed to release additional documents on Epstein.

Asked by Fox News Digital whether she thought the Trump administration should release the Epstein files, former House Speaker Pelosi responded, "Absolutely."

Fox News Digital then asked, "Why do you think Biden didn’t do it for four years?" to which Pelosi simply turned around and began walking away.

Fox News Digital pressed, "Do you know why they didn’t do it? Do you think they should have?" However, Pelosi ignored the reporter and stepped into a car.

Pelosi served as House speaker, one of the most powerful positions in the country, from 2019 to 2023, two of those years occurring when Biden was in the Oval Office.

Other Democrats have similarly struggled to answer why a president of their party did not release the files as they demand action now.

On Thursday, Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., was pressed on the issue by "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough, but he could not give an answer.

"But, Congressman, you could have gotten that from '21 to '25, when Democrats controlled the DOJ. Why — it was a crisis then. It’s a crisis now. Why didn’t Democrats call for it from '21 to '25?" Scarborough asked.

Apparently the order is....just walk away.

She's the second Dem who I've seen "just walk away".

I believe the Epstein files were altered and sanitized during the Biden era. There was NEVER a call for any release during that time.

They don’t have to answer since they own Old Media.

For both Biden and Trump Epstein is a titillation that advances no policy goal. It just distracts.

It does not advance DEI.
It does not advance DOGE or tariffs.0

The titillation only leads to government masturbation.

All the Epstein data was corrupted by the SDNY. So, it is guaranteed that there is nothing there tohurt commie trash. But, there is also nothing there that can reliably hurt non-commie trash. So, the CTrash just sit on it.
Along comes DJT who promises to release it all.

Then , at the advice of his DEI hire he renegs on that promise. That is why the commie trash fight for its release — to show DJT up as unreliable. And, that works. It is not much but it splits MAGA and guarantees a 2026 Demos sweep.

To recover DJT needs to punt his bad DOJ hire and release it all — and ask for all of MAGA support. Failing that, he can kiss my butt.

Wow. I have never seen Nasty Pelosi looking so defeated. I guess her mannerisms are about right considering that she has so utterly lost the ultimate power/control that she once had. The Democrat party in in shambles, and her arch nemesis is in the White house again and more powerful than ever. Haven’t heard from mad Maxine Waters for a awhile either.

The answer is because they have recently added fiction about Trump to the Epstein stuff…..

Nancy knew that many prominent Democrats would end up in Jail if Biden released the Epstein information. Democrats like Richardson (Gov New Mexico), BJ Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and most likely a host of others. Nancy also knew that if Hillary was going to jail, she would take half of WA DC with her.
