A Democrat Representative just said the quiet part out loud about Donald Trump after the latest Epstein documents dropped
Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives from California’s 36th congressional district, Ted Lieu, is putting forward some serious allegations against Donald Trump, his administration, and the Republicans. He is claiming that Trump is attempting to shift blame onto the Democrats because he is guilty of committing crimes against underage women, as revealed in the Jeffrey Epstein Files and other related documents.
Appearing before the press on Tuesday, Representative Ted Lieu asked those present to reflect on the reasons behind the Republicans’ interest in Bill and Hillary Clinton, noting that it is because they are trying to distract the people from the fact that Donald Trump features in the Epstein Files “thousands and thousands of times.” Elucidating further, Lieu mentions the existence of “highly disturbing” allegations against Donald Trump of “raping children” and “threatening to kill children” in the Files and urges the press to “go look” at these allegations.
Ted Lieu then went on to discuss the United States deputy attorney general, Todd Blanche, who, during his Monday appearance on Fox News, said that it wasn’t a crime to party with Jeffrey Epstein and that people named in the files were unlikely to be prosecuted without further evidence. While speaking to host Laura Ingraham, Blanche said:
Well, look, I’ll never say no, and we will always investigate any evidence of misconduct, but as you know, it’s not a crime to party with Mr. Epstein. So as horrible as it — it’s not a crime to email with Mr. Epstein. Some of these men may have done horrible things, and if we have evidence that allows us to prosecute them, you better believe we will. But it’s also the kind of thing that the American people need to understand that it isn’t a crime to party with Mr. Epstein.”
Calling him out on these comments, Lieu said that Blanche “got the law wrong,” stressing that if Epstein was involved in “human trafficking minors” for “sex parties” and people showed up and patronised the establishment, then they were guilty, as it was part of the “sex trafficking law.” He even remarked that Blanche needed to resign for not knowing the law properly, stating that the Department of Justice violated the law and the dignity of several people who were affected by Epstein’s activities by releasing multiple pictures of victims unredacted. Further discussing the shortcomings of Blanche in his area of work, Lieu brought up Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s partner in crime (quite literally) and highlighted how she was transferred into a minimum security prison and provided with a puppy to keep her company. Lieu believed that, for this reason, too, Blanche should resign from his job.
