Massie was crucial to forging the Epstein bill coalition. What he's saying here -- that Epstein had CIA and Mossad ties -- is supported by reporting, notably the excellent series at Drop Site on Epstein's as an international power broker. The mainstream media has almost entirely ignored this topic.
Rep. Thomas Massie: Epstein had close ties to our own intelligence agency and Israel's intelligence agencies. That’s why they’re trying to stop this.
