Rep. Thomas Massie says he will publicly identify individuals linked to Epstein files before leaving Congress

Outgoing Rep.Thomas Massie, a Republican from Kentucky who recently lost his re-election bid after seven terms in Congress, has pledged to continue his efforts to expose information related to Jeffrey Epstein during his remaining time in office.

In an interview on NBC News’ 'Meet the Press' with Kristen Welker, Massie stated that he intends to publicly identify individuals whose names appear in Epstein-related files, arguing that significant portions of the investigative materials have not been released or have been heavily redacted.Massie claimed that millions of documents connected to the Epstein case remain undisclosed by the Department of Justice.

He also referenced information reportedly provided by victims’ attorneys, including unreleased FBI 302 interview forms, suggesting that the investigation files are incomplete.According to Massie, the lack of transparency makes it difficult to pursue accountability or potential convictions.

He further alleged wrongdoing by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and criticized FBI Director Kash Patel, accusing them of misrepresenting the completeness of the Epstein records.

During the interview, Massie confirmed he plans to continue naming individuals he believes are connected to Epstein’s network, citing legal protections under the Speech or Debate Clause, which shields members of Congress for statements made on the House floor.He argued that this protection allows him to speak more freely without fear of prosecution.Massie also suggested that Epstein did not act alone and implied broader involvement by unnamed individuals.

His remarks come amid ongoing public and political debate over the full release of Epstein-related investigative materials and the extent of transparency in federal handling of the case.His statements have drawn attention due to their potential political and legal implications as his congressional term nears its end.
