The bill is set for a House vote soon after a bipartisan group forced Speaker Mike Johnson to bring it to the floor. In a Truth Social post, Trump urged Republicans to pass the bill, stating they have &#8220;nothing to hide&#8221; and framed the issue as a Democratic attempt to distract from Republican achievements. He also directed the FBI and DOJ to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/epstein-documents-clinton-likes-them-young\/\" title=\"...: &#039;Clinton Prefers Youthful Companions\">investigate epstein&#8217;<\/a>s connections to prominent Democrats, including Bill Clinton. Trump&#8217;s shift contrasts wiht earlier remarks dismissing the issue as a Democratic &#8220;Russia, Russia, Russia Scam.&#8221; The handling of the Epstein files has caused internal GOP conflicts, notably between Trump and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who accused Trump of opposing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/larry-elder-justifying-the-suppression-of-conservative-content\/\" title=\"Larry Elder: Justifying The Suppression of Conservative Content\">files&#8217; release<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump calls on House Republicans to pass bill releasing full Epstein files<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2400515\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\">Donald Trump<\/a> urged House Republicans to vote for a bill that would release nearly all of the remaining <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/epstein-files\">Epstein files<\/a> held by the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/department-of-justice\">Department of Justice<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The House will hold a vote sometime this week on the Epstein Files Transparency Act after four Republicans joined all Democrats on a discharge petition forcing Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) to bring it to the floor.
