Lawmaker with access to unredacted Epstein files says documents implicate Trump

journalismMay 25, 2026294,187

Representative Ted Lieu of California said the unredacted Jeffrey Epstein files include material involving Donald Trump. Lieu, who was granted access to the unredacted records, called on the Department of Justice and news organizations to investigate and disclose material he says has been withheld. He says the files contain substantive evidence beyond what has been publicly released that could clarify Trump's contacts with Epstein's circle. If verified and released, the material could shift legal assessments and intensify public scrutiny of Trump's relationships and activities.

Instead of whining about it, I wish anyone in Congress would just read the unredacted Epstein files out loud on the floor of their chamber. WTF are they waiting for?

Permission. The amount of times Massie has said he would and hasn't yet is insulting to the survivors. He needs to do it or publicly submit he can't

Where are all those anonymous hackers who always tell us how they’ll take down the powerful? Why haven’t they released them?

Somebody's life span is going immediately go to zero if they read those files out loud.

Reps. Massie & Greene have said over & over for more than six months that the names in the Epstein Files would be read aloud in Congress. Has that been done? No, it hasn't. MTG promised to do it but didn't. Massie says he'll do it before he leaves Congress. I'm not holding my breath.

Republicans would have had it paperback by now if it involved a Dem.

👏👏👏👏 I am tired of the threats. The world is in so much danger and people that could do something do nothing.

Massie and others keep saying they will do it but it's all blah, blah, blah...

They don't possess them. The DoJ has them and are withholding/redacting them.

How many times did we hear that so-and-so was prepared to read the files on the floor by such-and-such date??😡

I suspect there are Democratic donors in the files too & those donors don't want to be outed.

They are complicit at this point for not doing so.

They CAN & SHOULD‼️ #Speech&DebateClause’s "immunity from liability applies even though their conduct, if performed in other than legislative contexts, would itself be contrary to criminal or civil statutes. This general immunity principle forms the core of the protections afforded by the Clause."

I call upon the YOLO CAUCUS (Tillis, Cornyn, Massie, McConnell, etc) to torpedo this administration
