Thomas Massie just dropped a bombshell on the House floor.
He named 14 Epstein co-conspirators.
And he’s demanding immediate prosecutions.
“Jes Staley.”
“Leon Black.”
“Les Wexner.”
“David Copperfield.”
“Lapo Elkann.”
“Tom Pritzker.”
“Glenn Dubin.”
“Frédéric Fekkai.”
“Edoardo Teodorani.”
“Jean-Luc Brunel, conveniently dead by suicide in prison.”
“Daniel Siad, recently discovered dead in Paris.”
“Ramsey Elkholy.”
“And Prince Andrew, who committed sex crimes in the United States too.”
“And women like Lesley Groff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women.”
“We’ve introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act II to bring the fight to the state courts, accountability to the Department of Justice, and closure for survivors.”
“We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted.”

@sponge_ruiner@BarnHockey Best defensive player and that's it? He led defensement in points 3 different years, and was top 5 in ponts 13/20 of his seasons played. Also the Hart and Lindsey award is ridiculous, because we all know those are pretty much a forward only award
BREAKING: Israel just blew up the public water reservoir in Mansouri, South Lebanon — cutting off the town’s water supply.
Not a military target.
A water reservoir.
Essential civilian infrastructure.
This is a war crime.
This is an act of genocide.
$900 million for White House vanity projects? Approved.
$1 trillion tax cut for the 1%? Approved.
$1 trillion for war with Iran? Approved.
Lower grocery, housing or gas prices? Sorry, you're on your own.
Money for billionaires. Money for war. Nothing for working people.
When the beefy 5 layer burrito was introduced at Taco Bell in 2009 it was .89 cents. It is now 5 dollars. Even adjusting for inflation it should only be about $1.39.
But nah foods not more expensive don't worry guys!
Hard to even process -- a president selling market-moving information to banks and wealthy investors in advance of everyone else, and personally pocketing hundreds of millions of dollars from it. This alone is more worthy of impeachment than 100 Watergate cover-ups.
.@RepThomasMassie and I are leading the fight against military integration with Israel.
Congress was denied a vote on an amendment to stop it. Now we will fight to strip this provision in the conference between the House and Senate.
I've watched Pete Hegseth testify and anyone who does so with an open mind, will readily see that he is a toxic caricature. He has delusions that he is starring in a war movie.
He is arrogant and ignorant. His narrative never has any depth. He speaks as if what's good and what's right are not even complex subjects, or debates borne of perspective.
He loves American Exceptionalism but believes that it's only defined by musculature and pomposity. He couldn't care less for us being a shining example for others, or a force for a greater good. He couldn't care less for sharing strategy or being accountable.
He creates lasting disdain for America on a global level like few others ever have and make no mistake - this disdain will permeate for generations.
He doesn't present arguments. He doesn't share justifications. He doesn't care for transparency, and the only thing he cares less for than that, is humanity.
As a behaviorist, I can feel the things he's been accused of - like alcoholism and misogyny and reckless sharing of info - underlying his attitude and every utterance, and you can feel how unapologetic he is for any of it.
He is a brazen politician serving an audience of one.
He is a Made for TV concoction, and a vacuous mishmash of hormones and neurotransmitters.
That he's running the US Defense Dept. is incredibly disgraceful, dangerous and disturbing.
