Trump changes stance on Epstein dossier release: We have nothing to hide
Trump-Epstein

US President Donald Trump has urged Republicans in Congress to vote for the release of Jeffrey Epstein's files, reversing his previous stance of resistance.

His post on Truth Social came after Mike Johnson said he believed the Justice Department's vote to release documents on the Epstein case could end the insinuation that "Trump is involved."

"Congress Republicans should vote to release the files because we have nothing to hide," Trump wrote on his platform.

"And it's time to move on from this Democratic hoax, perpetrated by radical left-wing lunatics, designed to distract from the great success of the Republican Party, including our recent victory over the 'shutdown' of the Democrats," he said.

Although Trump and Epstein have been photographed together in the past, the president has said their relationship soured before the financier was convicted. In emails released last week, Epstein said he believed Trump “knew about the girls,” although it is not clear what that means.

Trump, who recently dismissed the Epstein files as a smear campaign by Democrats, then directed the Justice Department to investigate their ties to the notorious financier.

Some critics have accused Trump of trying to hide details, which he denies, in an attempt to block the vote that has divided the Republican Party.

On Sunday, Republican Congressman Thomas Massie challenged Trump on whether he was making a "last ditch effort" to keep the full Epstein files from being released by ordering a new investigation.

Massie and Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, who are leading the movement to release all the files, have expressed concerns about recent moves from the White House.

In an interview on ABC, Massie criticized Trump for ordering Pam Bondi to investigate Democrats' ties to Epstein.

On Friday, Trump withdrew his support for Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, one of his most ardent supporters in Congress, after her criticism of several issues not properly handled by Republicans, including the Epstein files.

On Saturday, Khanna said he expects more than 40 Republicans to vote in favor of the release. Republicans hold a majority of 219 seats, while Democrats hold 214.
