Bill Clinton has also not been accused of any wrongdoing. Yet lawmakers are grappling with what accountability in the United States looks like at a time when men around the world have been toppled from their high-powered posts for maintaining their connections with Epstein after he pleaded guilty in 2008 to state charges in Florida for soliciting prostitution from an underage girl.

Many unanswered questions remain about the relationship between Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor - formerly Prince Andrew - and Jeffrey Epstein, but the former royal once said they were introduced by Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell, the British socialite who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for sex-trafficking underage girls for Epstein after pleading not guilty, and Mountbatten-Windsor are understood to have enjoyed a close friendship in the '90s and early 2000s, when they were regularly spotted together on the New York and London social scenes.

In his statement, provided by his team, Wexner called himself naive, foolish, and gullible to put any trust in Jeffrey Epstein. I completely and irrevocably cut ties with Epstein nearly twenty years ago when I learned that he was an abuser, a crook, and a liar, he said. To my enormous embarrassment and regret I, like many others, was duped by a world-class con man.

Bass told CNN's Dana Bass that it was "unfortunate" that the organizers of the Los Angeles Olympics are supporting Wasserman amid revelations that he exchanged flirty emails with convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell two decades ago. Bass initially declined to take a position on the drama surrounding Wasserman, saying two weeks ago that it was up to the board of the LA28 Olympics - the nonprofit behind the Games - to decide whether to keep him.

Attorney General Pam Bondi agreed during a Wednesday hearing that Ghislaine Maxwell does not deserve special treatment, but she couldn't identify the reason behind Maxwell's recent controversial prison transfer. Sparks flew between Bondi and lawmakers on both sides of the political aisle when she appeared before the House Judiciary Committee. Things became especially tense on the subject of the Department of Justice's ongoing release of files related to convicted child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein.

Williams went on CNN a few hours later and said the whole thing was rotten. It's kind of a reminder of how awful the pardon power is in our world right now. Because the framers drafted it, did not put any guardrails on it, and for the last 240 years or however long nothing has been done to restrain it, Williams lamented.

"I think Casey Wasserman needs to step down,"

"I was never on Epstein's Plane, or at his 'stupid' Island,"
