Marjorie Taylor Greene Promises to Read aEvery Damn NameA of Epstein
Clients as Trump Decries aDemocrat HoaxA | Video

The Georgia congresswomanAs defense comes as House members demand the DOJ release its collection of Jeffrey Epstein files


A bipartisan cadre of House members, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), urged the Justice Department on Wednesday to release a trove of
files related to Jeffrey Epstein, with Greene vowing to read the names of
his clients from the House floor if theyAre provided to her.

Greene, appearing alongside Epstein victims and Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) near the U.S. Capitol steps, defended the women
against criticism that they could name their abusers themselves. She said
the women had gone through their own traumas and would have to live with
the fear of retaliation if they outed those who abused them.

oThese are some of the richest, most powerful people in the world that
could sue these women into poverty and homelessness,o Greene said. oYeah,
itAs a scary thing to name names, but I will tell you, IAm not afraid to
name names. So, if they want to give me a list, I will walk in that
Capitol, on the House floor, and IAll say every damn name that abused these women. I can do that, for them.o

Greene represents one of the few GOP defectors who signed onto Khanna and MassieAs bill urging the DOJ to release the files. Other signees include
Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) and Nancy Mace (R-SC).

Her promise comes as President Donald Trump and his administration seek to move away from the Epstein story, which they turned into a maelstrom in
July after the DOJ said it would not disclose any more files related to the case. Massie and Khanna have since organized a bipartisan effort to get the DOJ to release its entire collection of files, needing 218 signatories to
pass the House.

One of the victims on Wednesday shared how Epstein would brag about his friendships with high-profile people u Trump chief among them.

oHis biggest brag, forever, was that he was very good friends with Donald Trump,o survivor Chauntae Davies said. oHe had an 8-by-10 framed picture of him on his desk with the two of them. Like they were very close.o

The White House did not immediately respond to TheWrapAs request for
comment on GreeneAs remarks. Trump, however, continued to downplay the
story during an Oval Office press event on Wednesday, labeling it a
oDemocrat hoaxo meant to distract from his accomplishments.

oItAs really a Democrat hoax, because theyAre trying to get people to talk about something thatAs totally irrelevant to the success that weAve had as
a nation since IAve been president,o he said.

Greene, meanwhile, told CNN she urged Trump to host the Epstein victims at
the White House. oThey deserve to be there,o she said.
