The House voted nearly unanimously to require the attorney general to release the Epstein files. The vote was 427-1, with Republican Clay Higgins casting the lone “no” vote. Democrat Troy Carter says no matter who’s named in those files, they need to be held accountable.
Cut 3 (10) “…brought to justice.”
So far about 50-thousand pages of evidence have already been released. Carter says that only scratches the surface.
Carter says the evidence takes on many forms.
Cut 5 (13) “…actual video footage.”
The measure now moves to the Senate, and Carter believes they could vote this week to send it to President Trump’s desk for his signature. Even though he had previously gone to great lengths to prevent the vote from happening, Trump has now said he would sign the measure should it reach his desk.

Ole Miss has led the Rebels to a 10-1 record this season, but his success in Oxford has led to LSU and Florida both attempting to hire him as their next coach. There are several reports that Kiffin’s family members toured both Gainesville and Baton Rouge this week. Wilson Alexander of the Advocate says if Kiffin is going to leave Ole Miss for LSU, he wants assurances that there will be enough NIL dollars to build a championship roster…
Alexander says reports out of Oxford suggest that Ole Miss does not want Kiffin coaching the Rebels in the college football playoffs if he plans on leaving for LSU and Florida. He says that’s why we may know soon whether Kiffin will be the next head coach of the Tigers…
