Mr. Speaker, it is so fascinating how facts don't seem to matter sometimes on the floor. The only administration that has ever released anything on the Epstein files is the Trump administration. Last night, the House Oversight and Reform Committee released over 33,000 files. Now they say that 97 percent of it had already been released, 33,000 files. That is a lot of files. Let's take that 97 percent and say that it is accurate for argument and for argument only. That means that of 33,000 files, 3 percent of that is new. In fact, Mr. Speaker, I will tell you, as I was going through clips this morning, I noticed one conservative news source that said: Eureka, the missing minute surrounding Epstein's death is in the material that has been released. There has been a lot of controversy about that. A lot of people want to know about it, and there it is. More and more information is coming out, and it is coming out because of the Trump administration and because of the House Oversight and Reform Committee.
