Donald Trump is trying to "silence his own party" when it comes to releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files, commentator Adam Kinzinger has claimed.

The ex-GOP representative believes the president is keen to "bury the files," with a fresh focus on them following the end of a 43-day government shutdown. Kinzinger said, "Just like everything else, he denies it, and it's real. And then he calls it a hoax. Now, he's actually calling Republican members of congress on the phone, personally, begging them to remove their names from the discharge petition, the thing that would actually force this for a vote.

"He'll rarely pick up the phone to pass legislation that he plans to support, but he's making calls to block this. Ask yourself why. Ask yourself what a man who is innocent would be doing right now. He wouldn't be trying to bury the files, he wouldn't be trying to silence his own party."...

A Democratic lawmaker had a fiery exchange with a CNN anchor Wednesday over the release of new emails from the Jeffrey Epstein estate that suggest President Donald Trump may have known of the abuse of at least one Epstein survivor, Virginia Giuffre.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) told CNN's Brianna Keilar that the newly released emails were "extraordinarily explosive" and indicated they could "implicate the president," she argued.

The emails suggest "that he not only knew what was happening in Jeffrey Epstein's circle, but that he spent time with at least one, if not multiple, of Jeffrey Epstein's named sex victims, as well as there's discussion in the email that you just cited between Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein about the fact that he had been the 'dog that didn't bark.' And they specifically are talking about the police. So what this implicates is that potentially going back all the way to 2011, even after Jeffrey Epstein had been investigated for criminal activity, not just in sex trafficking, but also for financial crimes, which we know," Stansbury said....
