Thomas Massie has done a LOT of annoying and/or sketchy sh** but glad he’s very clearly in the right on this issue

It's not just paper files — we shouldn't forget that an FBI special agent testified at Ghislaine Maxwell's trial that the FBI found CDs and hard drives inside Epstein's safe and CDs filled with photos in other places in the house.

To Trump and his Moronic Blackmailed, Bribed Goons - Truth is a Hostile Act. This Traitor and all his Goons should be on Trial for their Crimes Against Humanity and the support of a Zionist Mass Ritual Sacrifice of mostly Defenseless Women and Children! Such Cowards!

Clearly Trump has something to hide

I've followed Rep. Massie for some time. Not because I agree with him on policy or anything much else for that matter, but he's an interesting man. MIT educated and bright, he is all about transparency and is intellectually honest. I've railed against him but every now & then - like the Epstein scandal - he ends up on the right side of an issue.

Unfortunately, I don't agree with this. He does a lot of posturing to appeal to a certain niche on the right. But has also had a hand in pretty shitty bills like the ones intended to kill USAID, which as we know now from studies is going to result in the deaths of MILLIONS over the next 10 years. Also at the same time, he is a supporter of the MAHA movement and RFK. So, yeah, just because a broken clock is right twice a day, doesn't mean it is actually working. He might be on the right side for once in the Epstein issue but is overall not a good person IMO.

Randy Fine is such a disgusting human being. The way he speaks about Palestinian people is ire evil. Why people voted for him I will never know.

Behind every atrocity, conflict, and scandal is a Jewish Zionist.

People, start writing to every single republican who did not vote, through their official email, on social media, and ask: Do you believe the Epstein files are a hoax too?

Let's go!

I'll be shocked if photos and videos still exist. No doubt the Trumpoids have destroyed them.

Sickening that Republican politicians are so low that they will protect people who sexually abuse minors.

Thanks for the nice reporting, Prem. There are two important considerations: the first is that the victims deserve transparency and justice; the second is that the extreme MAGA Republicans are destroying their credibility, even with their base. The American voters, even MAGA voters, hate pedophiles and will not tolerate protecting them.

Did you watch the whole thing? Strategically, it's good that they have her on board and so visible. She wasn't just hugging - she was adamant that she will pursue justice for these women. Will she follow through? I dunno, there she was out there on video surrounded by all of them saying so. Was it a cynical ploy to appeal to voters? Isn't everything a politician says? She is a terrible person most of the time. I'd rather have a terrible person surprise us than to stick with that stupid leadership bill.

MTG has never before stood up for anything other than insulting Biden and Democrats at large. Do you really think she will play a part in helping them by exposing the Epstein Files? She knows that Republicans will deny everything that could compromise them while she hopes that the Democrats named in them will be forced to resign and this is why she is participating I think.

She is already playing a part.

I don’t know what her motivation is.

I don’t trust her now just because she did this one good thing. She’s still the idiot who blamed Jewish space lasers for something or other I don’t even remember, but I’ll never forget her anti-Jewish racism.

Do people really think that Epstein is dead? The more likely scenario is that they have hidden him
