Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) on Sunday pushed for Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to resign after his name appeared in files linked to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“Trump’s Commerce secretary, Howard Lutnick, said that he and his wife decided around 2005 to cut ties with Jeffrey Epstein,” host Manu Raju said on CNN’s “Inside Politics.”
“But the latest release shows that there was some correspondence after that, even after Epstein pleaded guilty to sex crimes in 2008. What questions do you have about Lutnick’s ties to Epstein, and should he come before Congress and testify?” Raju asked.
“No, he should just resign. I mean, there are three people in Great Britain that have resigned in politics. The ambassador from Great Britain to the United States, the prince lost his title for less than what we’ve seen Howard Lutnick lie about,” Massie told Raju in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.

Fair enough. Always among the creepiest of this term.
Of course not. Massie should resign.
Massie is creepy too. His quick transformation from a slobby frumpy nerd to a butterfly and a quick remarriage is rather odd.
There is a clash between Congress and the administration
Bondi testifies this week and Massie will be asking her questions
A lot of people on twitter want him to run for president
In nearly every thread it gets mentioned seemingly
don’t be ridiculous. He’s a genius. Mandelson literally got caught with his pants down. If your standards say Howard should resign then say goodbye to POTUS.
Harvey Levin was in the files too, should he resign from TMZ
I learned a wonderful thing a few days ago about Lutnick....just WONDERFUL!
yep and that guy is still in charge of the LA olympics those around him are standing by him so go figure
Should you get teh zot?
One email? Epstein's assistant contacted Lutnick?
This is what Massie is spending his valuable time on?
Dem traitor Massie was trashing Trump and the GOP again on CNN.
You a paid Massie poster and the deperate Dem plant need to be
Removed from this site and the GOP.
WE don’t need more Dem plants here
“””This is what Massie is spending his valuable time on? “”
mASSie (D)oosh
What is the supposed purpose of why Bondi is testifying? Who made this request the Democrats?
His post on Facebook:
“We were legally married in Kentucky on October 19th”.
So romantic. /S
...
“We will reside on the farm in Kentucky where Carolyn recently helped me re-establish ducks and chickens to go with the beef cattle...
“...first met professionally over a decade ago when she worked for Senator Rand Paul. As Senator Paul’s Ag policy staffer until 2016, Carolyn was a very early proponent and practitioner of Making America Healthy Again. She even visited me and my late wife Rhonda on our grass-fed cattle farm several years ago. Carolyn has not previously been married.”
Fun facts about our wedding: Of course we served raw milk with the wedding cake and margaritas made with frozen peaches from our farm! Senator Rand Paul and Representatives Jim Jordan, Warren Davidson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Victoria Spartz attended...”
hes way way too interested in this Epstein stuff...very odd.
It isn’t a lot of people. Many are democrats who like Massie because he likes to do damage to us that benefits the democrats.
There are going to be people mentioned in these files that did not break any laws other than contact with Epstein at one time or the other.
Ask yourself why Massie never mentions any the most prolific Epstein buddies in the democrat party? Epstein was not a republican.
Has Massie ever suggested a democrat resign?
Any before and after photos? I just searched and he still looks like a slobby nerd
