Thomas Massie Vows to Release More High-Profile Names Linked to Epstein Before Leaving Office

Outgoing Rep. Thomas Massie said he would release more high-profile names from the Jeffrey Epstein files in the months before his term ends. He accused Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche of withholding key evidence and claimed federal authorities are concealing the network’s scale. Massie said victims’ lawyers have not received their own 302 forms and that files have been over-redacted. He stated he previously released names of investor Leon Black, former banking CEO Jes Staley, and businessman Leslie Wexner.

So, if we can't get this attorney general and this FBI director to do the right thing, the next ones who take those seats are obligated by law to release the files that these individua"
