House Republicans are facing renewed pressure to release documents related to the Epstein files, with Representative Thomas Massie leading the charge. Massie is close to securing the necessary Republican signatures to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, which aims to compel the Department of Justice to release millions of suppressed documents and unredacted files.
