Will Epstein Files Release Put Out The Political Firestorm?

Both the House and the Senate have overwhelmingly passed the Epstein File Transparency Act, launching the process to release long-sealed Justice Department records on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. This is a move that could expose powerful figures and trigger major political fallouts. Republican strategist Colin Reed joins the Rundown to break down how the disclosures may reshape the political landscape ahead of the midterms and why both parties are bracing for what comes next.  The Restore Trust in Congress Act seeks to strengthen ethical standards and safeguard public confidence by prohibiting members of Congress from leveraging non-public, insider information for personal stock trading by members of Congress.  Congressman Tim Burchett (R-TN), a leading advocate for banning stock trading in Congress, joins to examine the proposed legislation’s real potential to curb the practice, the unusual bipartisan momentum behind the effort, and his views on UFOs—including his conviction that the government has not been fully transparent about what it knows.
