The near-unanimous House vote and immediate Senate action signaled a rare, national refusal to look away from systemic abuse.
The DOJ’s hedging and talk of “new information” raised alarms about transparency, redactions, and whether power will protect itself again.
Survivor-led organizing is shifting the culture—turning private harm into collective force and refusing to let this fight be minimized or siloed.
Susan Demas is joined again by Epstein survivor Jess Michaels. They move the focus to what this week actually changed: survivors proved they could push Congress past the political fear that stalled this issue for decades, and the public response showed how widespread the demand for accountability has become. Jess’s clarity about the rage beneath the relief reframes the vote as a first step, not a resolution, especially as the DOJ signals it may narrow what “full transparency” means. The conversation keeps returning to the scale of unseen harm—how many people finally recognized their own stories in this fight and how many more are watching what happens next. Jess brings that reality into sharper view by insisting the real danger now is silence creeping back in through redactions, delays, or intimidation. Her work around survivor community and early-intervention support underscores what accountability should look like beyond Congress: care, connection, and refusal to disappear.
Tune in to this essential conversation with Jess Michaels.
