US perpetrators must face ‘same consequences’ as Epstein’s UK associates, congressman says
The Guardian ^ | Nov 19 | Emine Sinmaz

The “same kind of consequences” faced by Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein must be inflicted on “perpetrators of heinous crimes” linked to the disgraced financier in the United States, a congressman has said.

Thomas Massie, a Republican representative, also pointed to the sacking of Peter Mandelson, the UK’s ambassador to Washington, as an example of the fallout faced by those with ties to the late pedophile.

Speaking alongside survivors of Epstein at a press conference outside the US Capitol, Massie said: “There’s becoming a reckoning in Britain that needs to happen in the United States: a prince lost his title, the ambassador to the United States lost his job. We need to see those same kind of consequences here.”

“As my colleague Ro [Khanna] said, there shouldn’t be buildings named after these perpetrators of these heinous crimes, there shouldn’t be scholarships named after them, and there needs to be accounting.”

Massie was joined by Khanna, a California Democratic representative who also serves on the House oversight committee that is conducting an inquiry into the government’s handling of the Epstein case.

The pair led the bipartisan effort to force a House floor vote for the complete release of justice department files on Epstein.

President Trump backed the passing of the bill.

The Republicans know the truth helps them.

The Democrats think the bill hurts President Trump.

It appears Massie was played.

No Massie should be thanking Trump, the bill was going nowhere until Trump supported it.

Let me predict how Massie will return the favor, he will stab Trump in the back repeatedly when Trump’s agenda items need support, just like in the past where every time Massie would have been helpful, he drew out a knife instead.

Massie will not end well.

When a politician stoops to Pu$$y Powwer, he becomes a short timer.

This is woke revisited.

How many Americans have royal titles and sweetheart real estate arrangements? If that is how we punish those associated with Epstein, we won’t be going very far.

Sometimes Justice has to come in other forms than sitting in a jail cell . Larry summers just paid a heavy price .

Andrew may not be sitting in a literal jail cell but he has lost everything .

Hillary was denied her coveted title of President.

She should get the Bannon treatment for not testifying. Comer says billy boy has to testify . He may fake a heart attack soon
