Good day and welcome to the Thursday, November the 20th, 2025 edition of Denison Forum's Daily Article

Podcast. Dr. Jim Denison, cultural pastor and theologian, authored today's daily article. I'm Chris Elkins.

Two very disparate stories are headlining the news this morning. First, President Trump stated on social

media last night that he has signed the bill that directs the DOJ, the Department of Justice,

to publicly release all its Jeffrey Epstein-related files. Senators from both parties said the DOJ must

now release the files within 30 days.

Second, the Associated Press is reporting that, quote,

the House voted overwhelmingly yesterday to repeal part of a new law

that gives senators the ability to sue the federal government for millions of dollars

if their personal or office data is accessed

without their knowledge."

The Senate included such a provision in the funding bill that ended the recent government

shut down.

This was in response to reports that the FBI analyzed phone records of as many as 10 senators

in 2023 as part of an investigation into President

Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

The House was blindsided by the provision and has voted to overturn it.

Now, the Senate must decide how to respond.

I have enormous respect for Thomas Jefferson as well.
