Making a surprise statement, Donald Trump announced on Sunday, November 16, that he would support a vote in the American House of Representatives on the publication of the dossier on sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, whom he previously opposed.
“Republicans in the House should vote to release the Epstein documents, because we have nothing to hide and it’s time to put this Democrat hoax behind us.”the president wrote on his Truth Social platform.
The House of Representatives is expected to consider a bill this week that would force the Justice Department to release the Epstein files. Even before Donald Trump changed his mind, a majority of elected officials were prepared to vote in favor of releasing the document.
Distance yourself from MAGA allies
“The Justice Department has published tens of thousands of pages about “Epstein,” and is of interest to some Democratic operatives” about them “connection with Epstein”assured Donald Trump, quote “Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, Larry Summers, etc. ».
The president was accused of trying to hide the elements involving him in this case by blocking the vote, but the party concerned denied this. His positions have caused divisions in the usually staunch Republican Party.
Donald Trump has distanced himself from close MAGA (Make America Great Again) allies, including lawmakers like Marjorie Taylor Greene, from whom he withdrew his support for the 2026 election this weekend.
“Some Republican ‘members’ are being ‘taken advantage of,’ and we cannot let that happen”launch the leader. “The DPR Oversight Committee can get everything they are legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE”he continued to emphasize in his message.
