On the recordNovember 20, 2025
I have taken to the floor today to respond to Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries calling me a ``stone-cold liar'' during a press conference defending the recent discovery of Democrats' communication with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. I bring with me something that he and many of his fellow Democrats-- Democrats like Jamie Raskin, Jasmine Crockett, and Stacey Plaskett-- apparently detest, which is a thing called evidence. Tuesday, I gave a speech on the House floor detailing my House Oversight Committee's good work to date on our Epstein investigation. After all, Hakeem Jeffries, the Democrats in Congress, and their allies in the corporate media have been demanding a full release of the Epstein documents for months, including all the documents from the Epstein estate. Without hesitation, I subpoenaed all of the Jeffrey Epstein estate documents because I, as well as my Republican colleagues on the House Oversight Committee, want to know what really happened. We want to know what went on and who was involved in these unspeakable crimes. We want justice for the survivors. That is why we are doing this investigation. The House Oversight Committee obtained over 30,000 pages of documents from the estate. Unlike the Democrats, who only released 10 of those over 30,000 pages of documents, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee released every single document on the website for the American people to see.
