Parliament spokesman stops the session of important coordination

Epstein files

Republicans prevents coordination in the congress

In the House of Representatives, too, the case is rocking up over sex offenders Epstein. The head of the chamber now pulls the emergency brake. The Ministry of Justice, however, announced a survey of Epstein complicit Ghislaine Maxwell.

The dispute over the disclosure of files in the affair about the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein also rocks up in the US House of Representatives: the MPs were about to vote on the release of previously secret documents in the Jeffrey Epstein case-but then spokesman Mike Johnson suddenly explained the early end of the session.

In order to prevent a vote on the release of the files, the Republican head of the House of Representatives wanted to send the MPs early and not only on Friday in the summer break, reported the “New York Times” and other media. The House of Representatives only meets again in September.

Johnson founded the step with alleged “political games” of the Democrats. “We can’t be telling us about transparency,” said the Republican from the state of Louisiana. The Democrats accused Johnson of slowing down a vote on a resolution in the Epstein Fall. The Ministry of Justice requires the approval of documents, including investigative documents and records for the case.

Observers also see Johnson’s decision as an attempt to defuse internal conflicts in the Republican faction. Trump has come under pressure in his own warehouse because his government did not bring light into the Epstein scandal as promised. The US investment banker Epstein was accused of misused numerous girls and young women. The billionaire was found hanged in his prison cell in New York in 2019.

Shortly before Johnson’s announcement, a committee had decided to load Ghislaine Maxwell – long -time confidants of Epstein – before the congress. The Ministry of Justice also announced that he wanted to question Maxwell. The central question for you is: “What do you know?” Her lawyer told the British BBC that Maxwell would “always say the truth” and is already in discussions with the authorities. Maxwell was convicted of Epstein as a member of a sex trade ring at the end of 2021 and is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence in the US state of Florida.

President Donald Trump said a survey of Maxwell’s “sounds appropriate”. According to his lawyer, he had commissioned Justice Minister Pam Bondi to release all relevant statements from the Epstein procedure.

At the same time, Trump announced against former President Barack Obama and accused him of “treason” and an attempted “Putsch” in the almost ten -year -old Russia affair.

Trump’s Minister of Justice Pam Bondi initially spoke of a list of prominent “customers” of Epstein, but then contested their existence in early July. In order to calm the subsequent turmoil of his supporters, Trump had promised the disclosure of legal documents last week. This has not yet been made. Trump also left Trump unanswered questions about his own, earlier close relationship with Epstein.

The US President again described the occupation with the Epstein case on Tuesday as a “witch hunt”. Instead, the media should rather report on the misconduct of former President Barack Obama (2009 to 2017), he said. Obama was guilty of the “treason” and, as the “leader of a gang” of democratic politicians, tried a “coup”, Trump claimed.

Obama ordered an investigation into Russia in 2016 with the aim of stealing the election victory against the democrat Hillary Clinton in 2016, Trump continued. He called for legal steps against Obama. However, this enjoys far -reaching immunity.

Trump referred to a report that secret service coordinator Tulsi Gabbard published on Friday. It claims that Obama and his team have planned a “coup of state against President Trump”.

Obama had Trump rejected allegations. “These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt to distract” from the Epstein affair, explained Obama’s office. On Sunday, Trump shared a fake video in which you can see how Obama is arrested.
