Congress is set to vote today, November 18, 2025, on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, a bill that would compel the Department of Justice to release as much information as legally possible about its investigations into Jeffrey Epstein. The legislation comes after months of partisan infighting, petitions to bypass leadership, and public pressure from both parties. Initially opposed by President Donald Trump and House GOP leadership, the measure gained momentum when more than half of House members—including every Democrat and several Republicans—signed a discharge petition to force the vote. Trump reversed his stance over the weekend, now urging Republicans to support the release, a dramatic shift that has reshaped the political landscape surrounding the issueThe vote carries major implications for transparency, political accountability, and the balance of power between Congress and the executive branch. If passed, the bill would require the DOJ to disclose files that could shed light on Epstein's network of political and financial connections, which have long fueled speculation across party lines. The debate has fractured the GOP, with figures like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene clashing publicly with Trump, while bipartisan sponsors such as Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) have pushed the measure forward. Beyond its immediate political drama, the vote represents a rare bipartisan effort to force disclosure in one of the most controversial criminal cases of recent decades, raising questions about how much the government has withheld and what revelations could follow.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House Republicans brace for Epstein files vote led by Trump foe Thomas Massie | Fox NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Trump Throws Support Behind House GOP Vote To Release Epstein Files, Continues Attacking MTG As “Traitor” As MAGA Civil War Wages On
In this episode, we break down a new House Republican memo accusing Democrats of cherry-picking and leaking Epstein-related emails that name Donald Trump in order to damage him politically, arguing the investigation is being weaponized as partisan warfare rather than a search for truth. In this episode, we also explore how this clash over document transparency, DOJ pressure, and political narrative could reshape public trust around one of the most explosive scandals in modern politics.

The federal government's partial shutdown has entered its 16th day. The Senate is planning to vote at 11 a.m. ET for a 10th time on the short-term funding bill, but that vote is expected to fail again. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and other House GOP leaders are holding a press conference at 10 a.m. ET. NTD will have live coverage of that event.Israel says it has identified two more hostages among the bodies returned from Gaza. Israel's army said the bodies of 27-year-old Inbar Hayman and 39-year-old Sgt. Muhammad al-Atarash were handed over by the Hamas terrorist group on Wednesday night. Hayman was the last known female hostage still held in Gaza after being kidnapped from the Nova music festival on Oct. 7, 2023. President Donald Trump said the United States is helping Israel recover the bodies of those still missing.
House Republican leadership has made it clear that they will not whip votes against the discharge petition to force a public release of Jeffrey Epstein–related government files. Majority Whip Tom Emmer confirmed that leadership has no plans to pressure members either way, calling it a “non-issue” since discharge petitions are privileged motions handled outside typical party control. This effectively means GOP lawmakers are free to vote their conscience without fear of reprisal. The decision also shields Republican leadership from accusations of obstructing transparency while quietly maintaining political distance from the controversy.Critics note that while GOP leadership avoids direct opposition, Speaker Mike Johnson has effectively stalled the process by delaying the swearing-in of the 218th member whose signature would trigger the petition. This move has frustrated both parties, with members like Thomas Massie urging colleagues to stand up for public disclosure of Epstein's files. The GOP's refusal to whip votes, combined with procedural delays, reflects a broader balancing act—signaling openness to transparency while quietly managing political fallout from one of Washington's most radioactive subjects.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House GOP won't break precedent to whip against Epstein files bill

Republican leaders of the Kansas Legislature are working to cobble together the necessary two-thirds majority of the House and Senate to call a special session in November. The original purpose was to redraw the four Kansas congressional districts to make it easy to defeat U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids, a Democrat. But there are maybe a dozen or so House GOP members not thrilled about redistricting in 2025 when it wasn't scheduled to be done again until 2032. Republican leaders want to appeal to dissenters by trying to pass a bill during the special session to prevent individuals from changing their gender marker on Kansas driver's licenses. With this proposed special session about three weeks away, Kansas Reflector senior reporter Tim Carpenter and editor Sherman Smith take stock of the drama.

This edition of Crosstalk began with news concerning the government shutdown or more specifically, the "Schumer Shutdown." The House GOP passed what's called a clean, continuing resolution to keep the government open and operating. "Clean" simply means to keep funding the government with items neither added nor taken away. 3 times this has failed. The Senate requires 60 votes but the Republicans don't have a 60 vote majority in the Senate. While a few Democrats have joined the Republicans, this still falls short of that needed for a majority. Senator Schumer and his party are holding out as they want to restore funding for PBS and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, as well as restore health care dollars previously pulled out from the "One, Big, Beautiful Bill" including that which gives benefits to illegal aliens. Those wishing to communicate with their senators can call the Senate Switchboard at 202-224-3121 or go to senate.gov. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth summoned about 730 U.S. military generals, admirals and senior enlisted troops from around the world for a gathering at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia. He, along with President Trump, addressed those in attendance. Hegseth stated without apology that, "From this moment forward, the only mission of the newly restored Department of War is this: war-fighting, preparing for war and preparing to win." He emphasized numerous times the idea of peace through strength. Jim presented most of Hegseth's speech, giving you the opportunity to get a look inside our military and the posture they seek to pursue, as they work to protect the United States of America.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom's recent visit to early-primary South Carolina, followed by his return home and hinting at a special election to re-politicize California's redistricting process in order to add more Democratic seats in Congress (as a counter to Texas' legislature doing the same to pad the present House GOP majority), seems further evidence of the term-limited governor's president ambitions. Yet as Newsom's South Carolina experience showed, wherever he journeys, he also brings along the Golden State as political baggage. Hoover senior fellow Lee Ohanian and distinguished policy fellow Bill Whalen, both contributors to Hoover's California on Your Mind periodical, join Jonathan Movroydis to discuss the latest in the Golden State including where Newsom stands as far as delivering on lofty gubernatorial promises with less than 18 months remaining in his second and final term, as well as how that record on such thorny policy matters as homelessness, new housing and high-speed rail construction might impact his presidential prospects. Recorded on July 21, 2025.
With no new enterprise journalism published recently on the “Epstein files” front, President Donald Trump's allies are catching their breath. Democrats are riding what could be a sugar high, having already cost the House GOP some votes this week. But as the aperture widens, are Republicans actually finding themselves in better shape than conventional wisdom would suggest ahead of the 2026 midterms? Playbook contributing author Adam Wren and chief correspondent Dasha Burns talk through that and two other key questions just now coming into focus about 2026.

It's Tuesday and we are joined by investigative journalist and director of The Undercurrent , Lauren Windsor, to discuss her new piece in Rolling Stone on the Texas state government's war on climate change policy.
