"Mace replied: I'm not part of the powerful, I'm not part of the elite. I'm an island of one. I don't get invited to parties, I don't have any friends, I have a dog. So it's not the kind of thing that I would have knowledge of, but nothing surprises me anymore. The kind of corruption that I see at all levels of government, the federal, state, and local level, nothing would surprise me."
"And today was a very symbolic vote. It was about giving power to the powerless and taking power away from the powerful, and that's what people care about today. Mace voted with 426 other members of Congress to release government files related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on Tuesday. Just one member, Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA), voted not to release the files. The Senate also voted in favor of releasing the files."
