A stunned Capitol press conference erupted as Rep. Robert Garcia’s voice thundered on December 10, 2025: “This is a cover-up—release Epstein’s files fully, now!”
The California Democrat, flanked by survivors Annie Farmer and Haley Robson, slammed the DOJ’s partial disclosures under the Epstein Files Transparency Act (deadline December 19). “Grand jury transcripts unsealed December 5–10 show investigative failures,” Garcia roared, eyes blazing. “But redactions shield elites—Trump’s ties, Clinton’s flights, Andrew’s island visits. This is a cover-up. Release Epstein’s files fully, now!”
The room—packed with reporters, advocates, lawmakers—hushed as Farmer added, voice trembling: “Virginia Giuffre named Andrew 88 times in Nobody’s Girl—her truth toppled him October 30. She died April 25 fighting silence. Partial files retraumatize us.” Robson demanded: “No more protection for predators.”
Garcia accused Attorney General Pam Bondi of delays: “Trump signed the Act—now his DOJ buries truth.” The White House called it “partisan theater”; Bondi defended “victim privacy.”
The outburst, viewed millions live, trended #ReleaseEpsteinFiles with 4.2 million posts (78% supportive). As December 19 loomed, Garcia’s thunder—raw, unrelenting—amplified Giuffre’s legacy: her fight against elite complicity now a congressional roar, demanding the buried truth surface unredacted.
