Alleged Epstein co-conspirators named on House floor as lawmaker overrides redactions

An animated Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) took to the House floor Tuesday to publicly reveal the names of six “powerful men” alleged to be co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein, reading their names as a matter of public record.

“There were six wealthy, powerful men that the DOJ hid for no apparent reason!” said Khanna, who alongside Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) had filed the bill that ultimately forced the DOJ to release its files on Epstein. “When Congressman Massie and I pointed this out to the DOJ, they acknowledged their mistake, and now they have revealed the identity of these six powerful men.”

Both Khanna and Massie alleged on Monday that the DOJ was actively protecting the identities of the aforementioned six men, who were identified in a DOJ document as potential co-conspirators of Epstein’s. Their pressure on the DOJ, Khanna said, ultimately forced the agency to un-redact the alleged co-conspirators’ identities, prompting even more questions from the California lawmaker.

“My question is, why did it take Thomas and Massie and I going to the Justice Department to get these six men's identities to become public?” Khanna said. “And if we found six men that they were hiding in two hours, imagine how many men they are covering up for in those 3 million files!”

The names are included in the video below.

Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie?

Ro isn't even the ranking Democrat on the Oversight committee, maybe he should be?

DOJ unredacts more names from Epstein files after pressure - The Hill

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5731080-doj-unredacts-epstein-files/

The Department of Justice (DOJ) this week unredacted multiple names in files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein after pressure from lawmakers.

A top DOJ official announced the action after Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) on Monday decried multiple redactions from the millions of documents released by the administration.....

We have just unredacted Les Wexner’s name from this document, but his name already appears in the files thousands of times. DOJ is hiding nothing,” Blanche added, referring to the billionaire retail tycoon.


A lawyer for Wexner previously told The New York Times that he was not a target of a federal investigation or viewed as a co-conspirator.

The Hill is attempting to reach out to some of the others named in the documents.

Despite Blanche’s claims, Epstein survivor Sharlene Rochard slammed the DOJ early Tuesday.

Moments like this also reinforce why I’ve always been skeptical of assertions this story would never gain traction. I tend to dismiss absolute claims about what will or will not happen, as life repeatedly shows us that a fool's certainty more often than not collapses in the face of new information.

Ever increasing outrage is paired with ever receding accountability. A numbing sense of hopelessness is the intended effect.

Because many of them are on the list. Until the Dems regain control, the names will be hidden.

What they fear the most, accountability.

And they spend a fortune to try to avoid it. (mainly bribes)
