WASHINGTON: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) is pressing the Justice Department to release all remaining documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein, and at the same time issued a stark warning about her own safety.
Over the weekend, she used her social media account to declare that she is “not suicidal,” describing herself as happy and healthy and invoking her faith, while adding that if anything were to happen to her, people should question whether powerful figures or foreign governments might be responsible.
Greene has joined a small group of Republican lawmakers pushing a procedural move to force a House vote on legislation that would compel the Justice Department to make public unclassified records tied to Epstein’s activities and investigations. The effort comes as interest remains high in understanding the full scope of Epstein’s network and any influential connections that have not yet been revealed.
Her statement about not being suicidal mirrors the language of long-running speculation around Epstein’s own death, which was officially ruled a suicide in 2019 but has continued to fuel conspiracy theories. Greene did not cite any specific threats against her or provide evidence that she faces immediate danger.
Supporters of the call for transparency say the remaining files could shed light on how Epstein maintained his circle of powerful contacts and how law enforcement handled the case.
Meanwhile, the newest member of Congress, Adelita Grijalva of Arizona, is poised to become the latest signee of the discharge petition once she is sworn in. Grijalva won a special election to fill the seat vacated by her late father and has committed to signing the petition as soon as she takes office. Her addition could bring the total number of signatures to the threshold needed to force a floor vote on releasing the Epstein-related records.
