The Brief

Trump reversed course, urging House Republicans to release Jeffrey Epstein case files.

He called the issue a "Democrat hoax" and said Republicans have "nothing to hide."

The bipartisan measure to release the files faces an uncertain future in the Senate.

What they're saying:

"We have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party," Trump wrote on social media shortly after landing at Joint Base Andrews following a weekend in Florida.
