The sponsor of the discharge petition to promote all government files on Jeffrey Epstein said on Tuesday that he was confident that the proposal would secure sufficient signature to vote on his bill.
“I’m not really engaged in a large -scale whip attempt. I think we will get votes,”
Hours ago, Massey was Presented a discharge petition All its files in Epstein case are designed to force a floor vote on the law required by the Department of Justice (DoJ) to release almost all files. By Tuesday night, there were four Republicans Signed petition: Reps. Nancy Mess (SC), Lauren Bobert (Kolo.), Marjori Taylor Green (Ga.) And Massey.
To hit the magical number of 218, two more Republicans would have to support the measurement, assuming that all 212 democrats were expected.
Massi’s confidence predicted speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) And other GOP leaders In case of Epstein, GOP Defeat outrage – And discouraging Republican MPs from supporting the misery’s petition.
Keeping this in mind, on Tuesday evening, Republican on House Oversite and Government Reform Committee A large number of documents and videos released The panel was given by DOJ under Sabapona.
The Democrats of the committee have rejected that effort, arguing that almost all the material was earlier made public. And Massey offered a uniform assessment, stating that he was “fully prepared pages”.
“DOJ curated all of that, and they are releasing what they want to release. And I think it is going to be like the Binders of Attorney General. [Pam] Bondi released [earlier in the year],” He said.
“People are going to go through them and say,” Hey, wait. There is nothing new here. This is the stuff we already knew. ” And then it will only disturb people that there is no transparency. ,
DOJ is the 12 Republican co-addresser of the underlying bill to force the revelations, sponsored with Rape Ro Khanna (D-Calif). This is not clear, however, how many of those GOP MPs are ready to take long steps in promoting President Trump by signing a discharge petition.
For example, Rape Jeff Van Drew (RN.J.) co-co-proposed the Massi-Khanna bill, but is dismissing the discharge petition, citing a concern, citing a concern that it could cause dirty opening to cause people who could harm people who were connected to Eptestein but did not do anything wrong.
Van Drew said, “There are good people who can get hurt, and we have to protect the victims. So it should go through the committee in a more careful and thoughtful manner.” “I am not going to sign the discharge petition, but I support the bill. And that’s where I have gone from the beginning.”
To promote their efforts, Masi and Khanna are staging a press conference on Wednesday morning with some victims of Epstein. Johnson and members of the Oversite Committee also met Epstein on Tuesday with the survivors, but it was behind the closed doors. In contrast, Wednesday’s incident will be public.
Massey stated that the difference in removing advanced idea by Trump is important, that Epstein saga is a “deception”.
“I think the game changer is left here yesterday. Because I was not in this meeting that they were in the overs -website committee, I heard it was very emotional,” Massey said.
“When they say those things publicly, there is no way that you can call it a deception.”
