The White House Epstein files scandal was headline news all day today.
First, Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee released some emails this morning showing that Trump knew about Epstein’s child sex trafficking, and even spent time with the underaged girls.
This is one report from The Hill [1]:
Epstein alleges Trump ‘knew about the girls’ in emails released by House Democrats
Excerpts:
Emails released by Democrats show convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein telling associates in the 2010s that “of course” President Trump knew about his relationships with underage girls.
The three emails, released Wednesday by Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, show Epstein’s correspondence with his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as columnist and author Michael Wolff.
In the short exchanges, Epstein says Trump “spent hours at my house,” while another says the president “knew about the girls.”
“The more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover. These latest emails and correspondence raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the President,” Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), the top Democrat on the panel, said in a statement.
“The Department of Justice must fully release the Epstein files to the public immediately. The Oversight Committee will continue pushing for answers and will not stop until we get justice for the victims.”
The emails are set to inflame a debate about materials related to Epstein that will heat back up as the House of Representatives returns to Washington on Wednesday to reopen the federal government.
Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) will be sworn in Wednesday afternoon, and is set to become the final signature needed on a discharge petition that will force floor action on a bill to compel the Department of Justice to release files related to Epstein.
The Trump administration apparently went into panic mode, as Trump mocked Republicans in his own party stating “Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap” as he tried to keep making this a partisan issue and a “Democratic Hoax.” He then pressured some of the Republican Congresswomen who have signed Representative Massie’s discharge petition on the Epstein files.
From The Hill [2]:
Trump warns GOP against engaging with Democrats’ Epstein ‘trap’
Excerpts:
President Trump on Wednesday warned Republicans against engaging with the latest round of documents released from the Jeffrey Epstein case, which included emails in which the late sex offender referenced Trump.
“The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they’ll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they’ve done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
“Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap. The Democrats cost our Country $1.5 Trillion Dollars with their recent antics of viciously closing our Country, while at the same time putting many at risk — and they should pay a fair price,” Trump continued.
“There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else, and any Republicans involved should be focused only on opening up our Country, and fixing the massive damage caused by the Democrats!”
Trump’s post admonishing Republicans also comes as his allies have attempted to dissuade some GOP lawmakers from signing onto a discharge petition that would force a vote on a bill to release files in the Epstein case.
Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) is set to become the 218th signature on the discharge petition shortly after she is sworn in on Wednesday at around 4 p.m. EST.
All other Democrats and four Republicans have signed the petition: Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), and Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.).
The Trump administration has reached out to Boebert and Mace, specifically, about their support for the petition.
Arizona Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva was sworn into office later in the day, and promptly signed the discharge petition sponsored by Congressman Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna. The petition to release the Epstein files must now be brought to the floor of the House of Representatives for a full vote in Congress, which should happen in early December.
Congressman Khanna actually predicted that 40 to 50 Republicans might vote for it once it is on the House floor, which could potentially be enough votes to overturn a Presidential veto, which is all but certain, if the bill can be passed by the Senate with a similar margin, which is probably not likely.
But it forces EVERY MEMBER OF CONGRESS to be on the record regarding whether or not they want the Epstein files released.
From The Washington Post [3]:
House effort to force vote on releasing Epstein files can advance
A discharge petition now has the 218 signatures needed to trigger a vote on releasing more Epstein files.
Excerpts:
A bipartisan House effort to force a vote on releasing more files related to the federal government’s investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein can now move forward.
A discharge petition — a mechanism by which House lawmakers can circumvent the normal legislative process to compel votes — received the 218th signature needed to force a vote on the Epstein files on Wednesday. The newly sworn-in Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-Arizona) provided the final signature, adding her name to a list of lawmakers that includes all 214 Democrats and four Republicans: Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Georgia), Lauren Boebert (Colorado), Nancy Mace (South Carolina) and Thomas Massie (Kentucky).
“That’s what the American people expect us to do: fight for them. That is why I will sign the discharge petition right now to release the Epstein files,” Grijalva said in a speech after being sworn in.
“Justice cannot wait another day.”
Massie accused the White House of “scrambling” on Wednesday to stop the vote from happening but declined to say exactly what actions he believed it was taking.
“I’m little bit troubled that we’re trying to undo a shutdown here, and the most important thing at the White House was trying to stop a vote on releasing the Epstein files,” he said.
Now that the petition has 218 signatures, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) is required by House rules to bring the Epstein-related measure to the floor after a period of seven legislative days, setting up a politically fraught vote that some Republican members have been trying to avoid since before the August recess.
If enacted, the measure would require the attorney general to “release all documents and records in possession of the Department of Justice relating to Jeffrey Epstein,” minus identifiable information of the victims, within 30 days of the bill’s enactment.
Khanna said Wednesday that he was confident the measure would succeed in the House:
“I think we could get 40 to 50 Republicans [to vote for the measure] once it’s on the floor of the House,” he told reporters ahead of Grijalva’s swearing in.

I think we are going to see a very interesting end to 2025 this year, as this Epstein scandal is not going away anytime soon. As I previously wrote [4], former Prince Andrew was the first billionaire and Epstein pal to suffer political fallout from this scandal, but others are sure to follow.
