On Friday, the DNC launched new digital ads targeting spineless House Republicans who shut down Congress and fled D.C. in an attempt to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files. The DNC\u2019s new ads are airing across several digital platforms \u2014 including conservative spaces \u2014 urging constituents across the country to call their representative and demand the release of the Epstein Files. Americans deserve leaders who will govern with full transparency, not bend over backwards to hide the truth. The DNC is holding Republicans accountable for protecting the rich and powerful \u2014 including Donald Trump himself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Axios<\/strong><\/a>: Scoop: DNC targets vulnerable House Republicans with Epstein ads<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Tal Axelrod, 7\/25\/25]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Democratic National Committee will target MAGA voters with ads about Jeffrey Epstein in a dozen GOP-held House districts at the start of the August recess, Axios has learned. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe ads will run before videos on right-wing YouTube and Meta channels like those of Fox News, Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro \u2013 target-rich audiences for the voters fixated on Epstein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018Call your representative. Demand they release the Epstein files,\u2019 says the ad, while hitting House Republicans for going on August recess without having cast a floor vote to release more Epstein details. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe DNC is seeking to reach up to a million Americans with the five-figure ad campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018Democrats are going to continue to hold the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress accountable for their failure to release the Epstein files and the cover-up that we are witnessing in real time,\u2019 DNC senior adviser Tim Hogan said.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mediaite<\/strong><\/a>: JUST IN: DNC Targeting House GOP in Epstein Files Ads Featuring Marjorie Taylor Greene<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Colby Hall, 7\/25\/25]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Democratic National Committee is launching a sharp-edged digital ad campaign targeting several House Republicans for what the party claims is a coordinated effort to \u2018shut down Congress to bury the truth\u2019 about the Jeffrey Epstein files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe campaign, which Mediaite has learned is part of a digital-only media buy, appears to be aimed directly at conservative audiences \u2014 running brief, punchy pre-roll spots before YouTube videos from figures like Ben Shapiro, Charlie Kirk, and even Fox News\u2019s YouTube channel. It\u2019s a strategic attempt to meet right-leaning voters where they already are online, while also framing GOP leadership as actively obstructing the public\u2019s right to know about Epstein\u2019s ties to powerful figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are currently two versions of the ad live on the Democrats\u2019 official YouTube page. One features footage of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is shown saying, \u2018This is a serious issue,\u2019 and later adds, \u2018The highest volume of calls into my office have been about Epstein.\u2019 That soundbite is followed by stark on-screen text: \u2018Republicans shut down Congress to bury the truth,\u2019 and a call to action: \u2018Call your representative. Demand they release the Epstein files.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washington Examiner<\/strong><\/a>: DNC to target online right-wing audiences with new Epstein ad<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

[David Zimmermann, 7\/25\/25]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Democratic National Committee, starting Friday, is launching a new digital ad campaign targeting online right-wing audiences with the demand that Congress release the Epstein files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTwo ads will run before videos on right-wing YouTube and Meta accounts such as those belonging to Fox News and conservative commentators, Axios first reported. The ads will run for five days in several districts held by House Republicans up for reelection next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the ads, confirmed by the Washington Examiner, features Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) saying her office has received many phone calls about the late Jeffrey Epstein. \u2018Call your representative. Demand they release the Epstein files,\u2019 that ad reads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe other ad shows President Donald Trump conversing with Epstein at a party in 1992. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018Democrats are going to continue to hold the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress accountable for their failure to release the Epstein files and the cover-up that we are witnessing in real time,\u2019 DNC Senior Advisor for Messaging, Mobilization, and Strategy Tim Hogan said in a statement shared with the Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018The American people deserve full transparency, and Donald Trump and his sycophantic enablers are twisting themselves in knots trying to distort the truth.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe five-figure ad campaign targets a dozen House Republicans running in the 2026 midterm elections: Reps. Tom Barrett (MI), Gabe Evans (CO), Brian Fitzpatrick (PA), Ashley Hinson (IA), Young Kim (CA), Mike Lawler (NY), Zach Nunn (IA), Andy Ogles (TN), Chip Roy (TX), Bryan Steil (WI), Derrick Van Orden (WI), and Virginia Foxx (NC). Most of the lawmakers are considered vulnerable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Democratic National Committee (DNC) is launching digital ads targeting a dozen Republican-held House districts, calling for the release of files related to financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne ad features Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) calling the controversy a \u2018serious issue\u2019 and saying the highest volume of calls to her office have concerned the Epstein files, while another calls out the House GOP with the caption \u2018House Republicans shut down Congress to bury the truth.\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA clip of President Trump standing next to Epstein plays in the background of the latter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBoth ads tell viewers to call their representatives and demand that the Epstein files are released. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018Democrats are going to continue to hold the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress accountable for their failure to release the Epstein files and the cover-up that we are witnessing in real time,\u2019 said Tim Hogan, the DNC\u2019s senior adviser for messaging, mobilization and strategy. \u2018The American people deserve full transparency, and Donald Trump and his sycophantic enablers are twisting themselves in knots trying to distort the truth.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe ads accuse House Republicans of shutting down Congress and leaving Washington, D.C., as part of what the DNC alleges is an effort to \u2018bury the truth about Donald Trump\u2019s association with a known sexual predator.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe ads also urge Iowans to contact their representatives and demand the release of the records. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
