GOP Epstein Files Cover-Up Breaks Down As James Comer Spins New Unbelievable Tale
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) said that the Epstein files don't implicate Trump, but his point makes no sense because if they cleared Trump, why won't Republicans release them?
House Republicans are still trying to explain why they won’t release the Epstein files. Republicans also keep saying that the files do not implicate or involve Donald Trump in any way.
The problem is that Republicans still refuse to release the files.
Republicans held another press conference, where they claimed to be transparent about the Epstein files, while not being transparent at all about the Epstein files.

Speaker Mike Johnson attacked Democrats for demanding the release of the files:
Congressional Democrats are rudderless right now. I don’t know how else to describe it. They don’t have a message. They don’t have a leader. They don’t have any identifiable set of policy solutions for the problems facing the American people. Their party continues to hit all time, historic lows and poll after poll.
And many of you have reported on that. These are objective facts. They’re utterly lost as a party and everybody can see it. So what are they doing? They see a shiny object and they latch onto it. Democrats did not say one word about the Epstein files for the entire Biden presidency. They had all the files in the Biden, DOJ.
They didn’t say a word about it. Four years not a word. And suddenly, now they have somehow convinced themselves that the Epstein files will be damaging to President Trump and Republicans in some way that they’ve imagined. And so they feign outrage. Let me be very clear about this. I’ve met with some of the Epstein victims, some of these brave women who’ve come forward.
They were here on Capitol Hill, as you all know. We heard their stories. It’s gut wrenching. It’s disgusting what they’ve been made to go through, and they bravely came forward. We’re working around the clock to ensure that justice is served and also as part of the oversight. To figure out why justice has been delayed for so long.
The Republicans were just getting started as James Comer found the real Epstein files criminal, and guess what? They say it’s not Donald Trump.
