Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) publishes daily vetted fact checks from verified IFCN-approved sources. Each claim is independently reviewed for accuracy and context.


Claimant: David Crowley (D)


Claim: Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Tom Tiffany “voted to block the release of the Epstein files.”


Rating: FALSE


Explanation: Tiffany voted in November 2025 for the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which required the Justice Department to release unclassified Epstein records. His earlier July vote concerned a procedural measure involving an amendment to an unrelated cryptocurrency bill, not a direct vote against releasing the files.
