Congressman Thomas Massie says commerce secretary ‘has a lot to answer for’ over ties to late convicted sex offender
US House member Thomas Massie has called for the commerce secretary, Howard Lutnick – a fellow Republican – to resign over his ties to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Massie, who co-authored a law mandating the release of the so-called Epstein files, appeared Sunday on CNN’s Inside Politics and said Lutnick, a staunch Donald Trump ally, “has a lot to answer for”.
“Really, he should make life easier on the president, frankly, and just resign,” Massie said. Alluding to how the Epstein scandal has roiled UK politics, including by costing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor his title as a prince and Peter Mandelson his US ambassadorship, Massie added of Lutnick: “If this were Great Britain, he’d already be gone.”
Nutlick has zero shame, if he quits it’s b/c he knows he’s going to jail and no amount of fluffing Trump will stop that. Trump will throw him under the bus.
When are they going to ask for the pedo in chief to resign?
When he wears out his usefulness and starts to endanger their wallets.
We’re not asking, 🔫
Is that a super soaker full of piss? Because we need more of that.
Massie: We need to get rid of Epstein’s BFF, the notorious ally to a child sex trafficker can’t be allowed to remain in power. We need to focus all our attention and energy on the most important one. I’m talking of course about - you know who I’m going to say…
…Howard Lutnick.
How dare he put Trump’s agenda in jeopardy!
I love how the Americans point to Andrew losing his titles as being the big story in the UK. He never mattered. We’ll happily crucify him. No big deal.
The fall-out from Mandelson is much more impactful. Our PM is currently fighting for his position just because he appointed somebody with links to Epstein. The equivalent is Trump getting kicked out for appointing Lutnick, even after he’s fired him and several advisors.
Also, because there’s a tiny amount of daylight between the scandal and the sex trafficking, it’s bringing focus on the information brokerage aspects of the Epstein and other circles.
Because Americans are statistically very stupid and care about titles and royalty as it’s a source of cultural fascination for them. They created their own version of “royalty” with celebrity worship.
Well, we’re statistically very sexy too.
I mean. It’s not nothin.
You’re statistically morbidly obese.
We prefer thicc
Yall should prefer salad

TBF Starmer was already in rough waters
Trump isn’t? Polling numbers look horrendous.
Trump isn’t. Poll numbers don’t matter a single bit.
US republicans are a cult and they vote in a bloc everytime. Everytime. They will never get rid of trump as long as they hold the majority.
Labour isn’t a religious cult but I get you
Much worse is needed to happen to these people than resignation
Burn them all.
Although, if this was britain, maybe his PA would resign.
If it was anyone else, there might be a violent arrest.
Meanwhile in Norway:
Norwegian ambassador resigns as she faces scrutiny over contacts with Epstein
It would be real nice to see him gone, at least we’d stop seeing him in Canada peddling bullshit in an official capacity.
