Advocating for them (the government, whatever team they happen to be on) acting on the Epstein files is like asking a toddler nicely to punish themselves. It is not in their best interest to do so, because it hurts their main benefactor, the owning class. The only way to have a shot at this happening is if the government is no longer owned by the owning class. To get there, you'd need to get rid of a number of things:

• the threat of capital flight ("if you do something I don't like, I will take my gizmo factory elsewhere")
• the ability of the owning class to shape the opinions of the electorate through owning the media (social and legacy) they consume
• the ability of the owning class to legally bribe politicians ("if you do this thing I like, you will get a cushy job at my gizmo factory, or I'll pay you 500k to talk at my event for an hour", also super PACs)

Until you get rid of all this, no one (on any side of the aisle) will ever do anything about the epstein files, no matter how many parades/protests you do. Your collective votes do not weigh up against the three points I mentioned. See also the Panama papers.

Oh and voting doesn't work to fix the three points, because the three points ensure that most candidates (on either side of the aisle) do not benefit from doing anything about them, and the ones that do don't have much of a shot at winning (see point 2).
