After wrangling back and for months to finally compel the Department of Justice to release all the information it had accumulated on pedophile and child sex trafficker Jeffery Epstein over the years, the House and Senate voted on Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2025, to pass a bill of approval and move it on to President Trump for finalizing signature.
The House passed the bill by a 427 "Yea" to 1 "Nay" Republican vote.
The Senate followed with a "Unanimous Consent Bill," meaning a voice vote wasn't taken, but the bill was approved by a unanimous decision via the Speaker.
Sort of a political game whereby no Senator is actually named, but the bill can be approved by unanimous consent. As a result, a Senator can factually report he didn't vote for the bill one way or the other; only gave "consent" for its passage.
Kind of like saying "I like hot dogs, but usually not before lunch. But off the record, I'll eat one if everyone else does."
This entire Epstein saga has been one drug-out convoluted misstep after another — for years. Dating back a few decades right up until the moment he allegedly committed suicide in a New York City jail while under protective custody in August, 2019.
Why? What was so important about Jeff Epstein's life style that's become involved in a couple of Federal Departments of Justice — both Democrat and Republican — and finally reached a crescendo during Trump's second term?
Reminiscent of an old Hollywood film, the primary theme seems to involve sex, lies, video tape and lots of well-known customers handing over bundles of money to participate in exciting forbidden activities.
There's more. A small isle in the U.S. Virgin Islands and a central New Mexico desert ranch — where the fantasies were staged with underage girls, procured by Jeffery and some of his associates — were often the centers of attractions in luring cash paying customers.
And, a private jet to ferry clients and thrill seekers to these high-dollar dins of pleasure.
Apparently, Epstein had plenty of wealthy friends from all walks of life and political persuasions.
However, everyone wished to remain elusive from media and investigative agencies. Having fun is one thing, being publicly exposed for doing it is quite another. Especially, if a person involved is influential in business, social, academia and political circles.
Folks might get the wrong idea about what goes on in these places. After all, it's not a painting of the Mona Lisa hanging in one of Jeff's homes — it's Bill Clinton, lounging in a blue dress with red heels and pointing an accusatory finger; as if reminding visiting patrons "I'm no more guilty than you are."
Bill was also the 42nd President of the United States before he became the inspiration for an artist's rendition of one the world's distinguished cross-dressers.
Alright, that's the basic plot of the story. The obvious question is why would nearly every member of Congress vote to insist all this sordid information be made public? There has to be some suspicion there may be a few present and former Democrat and Republican government employee names contained within the documents, as well as prominent business individuals.
Exposing victims of the sexual corruption of certain rich dudes is a noble effort, but I'm not sure this was the primary goal of those seeking exposure of the villains.
Possibly, Dems believe it could be a clever way to snag famous Republicans, principally Donald Trump, then they may be foolishly stumbling into a trap of their own making.
If that's the case, go for it. But remember, be careful what you wish for.
On the other hand, Democrats could always blame Trump if their plan backfires. After all, if he's a King — as they insist — he should be able to fix the problem.
If he wants to.
If not, then he really must be Hitler 2.0 or some other Devil in disguise. The Dems misguided aspirations certainly couldn't be the fault of their own ridiculous blunders!!!
