Jen Psaki looks at how the Epstein scandal is an actual scandal in places still capable of shame and disgrace, while in the United States, association with notorious pedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has no real consequences.
Rep. Ro Khanna, however, intends to change that, and today named six men who he says were being hidden by the Department of Justice behind unnecessary redactions. - Aired on 02/10/2026.

Lex Wexner? So Epstein was getting boys for Lex too? Lexs sexual tastes are well known in
Central Ohio. I wonder how long will Ohio State have his name up on medical buildings and
other campus places?
And all the other Epstein tie ins with the British ambassador to the United States too. So the British
Ambassador to America let Epstein know insider information about stuff?
No wonder Trump was spending today calling up European leaders and asking them not to investigate
Epstein

(2,505 posts)That's the key thing I got from this video. You may recall that this clause was in the news when Sen Graham tried to use that as his protection for the election interference crimes he committed in Georgia. That was a sham. But the clause itself serves a purpose, specifically to protect the ability of our representatives to speak and debate about things that are essential to their roles as lawmakers. And I don't think there is any controversy about its application to speeches from the well of the Capitol, as Rep Khanna did today.
If the DoJ persists in this cover-up, then Reps should make a daily ritual of trekking to DoJ, then come back and recite every name they have seen. Maybe that is not fair to the people named because they could be completely innocent (not bloody likely). But this may be the best way to force DoJ to stop the cover-up. "You don't want us to recite names out of context? Fine, then follow the law and send us the complete files without redactions. Then the public can see the full context and judge for themselves."

This is not going away. With 9 million documents, this could go on for a long time, and Republicans should be able to figure out their voters are not on the side of Leslie Wexner, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Nicola Caputo, Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, and Leonic Leonov.
