This morning, Trump tried to downplay the Epstein situation as a "now dead" "hoax.". Here in reality, more than 25K people in 24 hours have signed the Demand Progress petition asking Congress to release the files. It’s time to stop the denials and listen to the American people.

Another poll, released in late July by @TCFdotorg, found that most voters, and a clear majority of independents, think corporations and billionaires are main obstacle to getting things done, NOT red tape.

A Demand Progress poll released in late May also found that voters overwhelmingly preferred populist arguments over abundance arguments. Abundance claims to be largely about helping Dems win, but voters keep rejecting its core premise.

As a Big Tech-sponsored abundance conference kicks off today in DC, yet another poll finds that voters overwhelmingly prefer populist politics that targets corporations and billionaires over abundance politics focused on red tape and regulations.
Democratic research finds voters prefer populism over ‘Abundance’

House Republicans have adopted their mostly meaningless resolution agreeing to the Epstein investigation underway on the Oversight committee. @KevinKileyCA voted present.

Speaker Johnson keeps saying that the @RepThomasMassie-@RepRoKhanna bill to release the Epstein files will violate the privacy of Epstein’s victims. THIS IS A LIE. The bill has protections for the victims’ private information and all the victims speaking today support it!

The White House keeps releasing mostly the same Epstein files over and over, which are roughly 1% of the material they actually have. Tune in at 10:30 AM ET to hear some of Epstein's survivors in their own words and hear why we need full transparency.
Epstein's survivors deserve justice and Americans deserve transparency.

Speaker Johnson keeps trying to make it look like Congress is doing something about the Epstein files while still keeping them under wraps. The American people deserve answers. More than 200k+ people have signed our petition and made calls to release the Epstein files.
The House just added a bill to floor sked this week that would direct the House Oversight Committee to "continue its ongoing investigation” into Epstein. Comes as GOP leaders are trying to stave off a discharge petition forcing the release of all the Epstein files.
