🇺🇸 Epstein's personal assistant just named names in front of Congress.
Sarah Kellen testified that former Miami Beach mayor Philip Levine, celebrity hairstylist Frédéric Fekkai, and photographer Patrick Demarchelier all sexually abused her.
She also told the committee that Epstein kept connections to Bill Clinton and Fidel Castro, among others.
Her words: "We victims never had a chance."
This is the first time an Epstein victim has ever testified before Congress.
Epstein is dead. Maxwell got 20 years. But the men who allegedly used his network are still walking free, and this testimony may be the first real crack in that wall.

Robert Mueller dedicated his life to this country — as a Marine, a prosecutor, and as FBI Director in the aftermath of 9/11. His steady leadership, integrity, and commitment to the rule of law set a standard we should all strive to meet.
We owe him a debt of gratitude for his decades of service. May his memory be a blessing.
@mdalkldi1918@Acyn Agreed - help the people of Cuba, they will do the rest. Way past time to end embargos, allow businesses to go to Cuba and see what happens.
This is far from normal, as Americans, we should respect our fellow citizens, respect the rule of law, respect the rule of international law, and respect the sovereignty of other nations. The President should represent these foundational ideals of our free society. Help Cuba
Trump: Cuba, it's a beautiful island. Great weather. I will be having the honor of taking Cuba. Whether I free it, take it. I think I can do anything I want with it, if you want to know the truth
Former Army JAG here. No quarter orders are a violation of the law of war and Geneva conventions.
This is the same order reportedly given during the Caribbean boat strikes. @SecWar is establishing a pattern of issuing illegal orders.
I’ve trained hundreds of soldiers on the law of war — our service members have an obligation to follow that law.
Last week, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen FBI agents and staff as retribution for a Trump probe.
The group Patel targeted? An elite counterespionage unit that specializes in Iran.

@GorillaExplorer@AP This is a disaster, blowback on members of Congress should be immediate! This is OUR dollars paying for services that WE WANT! Let our most effective screening processes work for us, why would anything less be acceptable to anyone. This is not safe.
@AP Shutting down TSA PreCheck and Global Entry isn’t ‘fiscal responsibility’ — it’s the government holding travelers hostage because it can’t manage its own mess. When basic airport security becomes collateral damage, that’s not governance. That’s failure dressed up as policy.
