Demanding the Epstein Files Could be a Smart Move in the Government Shutdown Fight

What's the one thing that Republicans don't want to talk about? They can confuse everything on health care. They can say, no, no, no, illegal, you know, it's really just a plot to get illegal aliens to have free health care or whatever. They can muck it up enough in the news cycle that it's sort of hard to tell what's true and not true. But if the demand is, look, we're all in on the continuing resolution, but we have one minor little condition, and that is we want to see the entirety of the Epstein files, and we want them released on October 3 at 12 noon. That would be... Why are you the only person saying that? Why didn't they think of this? Isn't that... I mean, you say it. To me, it feels like, boy, that's just like simple strategy, and yet I haven't heard it at all. I don't know. I first heard it, actually. There's a guy named Michael Wolff. He does these Instagrams where he talks. Oh, I've seen them. Yeah. He's in a nice kitchen somewhere in, like, maybe, you know, the countryside. He said he had the same idea, which was, look, you know, forget about all this legislative stuff. Just go right to the chase. Put it down there. We're all in if you give us the Epstein files. Well, they could still do it. I agree. I think, I mean, I think that's exactly what they should have done. I mean, if Schumer sees it going the wrong way quickly, that they're losing the battle, which I think we all kind of feel now, why not make the move now? Why not? Why not just say it now? Say, you know what? Fine. Yeah.
