She may have some company sightseeing in Damascus...
Republican Rep. Thomas Massie said Sunday there could be "a deluge of Republicans" who vote in favor of forcing the Department of Justice to release all the Jeffrey Epstein files.
"There could be 100 or more. I'm hoping to get a veto-proof majority on this legislation when it comes up for a vote," Massie told ABC News' "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl. Massie was one of four Republicans who defied President Donald Trump and joined Democrats in signing the discharge petition which forced the vote this week.
The vote comes after the House Oversight Committee released over 20,000 documents, including email and text messages from Epstein, many of which mention Trump. The president has responded by calling the files a "hoax" and he pressed Attorney General Pam Bondi to open an investigation into several prominent Democrats over their connections to Epstein.
"I have another concern about these investigations that he's announced. If they have ongoing investigations in certain areas, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen, these investigations to open a bunch of them to--as a last ditch effort to prevent the release of the Epstein files," Massie said.

Some possibilities...
-
He's looking for veto proof. He threatens senators to keep them from voting yes on it, at least to keep it short of a two-thirds majority.
-
He told Bondi to start an investigation into any Democrats mentioned in the files. She'll say she can't release the files because there is an active investigation. Everything goes to court and languishes there.
-
The DOJ falsifies or hides documents.
sidebar: The history on this is crazy.
The Biden DOJ never brought any indictments.
The GOP was all "release, release, release". Including Bondi back in February when the documents were on her desk being ready to be released.
FF to July, and Bondi says there's nothing to see, move on.
Now the congresscritters are pushing for it and Mr Donnie Innocence is digging his heels in. He tells her to investigate the Democrats mentioned and she appoints a prosecutor. Which is interesting, because in theory her DOJ would have already looked at this before she said in July that there was nothing to see. Why look again, except to placate Teh Donald?
WHAT THE HELL IS IN THOSE FILES ???

'We'll give them everything,' Trump says ahead of upcoming vote on Epstein files, adds that he doesn't want it to 'detract' from Republican successes
In the Oval Office, the president said today that he would sign a bill to release the complete tranche of Epstein files if it ends up on his desk.“All I want is, I want for people to recognize a great job that I’ve done on pricing, on affordability, because we brought prices way down,” Trump said. “I just don’t want Epstein to detract from the great success of the Republican Party, including the fact that the Democrats are totally blamed for the shutdown.”
He added:
We’ll give them everything. Sure. I would let them, let the Senate look at it, let anybody look at it, but don’t talk about it too much, because honestly, I don’t want to take it away from us. It’s really a Democrat problem. The Democrats were Epstein’s friends, all of them, and it’s a hoax.

Latest news is that there’s nothing in them.
Not any more.

Oi, the world doesn't make sense any more. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rand Paul aren't spouting nonsense 100% of the time ...

When speaking to reporters on board Air Force One on 14 November, President Donald Trump was asked about recently released emails from Jeffrey Epstein which mentioned him.
Trump said he knew nothing about that and said the focus should be on other people named in those emails, including former President Bill Clinton.
After a journalist from Bloomberg News tried to ask a follow-up question on Epstein, the president turned to her and said: "Quiet. Quiet, piggy."

Greene’s resignation from her seat could set the stage for her to seek to replace Trump in the White House in the 2028 election, and possibly become the next leader of the MAGA movement once he exits political life.
So is that the real reason?

@ShiroKuro That’s the impression I got listening to her announcement on X, the one linked in the article I posted. She sounded like a candidate for President

Yuck.
Maybe she’ll pick Erica Kirk as her running mate …

She was on Bill Maher's show a few weeks ago. I saw Maher on Fareed's show last weekend and Maher made a comment about meeting her in person and that she wasn't necessarily what he expected. The comment was made in the context of reaching out to people you don't agree with.
Here's the segment from Maher's show. I haven't watched it yet...

She says she isn't.
"Running for President requires traveling all over the country, begging for donations all day everyday to raise hundreds of millions of dollars, arguing political talking points everyday to the point of exhaustion, destroying your health and having no personal life in order to attempt to get enough votes to become President all to go to work into a system that refuses to fix any of America's problems," Greene said Sunday. "The fact that I'd have to go through all that but would be totally blocked from truly fixing anything is exactly why I would never do it."
