Calls for transparency on Epstein came from several Republicans on Capitol Hill on Wednesday. And Trump's own former vice president, Mike Pence, called for the administration to "release all of the files" regarding the Epstein investigation.

President Donald Trump has gone to great lengths in recent days to quash the Jeffrey Epstein fervor in his party. It doesn’t seem to be working — and one particular effort to force the release of more files could spiral out of his control.

Several Trump backers have called for more transparency after Pam Bondi's Justice Department announced that no more files would be released.
