Nancy Pelosi and Elizabeth Warren Throws Full Support Behind Hakeem Jeffries and Ro Khanna, Urging Democrats to Rally and Force a House Vote to Demand the Complete, Unredacted Release of Jeffrey Epstein’s Secret Files

Hakeem Jeffries Blasts Trump and Bondi Over Medicaid Cuts and Epstein Files Cover-Up, Backed by Pelosi’s Call for Democratic Action

Washington, D.C. – In a fiery address that reverberated through the halls of Congress, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) launched a scathing critique of former President Donald Trump and his ally, Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, accusing them of pushing devastating Medicaid cuts while obstructing justice by suppressing the release of Jeffrey Epstein’s controversial files. Jeffries’ remarks, delivered with characteristic intensity, were amplified by the unwavering support of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who joined him in demanding that Democrats unite to force a House vote for the full, unredacted disclosure of Epstein’s documents.

A Dual Assault on Medicaid and Transparency

Jeffries pulled no punches in condemning the Trump administration’s legacy of proposing steep Medicaid cuts, which he argued would disproportionately harm vulnerable Americans, including low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. “The Trump-Bondi agenda is a direct attack on the health and well-being of millions who rely on Medicaid to survive,” Jeffries declared, pointing to past Republican efforts to slash funding for the program during Trump’s presidency. He accused Bondi, a staunch Trump ally, of complicity in these policies, citing her vocal defense of the administration’s healthcare reforms as Florida’s Attorney General.

But Jeffries’ criticism extended beyond healthcare policy. He turned his focus to what he called a “disturbing cover-up” surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case, alleging that Trump and his associates have worked to keep the full scope of Epstein’s files—believed to contain explosive details about the disgraced financier’s network—hidden from public view. “The American people deserve the truth,” Jeffries asserted. “Hiding the Epstein files protects the powerful at the expense of justice for victims and accountability for those involved.”

Pelosi’s Endorsement and a Call to Action

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a towering figure in Democratic politics, threw her full weight behind Jeffries’ demands, signaling a unified front among party leaders. Pelosi praised Jeffries for his “moral clarity” in confronting both the Medicaid cuts and the Epstein files controversy. She urged Democrats to rally behind a bold legislative push to force a House vote on releasing the complete, unredacted Epstein documents, which have been the subject of intense speculation and legal battles for years.

“Transparency is not negotiable when it comes to justice,” Pelosi said in a statement. “Hakeem Jeffries is leading the charge to hold the powerful accountable, and Democrats must stand with him to ensure the Epstein files see the light of day.” Her endorsement underscores the growing momentum within the Democratic Party to address the Epstein case head-on, particularly as public interest in the financier’s connections to influential figures remains high.

Pelosi’s call to action included a specific demand for Democrats to introduce and support a bill that would compel the release of all Epstein-related documents held by federal authorities. Such a move would likely face fierce resistance from Republican lawmakers, many of whom have dismissed calls for transparency as politically motivated. Nonetheless, Pelosi and Jeffries are banking on public pressure and Democratic unity to push the measure forward, potentially forcing a high-stakes House vote that could expose deep-seated divisions in Congress.

The Political and Social Stakes

The dual focus on Medicaid cuts and the Epstein files reflects a broader Democratic strategy to portray the Trump era as one marked by policies that favor the wealthy and powerful while undermining justice and public welfare. Jeffries framed the Medicaid cuts as part of a pattern of neglect for working-class Americans, noting that the program serves as a lifeline for over 70 million people.
