Calls intensify for the release of Jeffrey Epstein's files. House members wrestles with the issue as they gear up for their final week before an August recess .

Calif., says President Trump should release the Epstein files, but is silent on why former President Biden did not do so for the entire four years of his term.

Democratic senators are now all over Epstein. Van Hollen and Sen. Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, sent a letter to Bondi on Thursday calling for the files’ release. A cadre of others made a series of floor speeches and statements demanding the administration be more transparent about what’s in the files and if Trump has ties to them.

Trump said the release of grand jury testimony linked to Jeffrey Epstein’s indictment will not be “good enough” for those seeking more information on Epstein and his associates.

Donald Trump’s demands for loyalty are so extreme, he comes off as a “wannabe Hitler,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett. The congresswoman made the remarks when discussing Republican efforts to stop the Jeffrey Epstein files from being released, per Trump’s wishes.

Here’s what to know about the disturbing facts and unsubstantiated suspicions that make Jeffrey Epstein, a registered sex offender, a politically potent obsession.

The unreleased evidence notably includes multiple documents related to two islands Epstein owned in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Little Saint James -- where his compound was located -- and Greater Saint James. According to the index, the files include a folder containing Island blueprints, photographs and other documents.

Senate Democrats pressed Pam Bondi and FBI leaders Friday for information about references to Trump in the Epstein files.
