| 0:00.0 | Tonight in a sudden reversal, Trump urges Congress to release the Epstein files. What we know ahead of tomorrow's big vote in the House and what to expect as survivors prepare to speak on Capitol Hill. Then money power politics. The Trump organization is reportedly in talks on a Saudi real estate deal just as the Saudi crown prince arrives in Washington. |
| 0:23.2 | Plus, you reporting on a firm tied to Christy Noam getting big money from the VHS as the 11th hour gets underway on this Monday night. |
| 0:47.8 | Look at that studio. Good evening. Once again. I am Stephanie Ruhl and welcome to MS Now, live from our new headquarters right here in Times Square. |
| 0:55.0 | Well, we are now 350 days away from the midterms and the House is set to vote on whether to release the Epstein files tomorrow. For many months now, the story has been about a few Republicans, like Thomas Massey and |
| 1:00.1 | Marjorie Taylor Green, going against Donald Trump's wishes by pushing for the release of the files. |
| 1:05.3 | But late last night, the President changed his tune, saying he now wants House Republicans to vote yes. |
