ICYMI: Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on CNN: “Release the Epstein files”
Washington, D.C. — Today, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene joined CNN to discuss her thoughts on the urgency to release the Epstein files. She explains, “Pretty much everyone across the board agrees – release the Epstein files.” She also explains she has voiced her concerns regarding the Epstein files directly to President Trump.
Ranking Member Robert Garcia and Oversight Democrats have been leading the fight to secure the full Epstein files to deliver justice for the survivors and transparency to the American people. In July, Ranking Members Robert Garcia and Summer Lee led Oversight Democrats in introducing the motion to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice to release the full Epstein files during a House Oversight subcommittee vote.

Pamela Brown: I want to ask you about something else that you’ve been really openly passionate about, and that is the need for more transparency around the Epstein files. You even told us last month that you’re concerned about threats, because you want to expose some of the people in power who are on Jeffrey Epstein – who, you know, was part of Jeffrey Epstein’s ring. According to the survivors, there’s a list of men they haven’t released yet. You said you’re willing to read that list on the House floor. What more can you tell us about that? And the names?
Marjorie Taylor Greene: Oh, I told the – the lovely women that I met that are victims of Jeffrey Epstein. They also say they are victims of another group of men. One that they’re afraid to list publicly, and I told them that I would – I’d be happy to read that name on the House floor for them. There hasn’t been any movement forward on that – of course, that’s up to those women and that’s their decision. However, I remain steadfast and my belief is that all of this information should be released. No one should be protected. That’s completely unfair. And I think it’s a failure of – of administration, administration, and administration that they never released it. No one has released this stuff. And so, this is something that the American people are extremely angry about. I think it also played a part in Tuesday’s election of why some people are just mad and they don’t want to go vote, and it’s not going away anytime soon.
Wolf Blitzer: Have you made your concerns about the Epstein files known to the President directly?
Marjorie Taylor Greene: Yes, yes, I have. I don’t share my personal conversations with the President, but I did. I did express how important it is.
Pamela Brown: We should be clear – the President has never been accused of any wrongdoing related to Epstein’s crimes. But what do you say to people, perhaps people in your own district, who feel like his administration isn’t being transparent on this issue? And it brings a lot of questions up for them.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: I don’t really have to explain it. It’s, pretty much everyone across the board agrees – release the Epstein files. So this is something that I get calls into my office almost every day about. We track all the calls that come into my office, and I think that’s extremely important, whether they come from the district or out of district, and it’s – it’s all over the country. People just want this information released.
