"Silicon Valley Congressman Ro Khanna admonished President Donald Trump on Monday for expressing sympathy for the British royal family, after King Charles last week finally stripped his younger brother, Andrew, of his prince title after years of controversy over his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Khanna shared a clip of Trump on Air Force One Sunday, being asked about the king's move against his 65-year-old brother."
"I feel very badly, Trump said in the clip, posted on X. It's a terrible thing that's happened to the family. That's been a tragic situation. It's too bad. I feel badly for the family. To that, Khanna told Trump: The tragedy is Andrew losing his title and you feel badly for the royal family? No, Mr. President. The tragedy is the over a thousand victims of sexual abuse. In his post, Khanna also wrote: Pass @RepThomasMassie & my bill to release the Epstein files."
"U.S. Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) speaks at a press conference alongside alleged victims of Jeffrey Epstein at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. on September 3, 2025, announcing the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which calls for the release of all unclassified documents in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, have been leading a bipartisan effort to force the U.S. Justice Department to release all of its files on Epstein."
Ro Khanna admonished President Trump for expressing sympathy for the British royal family after King Charles stripped his brother Prince Andrew of his title following controversy over Andrew's friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, was evicted from a 30-room royal mansion and could face questioning by the FBI, Congress and Parliament over his association with Epstein and alleged abuse of Virginia Roberts Giuffre. Trump said he felt badly for the family; Khanna countered that the real tragedy is the more than a thousand sexual abuse victims and urged passage of a bill to release all unclassified Epstein files.
