I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. There’s no vote required if he wants to release them!

The only reason the house was voting was because he refused.

This is an obviously cynical ploy and major news outlets are running whole pieces without pointing this out. He could release them tonight.
If he has nothing to hide he doesn’t need a House vote. He can just release everything.

Exactly 👇h/t @urocklive1.bsky.social
“We have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party.”

So does this mean they've finished deleting files?
BREAKING: President Trump says House Republicans should vote to release Epstein files, a startling reversal after previously fighting the proposal.

Relatedly, Trump's supposed pardons for fake electors, and Giuliani, Powell etc, which were only announced via tweet by Ed Martin, not by Trump, have still not appeared on the WH clemency page, and may never. So those increasingly seem not just symbolic but fake. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The president can't pardon cronies facing state charges. He's trying anyway.
