WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said House Republicans should vote to release the files in the Jeffrey Epstein case, a startling reversal after previously fighting the proposal as a growing number of those in his own party supported it.
“We have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party,” Trump wrote on social media late Sunday after landing at Joint Base Andrews following a weekend in Florida.
Trump’s statement followed a fierce fight within the GOP over the files, including an increasingly nasty split with Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who had long been one of his fiercest supporters.
What is that based on? Law? Doesn’t seem like the DOJ’s policies should be able to override one of the three constitutionally prescribed authorities of our country…
Really it will be the GOP letting it happen.
No, the current bill proposed allows the DOJ to redact any information related to victims or an ongoing case.
By opening a huge investigation, it basically means they can redact anything they feel like because “ongoing investigation”.
