Congress Orders Trump to Release the Epstein Files

Congressional Republicans on Tuesday overwhelmingly approved a bill to release all files related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a measure President Trump spent months trying to kill. On The Daily, Times correspondents Annie Karni and Carl Hulse chart how a small rebellion inside the GOP swelled into a partywide mutiny, while Representative Thomas Massie recounts his role in forcing the vote. It’s a stunning turn after months of resistance from Republican leaders, and a reminder that, for Mr. Trump, the Epstein scandal is a story that won’t go away.
