Trump wants the Epstein story to go away. We’re making sure it doesn’t.

Introducing our newest ad campaign pressuring Republicans to release the Epstein files.

Right now Donald Trump is doing everything in his power to make one story go away: the Epstein files. Trump campaigned on a promise to release the files if elected. But since taking office, he has gone out of his way to ensure that they don’t see the light of day, and thrown up distraction after distraction to try to deflect public attention from the story.

That’s creating a major rift inside his own party, as even some traditional Republican allies buck their president. Now, there’s a discharge petition to force the release of the Epstein files, and some Republicans in Congress are signing on. This is a major opportunity to expose Trump’s lies and hypocrisy, while also giving the public the transparency it deserves.

That’s why we’re out with a brand-new ad campaign running in the home districts of nine of the most persuadable Republican members of Congress, telling them to vote to release the Epstein files. You can watch it here:

These ads are live right now in Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—home to Republican Reps. David Schweikert, Juan Ciscomani, Eli Crane, Gabe Evans, Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Tom Barrett, Ryan Mackenzie, Scott Perry, and Derrick Van Orden.

The reason we’re running this campaign is simple: Congress has the authority to make the Epstein files public, today if it wants. These Congress members’ constituents want this information to be public. The victims do, too. The only person who doesn't is Trump. Which begs the question: What does he have to hide?

It’s worth taking a look at the full timeline of Trump’s shady involvement in the Epstein saga:

During his first term, Trump took Alex Acosta, the prosecutor who gave Epstein a sweetheart deal in 2008, and made him his first Secretary of Labor. And Epstein died under suspicious circumstances in federal custody while Trump was still in office. After his accomplice and chief enabler Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested, Trump refused to condemn her and instead said “I wish her well.”

Earlier this year, Attorney General Pam Bondi committed to making the files available. Instead, the White House pulled a PR stunt where Bondi actually released a trove of information that was already public—old news. This disappointed some of the president’s own sycophantic online boosters, leading even dedicated MAGA foot soldiers to say “Pam Blondi [sic] is covering up child sex crimes” and “next the DOJ will say ‘Actually, Jeffrey Epstein never even existed.’”

Then it came to light that Trump wrote a creepy, suggestive note to Epstein for his 50th birthday, saying that the two of them “have certain things in common,” including their shared appreciation for the fact that “enigmas never age.” Trump closed the note by expressing his wish to his friend that “every day be another wonderful secret.” The entire note was written inside the shape of a naked woman’s body, with Trump’s signature suggestively placed.

Next, we learned that Trump himself appears in the files hundreds of times. This makes perfect sense: Trump and Epstein were close friends for decades, with Epstein calling Trump his “best friend” and Trump calling Epstein a “terrific guy” who “likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.” They were filmed and photographed together repeatedly, and Epstein had a framed picture of Trump on his desk, according to one of his victims.

Since then, Trump has gone into full panic mode, doing everything in his power to lure the public’s attention away from the story. So far, that hasn’t worked, but some very real damage has been done by his attempted deflections—including the federal occupations of Los Angeles and Washington DC. Trump’s modus operandi has always been: If you don’t like the conversation the media is having, throw out some sort of ludicrous outrage, and change the conversation. That tactic is on full display right now.

At the same time, his administration has moved Maxwell—who is serving a 20-year prison sentence—to a cushy, white-collar facility from her original location. And Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche sat down with her for a suspiciously friendly and soft-pedaled interview. Angling for a pardon, Maxwell predictably supplied the hoped-for quotes about Trump being a stand-up guy and a “gentleman in all respects” during all her dealings with him, which the White House has been busily trumpeting to its more credulous media allies.

All the while, Trump has been begging, cajoling, and threatening his mouthpieces in the right-wing media ecosystem to shut up about the whole Epstein affair. He’s used to having his loyal influencers toe his line, and he took to Truth Social to attack them for falling for the “Jeffrey Epstein Hoax,” saying: “Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats [sic] work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore!”

So yeah, Trump really, really wants the Epstein story to go away. Which is why our new ad campaign is reminding Republicans in Congress that the public wants something very different: transparency and accountability.

This comes on top of our recent campaign blanketing Washington DC with street ads calling out Trump’s federal police for wearing masks and arresting people without identifying themselves. And it comes just days after we broke the news that former police officers Harry Dunn and Michael Feinberg have joined the leadership of Home of the Brave. And, as Trump plots his next invasion of an American city, we’ll be ready to ensure the public knows the truth about his lies and corruption.

If you want to help us in this fight, we hope you’ll consider supporting Home of the Brave today:
