WASHINGTON — The House voted overwhelmingly in favor of a bill Tuesday to force the Justice Department to publicly release its files on the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a remarkable display of approval for an effort that had struggled for months to overcome opposition from President Donald Trump and Republican leadership. When a small, bipartisan group of House lawmakers introduced a petition in July to maneuver around House Speaker Mike Johnson’s control of which bills reach the House floor, it appeared a longshot effort — especially as Trump urged his supporters to dismiss the matter as a “hoax.” But both Trump and Johnson failed in their efforts to prevent the vote. Now the president has bowed to the growing momentum behind the bill and even said he will sign it if it also passes the Senate. Moments after the House vote, Senate Majority Leader John Thune said his chamber will act swiftly on the bill. The bill passed the House 427-1, with the only no vote coming from Rep. Clay Higgins, a Louisiana Republican who is a fervent supporter of Trump. He said in a statement that he opposed the bill because it could release information on innocent people mentioned in the federal investigation. The decisive, bipartisan work in Congress Tuesday further showed the pressure mounting on lawmakers and the Trump administration to meet long-held demands that the Justice Department release its case files on Epstein, a well-connected financier who killed himself in a Manhattan jail while awaiting trial in 2019 on charges he sexually abused and trafficked underage girls. “These women have fought the most horrific fight that no woman should have to fight. And they did it by banding together and never giving up,” said Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene as she stood with some of the abuse survivors outside the Capitol Tuesday morning. “That’s what we did by fighting so hard against the most powerful people in the world, even the president of the United States, in order to make this vote happen today,” added Greene, a Georgia Republican and longtime Trump loyalist. The bill’s passage would be a pivotal moment in a yearslong push by the survivors for accountability for Epstein’s abuse and reckoning over how law enforcement officials failed to act under multiple presidential administrations. A separate investigation conducted by the House Oversight Committee has released thousands of pages of emails and other documents from Epstein’s estate, showing his connections to global leaders, Wall Street powerbrokers, influential political figures and Trump himself. In the United Kingdom, King Charles III stripped his disgraced brother Prince Andrew of his remaining titles and evicted him from his royal residence after pressure to act over his relationship with Epstein. The bill forces the release within 30 days of all files and communications related to Epstein, as well as any information about the investigation into his death in federal prison. It would allow the Justice Department to redact information about Epstein’s victims or continuing federal investigations, but not information due to “embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity.” Trump’s reversal on the Epstein files Trump has said he cut ties with Epstein years ago, but tried for months to move past the demands for disclosure. Still, many in the Republican base have continued to demand the release of the files. Adding to that pressure, survivors of Epstein’s abuse rallied outside the Capitol Tuesday morning. Bundled in jackets against the November chill and holding photos of themselves as teenagers, they recounted their stories of abuse. “We are exhausted from surviving the trauma and then surviving the politics that swirl around it,” said one of the survivors. Another, Jena-Lisa Jones, said she had voted for Trump and had a message for the president: “I beg you Donald Trump, please stop making this political.” The group of women also met with Johnson and rallied outside the Capitol in September, but have had to wait months for the vote. That’s because Johnson kept the House closed for legislative business for nearly two months and refused to swear-in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva of Arizona during the government shutdown. After winning a special election on Sept. 23, Grijalva had pledged to provide the crucial 218th vote to the petition for the Epstein files bill. But only after she was sworn into office last week could she sign her name to the discharge petition to give it majority support in the 435-member House. It quickly became obvious the bill would pass, and both Johnson and Trump began to fold. Trump on Sunday said Republicans should vote for the bill. Yet Greene told reporters that Trump’s decision to fight the bill had betrayed his Make America Great Again political movement. “Watching this turn into a fight has ripped MAGA apart,” she said. How Johnson is handling the bill Rather than waiting until next week for the discharge position to officially take effect, Johnson held the vote under a procedure that requires a two-thirds majority. But Johnson also spent a morning news conference listing off problems that he sees with the legislation. He argued that the bill could have unintended consequences by disclosing parts of federal investigations that are usually kept private, including information on victims. “This is a raw and obvious political exercise,” Johnson said. Still, he voted for the bill. “None of us want to go on record and in any way be accused of not being for maximum transparency,” he explained. Meanwhile, House Democrats celebrated the vote as a rare win. House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries described it as “a complete and total surrender.” Senate plans to act quickly Even as the bill cleared his chamber, Johnson pressed for the Senate to amend the bill to protect the information of “victims and whistleblowers.” But Senate Majority Leader John Thune showed little interest in that notion, saying he doubted that “amending it is going to be in the cards.” Thune said he would quickly assess senators’ views on the bill to see if there were any objections. He said the bill could be brought forward in the Senate as soon as Tuesday evening and almost certainly by the end of the week. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer also indicated he would attempt to pass the bill Tuesday. “The American people have waited long enough,” he said. Meanwhile, the bipartisan pair who sponsored the bill, Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif., warned senators against doing anything that would “muck it up,” saying they would face the same public uproar that forced both Trump and Johnson to back down. “We’ve needlessly dragged this out for four months,” Massie said, adding that those raising problems with the bill “are afraid that people will be embarrassed. Well, that’s the whole point here.”

EXCLUSIVE DETAILS: Arizona Dad’s Oldest Daughter, 17, ‘Knew He Would Commit Suicide’ Before Prison — After He Accepted Plea Deal For Causing Death of Toddler He Left in Boiling Car
Nov. 7 2025, Published 6:36 p.m. ET The eldest daughter of an Arizona man who killed himself just before he was due to report to prison for the death of of his 2 year old toddler said she wasn’t surprised he “took the easy way out,” RadarOnline.com can report. Christopher Scholtes had agreed to a plea deal accepting the blame for the child’s death, after he “forgot” she was baking outdoors in her car seat while he was inside his home getting drunk and surfing for porn. Scholtes Committed Suicide Scholtes took his own life Tuesday night. He was scheduled to report to prison the following morning. The 38-year-old also shares 10-year-old and 6-year-old daughters with his current wife and has a 17-year-old daughter from a previous marriage. The teen, who has a two-year-old toddler of her own, lives with a guardian away from her dad, after her biological mother died last year. The guardian, Lindsay Eisenberg, said when she told the girl what happened, she was emotionless. “She said, ‘I knew he was going to do this, I knew he was going to commit suicide’. Then she asked if her sisters were OK,” Eisenberg told the Daily Mail. The Teen had Just Sued Her Dad and Stepmother The teen, who was estranged from her dad, had accused Scholtes of abuse multiple times in the past. And just last week, she filed a lawsuit against him and his current wife, Erika, for emotional distress. She was also seeking damages over her half-sister’s death, according to the complaint. Scholtes was previously investigated nine times on allegations of neglect, as well as physical and emotional abuse against the girl, between June 2014 and December 2020. Among the allegations were reports that he would slap the child and spank her, leaving bruises on her body. In one instance, Scholtes allegedly “slapped the child, causing them to lose their breath,” and left the child to “manage their diabetes without parental oversight.” Accusations of Emotional and Physcal Abuse Other reports detailed accusations of verbal abuse, including using derogatory names. A report also claimed Scholtes “yells at the child excessively and tells the child things to break them mentally, such as calling them by foul names and referring to them as ‘a mistake.'” The girl was said to have been experiencing “suicidal ideation due to their father and stepmother treating them differently than the other children in the home and calling the child names.” However, in every one of the cases, the allegations were eventually deemed unsubstantiated, as there was not enough evidence to support them. Instead, “the child was assessed as safe in Mr. Scholtes’ home,” and “the family was provided with information on services available in the community and the case was closed.” Scholtes Left His Daughter to Die As RadarOnline.com has reported, Scholtes left his youngest child in the car after running some errands and returning home. Prosecutors said the father-of-three cracked open a few beers he shoplifted earlier in the day, played some video games, and searched for porn on his PlayStation – all while his toddler daughter, Parker, was still in her car seat. He later admitted he was aware that the car engine in his vehicle turns off after 30 minutes, at which point there would be no air conditioning. Medical examiners said temperatures in the 2003 Acura climbed as high as 109 degrees over the three hours Parker was trapped inside.

Alleged ‘764’ Cult Follower Charged With Child Sex Crime Amid Crackdown On Terror Network
Federal prosecutors on Monday charged a 19-year-old California man linked to the extremist “764” cult with a string of crimes, including child sexual exploitation, animal abuse, and online threats.
A federal grand jury in the Eastern District of California indicted Tony Christopher Long on six felony counts, including sexual exploitation of a minor, possession of child sexual abuse material, cyberstalking, and transmitting interstate threats, according to the press release. Long remains in state custody on related charges.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said Long’s alleged crimes highlight the brutality of the “764” movement.
“This defendant allegedly engaged in acts of extreme cruelty by exploiting a child, abusing animals, and threatening violence. His conduct reflects the depravity of ‘764,’” Bondi said. “These networks seek to terrorize and destabilize our communities by preying on the most vulnerable, and the Justice Department will stop at nothing to dismantle this network and bring offenders to justice.”
FBI Director Kash Patel said the agency is pursuing the case aggressively.
“The FBI has no tolerance for anyone who preys on children or other vulnerable members of society,” Patel said. “This defendant allegedly targeted juveniles, took part in animal crushing, and was part of a violent online network which seeks to sow chaos and destabilize our society. The FBI will work with our law enforcement partners to investigate and hold accountable anyone who engages in such reprehensible and illegal activity.”
If convicted, Long faces up to 30 years in federal prison for sexual exploitation of a minor and additional decades for the remaining charges.
Court documents describe Long as a member of “764,” a Nihilistic Violent Extremist group that seeks to destroy social order through chaos, violence, and the exploitation of vulnerable victims, including minors.
The FBI previously indicted a man known as “White Tiger,” who allegedly persuaded a 13-year-old girl in Washington to take her own life on behalf of a cult-like group. German prosecutors charged him with hundreds of crimes, including murder and widespread child exploitation, tied to an international campaign of online abuse targeting more than 30 victims.

Trump warns New Jersey faces hotbed of crime, skyrocketing energy prices if Mikie Sherrill elected
President Trump issued a strong warning to New Jersey voters early Monday, cautioning that Democratic gubernatorial candidate Rep. Mikie Sherrill would transform the Garden State into a hotspot of crime, soaring energy prices—and “HEARTACHE!”
In an early morning post on Truth Social, the former president criticized both Sherrill and Virginia’s Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Abigail Spanberger, urging voters to swing right this election season.
“Why would anyone vote for New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial candidates, Mikie Sherrill and Abigail Spanberger, when they want transgender for everybody, men playing in women’s sports, high crime, and the most expensive energy prices almost anywhere in the world?” Trump questioned.
He continued, “VOTE REPUBLICAN for massive energy cost reductions, large-scale tax cuts, and basic common sense!”
Highlighting his administration’s energy policies, Trump claimed, “Under President Trump, ME, gasoline will come down to approximately $2 a gallon, very soon! With the Democrats, you’ll be paying $4, $5, and $6 a gallon, and your electric and other energy costs will, likewise, SOAR.”
The former commander-in-chief emphasized that voters in New Jersey and beyond would enjoy “a great and very affordable life” if Republican candidates prevail in the upcoming election.
“All you’ll get from voting Democrat is unrelentingly high crime, energy prices through the roof, men playing in women’s sports, and HEARTACHE!” he added.
This latest salvo follows prior attacks by Trump against Sherrill throughout her campaign. Over the weekend, as early in-person voting began in New Jersey, he labeled her a “corrupt radical left Democrat,” declaring, “She’ll be a travesty as the governor of New Jersey.”
Despite Trump’s criticisms, Sherrill currently holds a five-point lead over Republican gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciattarelli, standing at 50% to 45% in the latest Rutgers-Eagleton poll of likely voters.

Posible atacante en serie en Brooklyn: le cortó el rostro a tres personas en el lado izquierdo
Un presunto atacante en serie que hiere a sus víctimas en el lado izquierdo del rostro está siendo buscado por la policía en Brooklyn. Así lo informó The New York Post, citando fuentes policiales.
De acuerdo con el medio, los ataques ocurrieron entre el sábado y el domingo, dejando a tres hombres heridos de forma similar y generando alarma entre los residentes del condado.
El primero de los incidentes tuvo lugar alrededor de las 6:30 de la mañana del sábado, cuando un hombre de 37 años fue agredido dentro de un tren Q en dirección norte, a la altura de la estación Church Avenue. La víctima sufrió un corte profundo en el lado izquierdo de la cara y fue trasladada al Hospital del Condado de Kings, donde se mantiene en condición estable, según el reporte citado por The New York Post.
El segundo ataque ocurrió cerca de las 9:40 de la noche del mismo día, en la intersección de Foster Avenue y New York Avenue. En esta ocasión, un hombre de 53 años resultó herido de manera casi idéntica: un corte en el lado izquierdo de su rostro. También fue llevado al mismo hospital y se encuentra fuera de peligro, indicaron las fuentes policiales citadas por el diario neoyorquino.
El tercer incidente se registró poco antes de las 7:00 de la mañana del domingo, frente al número 3311 de Newkirk Avenue. La víctima, un hombre de 56 años, resultó herida con el mismo patrón y fue trasladada al Hospital del Condado de Kings, donde permanece en condición estable.
Aunque la policía no ha vinculado oficialmente los tres casos, una investigación preliminar sugiere que el mismo individuo podría estar detrás de los ataques.

EXCLUSIVE: Meet Madeleine McCann’s Twin Siblings — And How They Have Carved Out Their Own Lives Amid Tragedy
Oct. 24, 2025, Published 7:15 p.m. ET
Madeleine McCann’s twin siblings, Sean and Amelie, have lived most of their lives under the long shadow of one of the world’s most haunting mysteries. Now 20, RadarOnline.com can reveal the pair have quietly emerged as accomplished young adults – carving out their own paths while preserving the hope that has defined their family since Madeleine’s disappearance in 2007.
Growing Up in the Shadow of Loss
When Madeleine vanished from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, her brother and sister were only two years old, asleep in the same room.
In the 17 years since, parents Kate and Gerry McCann have fought an unrelenting campaign to keep the search alive, while protecting their younger children from the glare of global media.
This week, the twins’ lives briefly intersected again with the case that has defined their family, as they gave evidence in the trial of two women accused of stalking the McCanns.
A family friend said: “Kate and Gerry were determined that the twins would have a real childhood, not one defined by what happened to their sister. They’ve done everything they can to make sure Sean and Amelie grow up as their own people, not just as part of the tragedy.”
Kate, now 57, has previously spoken about the challenge of balancing that normality with the protective instincts born from trauma. She gave up her job as a GP to be at home full-time. Writing in her memoir Madeleine: Our Daughter’s Disappearance and the Continuing Search for Her, she revealed how difficult it was to trust anyone else to look after them.
“They have their own friends and they keep busy and they’re really sporty,” she writes. “But their only wish is for their big sister to come home.”
Sean McCann’s Drive and Determination
That sense of routine, family, and purpose has carried the twins into adulthood. Sean, a promising freestyle swimmer, has competed in open-water events across Europe and is said to be targeting a place at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
He is studying chemical engineering at university, juggling academic work with a grueling training schedule.
A sports source claimed: “He’s unbelievably disciplined – in the pool before most people are even awake. That routine has been his anchor since childhood, a way of staying focused through everything the family has endured.”
Amelie McCann’s Quiet Strength
Amelie, meanwhile, has pursued her own interests, taking part in triathlons and cross-country competitions while studying at a northern university.
A close family acquaintance said: “Amelie’s strong-willed and quietly confident, with a real sense of empathy. She doesn’t seek attention and keeps a tight circle, but her bond with her parents is unshakable.”
The twins have largely stayed out of public view, though Amelie made a rare appearance at a vigil for Madeleine last year, telling the crowd, “It’s nice that everyone is here together, but it’s a sad occasion.”
Her composure was widely noted – a quiet reflection of the resilience the McCanns have always tried to instill.
Living Beyond the Tragedy
Kate’s uncle, Brian Kennedy, said recently the family is proud of how Sean and Amelie have flourished.
“They’re making their own way in life,” he said. “Kate and Gerry couldn’t ask for more.”
Yet psychologists say the weight of growing up amid such tragedy can never be entirely escaped. Dr. Audrey Tang, a chartered psychologist, said, “You’ve got all this narrative going on around them that they’re not necessarily able to process. And they’ve actually lost their sister; they’ve been through something awful.”
For all the attention that continues to surround the McCanns, their twins have managed to do what once seemed impossible – to live, quietly and determinedly, beyond the tragedy that changed their family forever.

Report warns reforms are fueling rise in Colorado violent crime
As part of efforts to lower its prison population, a recent report found that both incarceration rates and arrests in Colorado have declined sharply over the past decade. The state’s rate of recidivism—when a convicted criminal reoffends—has also decreased. However, this does not necessarily mean that crime is decreasing.
Instead, the report attributes these declines to a prioritization by lawmakers on leniency. This approach has largely led to reductions in recidivism, arrests, and the overall prison population.
“Over the past two decades, Colorado has pursued a steady course of criminal justice reform aimed at reducing the footprint of the state’s correctional system,” the report stated. “Lawmakers have prioritized leniency: lower sentences for drug offenses, expanded parole and probation opportunities, and restrictions on law enforcement discretion.”
This tension between enforcement and leniency is reflected in the state’s crime trends over the past decade. From 2014 to 2024, the number of arrests declined by nearly 30%. Similarly, Colorado’s recidivism rate fell by 40% between 2008 and 2019—ranking as the third-highest decline of any state nationwide.
“In 2008, Colorado had the country’s fifth highest recidivism rate,” said DJ Summers, the institute’s director of communications and research operations, during a press conference about the report on Tuesday. “Now the state’s recidivism has dropped to a more average rate.”
The decline in arrests has played a significant role in this progress. Between 2016 and 2024, the total number of inmates in Colorado’s prisons and jails decreased by 12%. This drop was largely due to a significant reduction in the prison population in 2020, when many inmates were released early amid public health concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2020, the prison population has been slowly increasing again—though it remains below levels seen in the 2010s.
Despite these positive trends in incarceration and recidivism, the report warns that the overall picture is more complex. From 2014 to 2024, Colorado’s violent crime rate increased by more than 55%.
Looking more closely between December 2019 and December 2021, the report found that while the number of inmates in state prisons fell by over 20%, the violent crime rate rose nearly 25%.
“Arrest counts and violent crime have been shifting at inversely proportional rates, meaning that as arrests decrease, violent crime increases,” the report noted.
Summers added that Common Sense Institute conducted an analysis showing a “strong correlation” between decreases in arrests and prison population and increases in crime.
Furthermore, even with the decline in the recidivism rate, 31% of inmates released by the Colorado Department of Corrections still return to prison within three years.
The report argues that it is time to refocus the state’s priorities away from leniency and toward deterrence, accountability, and public safety.
“The state’s challenge is no longer to reduce its correctional footprint; it is to restore accountability and deterrence without abandoning compassion,” the report stated. “Colorado must find a middle ground between punitive excess and permissive neglect.”

Prince Andrew Begged Staff and Pals to ‘Arrange Girls’ to Have Sex With Him — With ‘Blondes’ and ‘Ballerinas’ His Favored Type
**Prince Andrew Allegedly Had Network of Allies Arranging Women for Him, New Claims Reveal**
*Published: Oct. 23, 2025, 4:00 p.m. ET*
Prince Andrew reportedly had a network of close allies who “arranged girls” for him to have sex with, according to new claims revealed by RadarOnline.com. The disgraced royal, nicknamed “Randy Andy,” allegedly begged staff and friends to hook him up with various women, showing a particular preference for “blondes” and “ballerinas.”
### Preference for ‘Blondes’ and ‘Ballerinas’
The former Duke of York, who was forced last week to give up all his titles amid the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein scandal, urged everyone around him to find women he could date. According to biographer Andrew Lownie, this behavior led to Andrew sleeping with women “he didn’t realize were prostitutes.”
Even his personal protection officers (PPOs), paid for by British taxpayers, were reportedly involved in these efforts. In Lownie’s new book, *The Rise and Fall of the House of York*, he writes:
> “He would spy out an attractive ballerina at the Royal Ballet and then send his (PPO) … to invite her to meet the prince.”
Other tactics reportedly included sending aides to invite women to his table at London nightclub Chinawhite or to join him in his hotel suite while abroad.
### Following Orders
Lownie also notes that Andrew’s staff frequently requested that attractive women be invited to events. A private secretary reportedly specified, “He likes blondes,” to which one consul responded, “I’m a diplomat, not a pimp.”
Andrew, 65, resigned as the U.K.’s special trade envoy back in 2011 after criticism of his ties to multimillionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. However, during his travels in this role, Lownie claims:
> “It was rumored Andrew brought women with him and that he liked to stay in hotels rather than the (Royal) Residence, as it gave him more independence in whom he saw, whether women or businessmen.”
Stories circulate of escorts, masquerading as professional women, being provided for him to choose from.
### Andrew Always on the Prowl?
Andrew was also reportedly close to Epstein’s associate and madam Ghislaine Maxwell. He allegedly “exploited” his royal connections, including his position as patron of the English National Ballet (ENB). According to one ENB staffer, Andrew had been somewhat “foisted” on the organization after Princess Diana passed away in 1997.
His interest, it seems, was more in the dancers than the ballet itself. Lownie writes:
> “When he did attend, he insisted on choosing who would sit with him in the royal box.”
The ballet official added:
> “The names were not given to the ENB. It was suspected they consisted of mistresses, one a yoga teacher, and various businessmen. The chairman was allowed in at intermission for a drink.”
### Allegations by Epstein Victim Virginia Giuffre
Virginia Giuffre, a victim of Jeffrey Epstein who tragically died by suicide in April at age 41, claimed she was forced to sleep with Andrew three times. She reiterated these claims in her memoir, published posthumously this week.
Andrew, who settled a civil suit with Giuffre in the U.S. in 2022 by paying out millions, continues to deny these allegations.
### Andrew Relinquishes Titles Amid Ongoing Accusations
In the days before the publication of Lownie’s book, Andrew announced he was giving up his titles, including the Duke of York. He stated that the “continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family.”
