U.S. Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY), who was primaried out of his congressional seat by Trump-endorsed GOP candidate Ed Gallrein, criticized the White House after it posted a photo of President Donald Trump with his mantra, “Promises made, promises kept. LAW AND ORDER restored,” and a claim of “Largest decrease in violent crime since 1937.”
Massie, who went against House Speaker Mike Johnson to persistently push for the complete release of the Epstein files, responded to the White House on social media: “Zero investigations, indictments, arrests, or even so much as a parking ticket for Epstein’s coconspirators. As Melania said, Epstein did not act alone.”

[NOTE: In April, First Lady Melania Trump delivered a rare White House address to deny “unfounded and baseless lies” tying her to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. She said: “I am not Epstein’s victim.”]
In a bizarre speech, Melania Trump denies having any relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
Her decision to give this speech today raises far more questions than the speech itself answers. pic.twitter.com/XTmRM33Ynw

As seen below on Meet the Press, Massie said of those in charge of the Epstein Files: “Todd Blanche and Kash Patel have perjured themselves, claiming no one else is in the files. Melania doesn’t even believe that. Millions of files remain hidden. Billionaires’ names are being withheld. The Epstein Files Transparency Act is law, but the people in charge are violating it.”
“Even Melania doesn’t believe that. The First Lady knows that Jeffrey Epstein didn’t act alone.” https://t.co/n5xqIRu7iJ

U.S. Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA), who worked with Massie to get Congress to act on the Epstein files, responded to Massie: “The DOJ is literally investigating a sexual assault survivor, E Jean Carroll, instead of a single perpetrator in the Epstein files.”
The Justice Department announced this week that it has launched a criminal investigation into E. Jean Carroll, who accused President Trump of sexual assault and defamation and was awarded millions of dollars in damages by juries, which the President is appealing.
[NOTE: Melania Trump also said last month at her White House address: “Now is the time for Congress to act. Epstein was not alone. Several prominent male executives resigned from their powerful positions after this matter became widely politicized. Of course, this doesn’t amount to guilt, but we still must work openly and transparently to uncover the truth.”]
