Rep. Thomas Massie on Sunday said that he plans to read the names of Epstein’s clients on the House Floor before he leaves Congress in January 2027.
While speaking to Kirsten Welker on NBC’s Meet the Press this morning, Massie vowed to use his speech or debate immunity and read the names. Article I, Section 6 of the Constitution provides that, with the exception of Treason, Felony, or Breach of the Peace, Representatives “shall not be questioned in any other Place,” prosecuted, or sued over “any Speech or Debate in either House.”
Massie previously threatened to name the names of Epstein’s coconspirators in September 2025.
Massie told Welker on Sunday that he will read redacted names from the Epstein Files in the coming weeks and months, adding, “There’s still millions of files they haven’t released.”
“Todd Blanche is violating the law,” he said with reference to the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which President Trump signed into law last November, forcing the DOJ to release all files related to the Epstein investigation.
Massie continued, “I don’t think it’s possible to get to convictions with Todd Blanche at the top and with the FBI Director, Kash Patel, at the top because they’ve effectively both perjured themselves by saying that there’s nobody else in the files.”
“Even Melania doesn’t believe that,” he added, referencing a statement by First Lady Melania Trump, where she said, “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.”
Melania continued, “I call on Congress to provide the women who have been victimized by Epstein with a public hearing specifically centered around the survivors. Give these victims their opportunity to testify under oath in front of Congress, with the power of sworn testimony. Each and every woman should have her day to tell her story in public, if she wishes, and then her testimony should be permanently entered into the Congressional Record.”
“The First Lady knows that Jeffrey Epstein didn’t act alone,” Massie said.
