Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Maryland, is claiming that Jeffrey Epstein should have registered as a foreign agent.<\/p>\n

The lawmaker alleges that emails from the late sex offender show he attempted to use his relationship with President Donald Trump to lobby foreign governments, and these acts should have made him subject to Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) registration.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe find substantial evidence that Mr. Epstein acted to advance the interests of the governments of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait; advised the government of Russia on how to shape its dealings with President Trump; worked as an ongoing consultant for Ehud Barak, the former Prime Minister of the government of Israel; and repeatedly capitalized on his long-term friendship with President Donald Trump to sign up business from these and other foreign governments and actors in the aftermath of President Trump\u2019s first election, without ever registering as a foreign agent,\u201d the Democrat wrote in his letter to top Trump administration officials. \u201cNotoriously sparing with his (typo-ridden) words, Mr. Epstein did not set forth his plans and interactions with foreign dignitaries and state actors in detail. \u2026But our examination of available evidence has already revealed damning indications of Mr. Epstein\u2019s activities on behalf of foreign states.\u201d<\/p>\n

The letter demands that the Department of Justice turn over any information relating to Epstein and several countries, as well as any indication that Epstein\u2019s activity was ever investigated \u201cand if not, on what basis the DOJ declined to initiate such investigations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amazing how he did nothing for 4 years under Biden and covered it up.<\/p>\n

Every Democrat covered it up because he was the Clinton\u2019s best friend<\/p>\n

Meanwhile BILLIONS of taxpayer $$ are being ripped off by fraudsters but the Congressional Democrats refuse to attend the hearings.<\/p>\n

So he\u2019s had 9 years to do this, but now that the (D) has no platform and the DSA aka Communists are taking control he goes back to this desperate topic.<\/p>\n

What did you say or do about Epstein before 2024?<\/p>\n

What did you say about the much much larger abuse of children who were handed over to traffickers by the Biden administration?<\/p>\n

\n

It\u2019s funny how people like Raskin magically care about Epstein\u2019s ties as a foreign agent.<\/p>\n

He has never given a shit unless there was something in it for himself.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t trust his findings because he is a known liar.<\/p>\n
