Pence: 'Time Has Come' to Release Epstein Files
UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – At least six Republicans, including Rep. Thomas Massie, support a bill to fully release Epstein investigation files despite President Trump's opposition, amid demands for transparency.
- On July 17, 2025, former Vice President Mike Pence urged the Trump administration to release all files related to Jeffrey Epstein's investigation and prosecution.
- This call follows Democratic pressure for transparency amid speculation that President Trump or close associates may be implicated in withheld documents.
- Republican Representative Morgan Griffith opposed a measure to compel release, citing partisanship, while Speaker Mike Johnson advocated for full disclosure to let the public decide.
- David Urban, a Trump 2016 advisor, described releasing the files as "painful" but necessary to restore trust, while Trump distanced himself stating, "It was a hoax."
- The controversy has deepened GOP divisions, intensified MAGA criticisms, and fueled ongoing debates about government transparency and the handling of Epstein-related records.
