Something strange is happening in Washington, and Rep. Thomas Massie says it’s no coincidence. Massie claims he now has the 218 votes needed to force the release of the Epstein files — yet Congress remains in recess. He says the timing isn’t accidental: leadership is dragging its feet precisely because they fear the vote would the compromised pedophiles in D.C.
TPV reports: Massie’s petition, filed alongside Rep. Ro Khanna, would compel the DOJ to reveal all unclassified records tied to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. By now the petition has secured signatures from nearly every Democrat and four Republicans, leaving just one more to hit the crucial 218-vote threshold. But the House hasn’t reconvened.
Massie’s publicly asked: “Why are we in recess? Because the day we go back in session, I have 218 votes.”
The plot thickens when you add the reveal that Trump is coming after him. Trump’s political operation has launched a campaign to unseat Massie in the 2026 primary, marking the first time the former president has turned his fire so squarely on a sitting GOP House member.
Massie, a libertarian-minded Republican who has bucked party leadership on war and spending, now finds himself besieged from two fronts: the system he’s trying to expose, and the party he represents.
For those who believe that powerful figures use institutions to conceal wrongdoing, this is exactly the kind of chess move you’d expect: “Recess until the heat dies down.” But Massie isn’t taking the hit quietly — he’s saying the doors will burst open from the inside, and the Epstein files will see daylight.
The question now is: will Congress reconvene before that happens, or will it stay on hiatus until the moment passes?
