According to Odaily Odaily, the U.S. House of Representatives may vote as early as Tuesday on whether to release documents from the investigation into the sexual assault case of the late billionaire Jeffrey Epstein. President Trump, who has consistently opposed the release of these documents, changed his stance on Sunday, posting that House Republicans should vote on whether to release the Epstein documents, emphasizing that there is nothing to hide. Trump also accused Democrats of deliberately creating discussion surrounding the Epstein case in an attempt to divert public attention. Republicans hold 219 seats in the House, a majority, and some Democratic representatives indicated that at least 40 Republicans are expected to vote in favor of releasing the documents. However, the bill still needs to be submitted to the Senate for a vote, so the final release of the Epstein documents in their entirety remains uncertain.
