Follow the Money: Why James Comer Won’t Release the Epstein Files
This isn’t just about Trump. This is about a donor class desperate to keep its secrets buried.
The Cover-Up for Donors
House Oversight Chair James Comer controls the Epstein files. He could release them tomorrow. Instead, he sits on them. Why?
Because Comer is bankrolled by the same industries and billionaire networks that swirl around Trump, Epstein, and the protection racket that kept them safe.
Coal barons. Oil giants. Tobacco and Big Pharma. Wall Street financiers. They’re all on Comer’s donor rolls — and they’re exactly the kind of elites we expect to find in the Epstein files.
It doesn’t mean every donor is named in the files. But it means they swim in the same pool. And Comer is protecting the pool.
The Receipts
Here’s where Comer’s money comes from (public record, OpenSecrets):
• New York Cancer & Blood Specialists – $106,150
• Cassidy Organization – $52,800
• AIPAC – $18,400
• Alliance Resource Partners (coal) – $13,200
• Altria (tobacco) – $13,800
• Chevron (oil) – $10,275
• Microsoft – $11,605
• Oracle – $12,820
His leadership PAC (COMER PAC) took another $5,000 each from billionaire coal baron Joe Craft and his wife Kelly Craft — one of the most powerful energy couples in America.
PAC money by sector:
• Health: $119k
• Energy & Natural Resources: $96.2k
• Agribusiness: $89.5k
• Finance/Insurance/Real Estate: $61.5k
• Misc. Business: $128.4k
That’s not “oversight.” That’s ownership.
Why It Matters
Every day Comer blocks the Epstein files, predators breathe easier. Survivors stay silenced. And the donor class he depends on stays protected.
Transparency doesn’t stop when it’s inconvenient for your funders.
How to Apply Pressure
This won’t move unless we make inaction more painful than action.
Here’s what you can do:
1. Call Comer’s office every day. Flood the lines. Staffers track volume.
2. Show up at town halls. Put #ReleaseTheFiles signs in front of cameras.
3. Push hashtags. #ComerCoverUp, #FollowTheMoney, #ReleaseTheFiles.
4. Target his colleagues. Republicans don’t want to go down in an Epstein cover-up.
5. Share the receipts. Let everyone see where his cash comes from.
30-Second Call Script
Here’s what to say when you call:
“Hi, I’m a constituent demanding transparency. Chairman Comer took $106,000 from New York Cancer & Blood Specialists and coal money through Alliance Resource Partners. These are the same elite networks tied to Epstein and Trump. We deserve sunlight. Release the Epstein files immediately, or your donors become the story.”
Closing
Comer thinks delay equals safety. He’s wrong. The longer he stalls, the bigger the scandal.
Release the files, Chairman. Or we’ll make sure America knows who owns you.
