Survivors Rally Outside Congress
On September 2, survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse gathered outside Congress in Washington DC.
They demanded full transparency on Epstein’s files and called directly on President Donald Trump to support them instead of dismissing the matter as a “Democrat hoax.”
Survivors Promise to Compile Their Own List
Lisa Phillips, abused by Epstein in the late 1990s, told reporters:
“We know their names. We all know. Now, together as survivors, we will confidentially compile the names we all know who were regularly in the Epstein world.”
“We Are the Keys”
Another survivor, Haley Robson, said:
“The FBI knows the truth, the government knows the truth. But we are the keys, we know who was involved…we know the players.”
She accused politicians of exploiting their trauma instead of pursuing justice.
Epstein Files Released, But Few Revelations
Earlier this week, the House Oversight Committee released 33,295 pages of Epstein-related files.
They included flight logs, emails, and court filings.
Videos and photos were also made public, showing images of Ghislaine Maxwell without clothes on, but survivors said little new evidence emerged.
Call for Epstein Files Transparency Act
Sky Roberts, the brother of Virginia Giuffre, spoke in favor of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
He said the bill is about “justice against the rich and powerful who have stolen something from these women, and many children at the time, their freedom.”
Fears of Retaliation
When asked why names were not revealed publicly,
Lisa Phillips replied: “Look what happened to survivors who have revealed names.”
Their lawyer added that women fear being sued or attacked, since “nobody protected them the first time.”
Trump Denies, Dismisses Questions
President Trump denied knowing about Epstein’s crimes.
He brushed off questions, calling the matter a “Democrat hoax.”
He said: “Nobody is ever satisfied. They’re trying to get people to talk about something that’s totally irrelevant… I think it’s enough.”
Links Between Trump and Epstein
Survivor Chauntae Davies alleged Epstein often bragged about his friendship with Trump.
She said Epstein kept a framed picture of himself with Trump on his desk. Trump, now 79, insists he had no knowledge of Epstein’s abuse.
Survivors Demand Justice
Outside Congress, victims spoke of scars that may never heal.
“This is not a political issue… this is about humanity,” said Sky Roberts.
Survivors vowed not to let the case fade, warning they are prepared to reveal what they know if justice is denied.
