Dems 'Too Judgmental' Of Trump Voters: Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA)
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), a prominent House progressive, said at the Hill Nation Summit Wednesday that he hadn't made a decision on whether to run for president in 2028. Khanna visited South Carolina, a crucial stop on the road to the Democratic nomination, this week. 'Whether I run or whether I get behind someone and have a network that can then support them, I haven't decided,' Khanna said. 'But I do know this: the Democratic Party has not had a compelling economic vision for years. I have a compelling economic vision.' Khanna has made headlines recently for his attempts to force a House vote on releasing government files related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Democrats lean into MAGA infighting over Epstein files
When financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was in the news for his arrest for sex trafficking and eventual death in 2019, Democrats distanced themselves from the onetime donor, disavowing his campaign contributions and condemning conservative conspiracy theories about his death. Six years later, many Democrats and party leaders are leaning into the GOP infighting and far-right anger over the Trump administration's handling of the case, raising the issue in press conferences, social media posts and on the floor of the House. "The American people deserve to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth as it relates to this whole sordid Jeffrey Epstein matter," House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., said Monday. "Democrats didn't put the Jeffrey Epstein thing into the public domain. This was a conspiracy that Donald Trump, Pam Bondi and these MAGA extremists have been fanning the flames of for the last several years and now the chickens are coming home to roost." Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., introduced an amendment to a cryptocurrency bill set for a House vote this week that would compel Attorney General Pam Bondi to "retain, preserve and compile" Epstein-related records and release them within 30 days. Khanna's measure failed on a 5-7 vote in the House Rules Committee, though Republican Rep. Ralph Norman of South Carolina voted with Democrats. On the House floor Tuesday, Democrats raised the issue again, in an unsuccessful effort to force consideration of Khanna's amendment to get all Republicans on the record. Rep. Marc Veasey, D-Texas, also introduced a resolution this week calling for the release of "all" unclassified records on Epstein. Both Democrats told ABC News that the issue underscores the "us versus the elites" dynamic they believe has emerged in politics across America. "It goes to the central question of our times: Whose side are you on? Are you on the side of the American people who feel that rich and powerful interests have their thumb on the scale and haven't given them a fair shake? Or are you on the side of protecting the rich and powerful?" Khanna said. Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., for weeks has led efforts demanding an explanation from the Justice Department about withholding the files. "A lot of the people who believe all these conspiracy theories did so because they were told that they were accurate by the current FBI director [Kash Patel] and [FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino]," he said. Before Trump's election victory, both Patel and Bongino raised questions on conservative podcasts about the withholding of records. Since they have been in office, they have defended the administration's handling of the situation. "There could be two reasons for that. One is that it's all made up for clicks and to make money, and that there's no basis in fact or evidence, or there is some truth to it, and they're trying to hide it,"Goldman added. "People don't like being misled and don't like being promised things that are not delivered. And that's true as it relates to the Epstein files and it's true as it relates to all of Donald Trump's campaign promises," he said. Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin has also raised the issue, telling The Bulwark that Democrats are "going to call [Trump] out" for not sharing more records. The committee also created an X account, called "TrumpEpsteinBot," to tweet about whether the administration has released the files. Some Democrats believe the party should be focusing their messaging on the real-world impacts of Trump and Republicans' policy and legislative agenda. "This all causes divisions in the MAGA base, which serves Democrats well," one Democratic operative told ABC News. "But beyond that, most voters are still going to vote based on their pocketbooks." A White House spokesperson did not respond to requests for comment on Democrats' attacks against the administration over the Epstein case.

House GOP blocks second Dem attempt to release Epstein files
House Republicans on Tuesday voted down another Democratic procedural maneuver aimed at forcing the Justice Department to release documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Why it matters: It's the second time this week Democrats have forced their GOP colleagues to choose between loyalty to President Trump and a MAGA base that is furious at his administration over its handling of the Epstein files. Democrats are already promising future votes: "That was probably not the last time that you're going to see us deal with this issue," House Rules Committee ranking member Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) told Axios. Republicans dismissed the vote as a cynical partisan ploy, with Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) telling Axios: "It's just politics, it's not about protecting little children. And that ticks me off." What happened: The House voted 211-210 against allowing a House vote on Rep. Ro Khanna's (D-Calif.) measure to force the DOJ to publish the Epstein files online within 30 days. Democrats' procedural motion would have scuttled the GOP's legislative agenda for the day in favor of the Khanna bill, making it difficult for Republicans to vote for it. The vote fell along party lines, with all Democrats who were present voting for their party's maneuver and all Republicans voting against it. It came after Republicans on the House Rules Committee voted Monday night against attaching the Epstein language to a broader cryptocurrency and defense funding vote. What they're saying: Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.), who voted for the Khanna measure in the Rules Committee on Monday, told Axios he did so because "I believe in transparency, I believe in putting things on the table." But, with regards to the Tuesday vote on the House floor, he said he believes Attorney General Pam Bondi has "an independent party that's looking at it," which he called "the right course." Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) offered a simpler explanation: Republicans generally vote against such Democratic procedural motions, and this time shouldn't be an exception. The other side: "These guys have [trafficked] in conspiracy theories for as long as I can remember, and it's coming home to bite them in the ass and they don't know how to deal with it," said McGovern. "They riled up a base that is demanding more information, and because they're more afraid of Trump than they are their own constituents, they're providing him a circle of protection," the Massachusetts Democrat added. Yes, but: Despite his party rejecting the Khanna measure, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said in an interview that "we should put everything out there and let the people decide it."
