Democrat Says More Jeffrey Epstein Emails Expected

Source: Newsweek

Nov 17, 2025 at 11:43 PM EST


U.S. Representative Robert Garcia of California, top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, told CNN's Kaitlan Collins Monday night that additional documents from Jeffrey Epstein's estate are expected to be released.

Garcia confirmed during the interview that his committee has been working with the estate to obtain more materials beyond the 23,000 pages already made public, which contained President Donald Trump's name more than 1,600 times. Newsweek reached out to the White House via email on Monday for comment.

Why It Matters

The ongoing release of Epstein-related documents comes as Trump recently reversed his long-standing opposition to releasing investigative files, now calling on House Republicans to vote for the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

This shift represents a significant political development, occurring amid tensions with some congressional supporters and following new revelations about Epstein's connections to Trump.

... made back in 2019, a few months before Epstein died. Read it yesterday, not sure if on my iPhone or my tower.

Okey dokey, I found it! Not the same article I read but good enough:

"By April, the two were apparently planning a film production that would “redeem” Epstein’s reputation.

On 30 April, Epstein wrote: “the christians i met with feel , the media portraying me as beyond redemption is deeply troubling and offensive.”

Bannon replied with strategic remarks: “Yes yes yes of course – but we must counter ‘rapist who traffics in female children to be raped by worlds most powerful , richest men’ – that can’t be redeemed – that why we let them blow up the argument while showing the 12 you redeemed.”

He added: “Can’t redeem unredeemable – – you are a lot of things – which we will show – but you are NOT that.”

Bannon then asked: “Did u get the film we shot ??”

Epstein responded: “Just landed.” "

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"In 2024, media reports indicated that Bannon recorded some 15 hours of Epstein for a planned documentary as a way of assisting him with his PR problems."

Then Trump can say he was in favor of releasing them. We shall see.

I am seeing way more delays as they try to hide the scrubbing.

I think the Dems should subpoena the FBI agents who worked on the files. Some of them were so upset, and I am guessing they remember VIVIDLY what they read and saw.

The worst of the worst. It's exponentially worse than Nixon and the his tape recordings... as well as all the shredding they did, but at the core it follows the same routine. This time tho it'll be both the crimes and the cover ups that'll get him.

What trump is doing with the doc release is totally transparent to everyone but maga. What truly enrages me tho is the thought of Vance pardoning him upon taking power from him. That would definitely abbreviate vances time as prez but not give the country any closure.

Hope the estate keeps releasing things.

Heck, would love if they literally dumped every thing they have -- documents, bank statements, emails, tax returns, business receipts
