After months of delays, House Republicans have released tens of thousands of pages of documents from Jeffrey Epstein's estate, after Democrats earlier publicized emails suggesting that President Trump was aware that Epstein was abusing and trafficking young girls and women. In one of those emails, Epstein wrote that Trump "knew about the girls." Trump's allies say the larger set of documents released Wednesday afternoon provide evidence of Epstein's later animosity towards Trump and support Trump's claims that he was not previously aware of Epstein's crimes. Still more evidence — namely, photographs and videos — may soon be publicized, as a petition for the House to vote on the full release of the "Epstein files" received its final signature from newly-sworn in Congressmember Adelita Grijalva. "There is a lot more to come," says Spencer Kuvin, a lawyer who represents several survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse and who has reviewed much of the still-unreleased evidence, which is currently under a court protection order. "The FBI does have more information that needs to be released."

Even as President Trump has cracked down on dissent and sent troops into multiple cities, organizers of Saturday's anti-authoritarian "No Kings" protests expect millions to join at least 2,500 rallies across all 50 states and several U.S. territories. The turnout could surpass the 5 million protesters who turned out for "No Kings Day" events in June.
"We are engaging in the most American activity in the world, which is coming together in peaceful protest of our government," says Leah Greenberg, co-founder and co-executive director of the progressive organization ?Indivisible. Trump's threats against the protests are a "classic exercise of the authoritarian playbook, to try to create fear, to try to threaten, to try to make people back off preemptively," she adds.
"There will be no fear, but the fear of what will happen to us if we don't mobilize," says Byron Sigcho Lopez, alderperson of the 25th Ward in Chicago, where mass protests are expected.
