The Epstein Files are like an onion. The more you peel, the more it stinks.

Jeffrey Epstein’s daily schedule shows he had meetings with several MAGA stars, including Steve Bannon and Peter Thiel, according to documents released by the House Oversight Democrats this morning.
The first two of the four new documents, released by Democrats on the Oversight Committee, show Epstein had a lunch scheduled with venture capitalist and Trump ally Peter Thiel on Nov. 27, 2017, and a breakfast scheduled with former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon on Feb. 16, 2019.
The third document shows that Elon Musk was scheduled to visit Epstein’s island on Dec. 6, 2014. The fourth is a passenger manifest showing Prince Andrew flew to Epstein’s island on May 12, 2000.

House Democrats say the redactions in the released documents are to “protect the identities of Epstein’s survivors out of caution.”
“It should be clear to every American that Jeffrey Epstein was friends with some of the most powerful and wealthiest men in the world. Every new document produced provides new information as we work to bring justice for the survivors and victims. Oversight Democrats will not stop until we identify everyone complicit in Epstein’s heinous crimes. It’s past time for Attorney General Bondi to release all the files now,” said Oversight Spokesperson Sara Guerrero in a statement.

The drop comes at a time when Republicans are reportedly scrambling to stop a vote on releasing the Epstein files.
Following Democrat Adelita Grijalva’s victory in Arizona’s special election, a House resolution by Republican Thomas Massie and Democrat Ro Khanna will have the 218 signatures needed to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Speaker Mike Johnson has previously tabled the vote, while the White House is trying to stop it from coming to the House floor.
Meanwhile, Republicans are trying to pressure three of the petition’s Republican co-signers—Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and Nancy Mace—to remove their signatures.

The Daily Beast has reached out to reps of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Steve Bannon for comment.
On Wednesday, Project Veritas released a video in which federal prosecutor and Epstein investigator Glenn Prager opines that Trump is purposefully blocking the release of the Epstein files to “protect a lot of people.”
He also says he did not find evidence or testimony that Trump himself engaged in criminal activity with Epstein’s victims.
The Department of Justice claimed Prager hadn’t worked for the DOJ for fifteen years and has “no access” to the Epstein investigation, calling the video “clickbait."
