Congressional Republicans on Tuesday overwhelmingly approved a
bill to release all of the files related to the sex offender
Jeffrey Epstein — a bill that President Trump spent months trying
to kill.

The Times correspondents Anni Karni and Carl Hulse explain how a
rebellion started by a handful of Republican lawmakers became a
partywide mutiny, and Representative Thomas Massie talks about
his role in bringing about the vote.

Guest:

Annie Karni, a congressional correspondent at
The New York Times.

Carl Hulse, the chief Washington correspondent
for The Times.

Representative Thomas Massie, Republican of
Kentucky.

Background reading:

The vote to approve was a stunning turn for an effort that
Republican leaders had worked for months to block.

For Mr. Trump, the Epstein scandal is the story that won’t go
away.
