Schumer did good. His vast experience served our party well today.
But the survivors are... amazing, really. Think about the power some of these men probably have.

The Epstein bill is headed to Trump’s desk as we speak.
So, what now? Well, a lot of panic, it seems. I have seen every single possible worst case scenario all over social media in the last hour, so let’s go through this step by step. My only request, read the whole thing before commenting.

So, let’s start at the beginning. The bill is The Epstein Transparency Act. It will require the DOJ to make the files public, with any redactions necessary to protect the victims or personal information. They have 30 days to release the files once Trump signs to bill into law.

Now I know your first question “Ariella, couldn’t they just redact everything they don’t want us to see and we’d be none the wiser?”
Valid question, but the good news is, not exactly.
First off, the other part of the bill is that all those redactions must be reported to Congress.

So there is accountability baked into the bill. But, obviously no one trusts the DOJ to give all the real reasons. That’s where we thank our Dems for their tireless work on this process.

Senators like Ron Wyden (OR), who has been at the helm of the financial piece of this entire saga has a very good idea of what the files should contain. He knows exactly what to look for and what is a red flag if it’s not there.

And he’s not the only one, we have to give massive props to our House Oversight Dems, specifically Robert Garcia and Summer Lee.

I was in a meeting with Senate staff this morning because, even though it was expected to pass overwhelmingly, as of 9am west coast time, we were still expecting Thune to need to be pushed to bring this to the floor.

If Schumer hadn’t done this, we don’t know if Thune would have brought it to a vote. We don’t know when Thune would have brought it to a vote, we don’t know if Trump might have changed his mind and tried to get Senators to back down.

I’m sure Trump is going to try to pull something, but it’s not just about him, it’s about them. Any justice they can get matters. Every single name in there, every single bank involved, however far this goes, that’s all justice.

Justice doesn’t stop at Trump. This will be justice, maybe not the compete justice we hope for, but it matters nonetheless.

Michiganders are sharing their health insurance premiums increases with me… not 10% or 20%, but in one example - $200/month to $2900/month.
Republicans have tried to kill the ACA more than 70 times since 2010, and have never once had a plan for anything better.

His base is fractured. His rivals are emboldened. His opponents are united. The result is today’s House vote. Members voted 427-1 to force the DOJ to release the files. If this ends badly, it will be due to Trump’s hubris – in taking for granted the conspiracy theory that brought him back to power.
