Rep. Thomas Massie walked onto the House floor Monday night and did something extraordinary: he said the names out loud.

More than a dozen people he identified as alleged Epstein coconspirators.

No euphemisms. No hiding behind vague references. Names.

Here’s his list:

Jes Staley. Former head of JPMorgan's private bank and later CEO of Barclays, he managed Epstein as a client for years, and the UK's Upper Tribunal upheld the FCA's ban on him holding senior finance roles on June 26, 2025, finding he recklessly approved a letter that misled regulators about a friendship in which he had called Epstein one of his "deepest" and "most cherished" friends. The Tribunal reduced his fine to roughly £1.1 million.

Leon Black. Co-founder of Apollo Global Management who paid Epstein $158 million for tax and estate advice between 2012 and 2017 according to the Dechert review commissioned by Apollo's board, stepped down from the firm in 2021, and later drew a Senate Finance Committee inquiry into whether the arrangement was used to avoid more than $1 billion in gift and estate taxes. Trump nominated his son Benjamin Black to lead the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation in January 2025, and the Senate confirmed him that October.

Les Wexner. Billionaire founder of L Brands and Victoria's Secret, who employed Epstein as his money manager beginning in the late 1980s and gave him sweeping power of attorney, and who denied firsthand knowledge of Epstein's criminal activity in a February 2026 deposition before the House Oversight Committee; a 2019 FBI document released this year identified him as a "co-conspirator."

David Copperfield. The Las Vegas illusionist, who appears in numerous photos and messages released by the DOJ and whose friendship with Epstein was examined by federal investigators; an allegation that he touched an Epstein accuser improperly surfaced in a court filing by attorney Bradley Edwards seeking a deposition that never happened.

Lapo Elkann. Italian businessman and grandson of Gianni Agnelli, whom DOJ records show Epstein called a "friend," with contact dating to at least 2009, though he is the least documented figure on this list, has not been widely linked to Epstein's orbit in the released files, and faces no documented allegation of wrongdoing.

Tom Pritzker. Former executive chairman of Hyatt Hotels, who retired and left the board in February 2026 citing his Epstein association, and whom Virginia Giuffre alleged in a 2016 deposition she was trafficked to; he vehemently denies the allegation and said he "exercised terrible judgment in maintaining contact with" Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Glenn Dubin. Billionaire co-founder of Highbridge Capital, whose wife Eva Andersson-Dubin had previously dated Epstein, who made Epstein godfather to their children and paid him a $15 million fee for brokering Highbridge's sale to JPMorgan; Giuffre testified in a 2016 deposition that Maxwell directed her to have sex with him.

Frédéric Fekkai. French celebrity hairstylist and salon founder whose Fifth Avenue salon Bloomberg documented in March 2026 as a recurring venue in Epstein's perks network, with DOJ invoices and credit card records showing Epstein spent thousands there for himself and others; Epstein's former assistant Sarah Kellen told congressional investigators that Fekkai sexually assaulted her in the early 2000s.

Eduardo Teodorani-Fabbri. Italian executive and nephew of Gianni Agnelli through his mother Maria Sole Agnelli, a former top manager at Exor, Fiat, New Holland and CNH International, who by Il Fatto Quotidiano's count appears 1,251 times in the Epstein files across exchanges covering parties, real estate tips, and social introductions running from at least 2010 into 2019.

Jean-Luc Brunel. French modeling agent and MC2 founder, charged with the rape of minors and held in Paris's La Santé prison from December 2020 until he was found dead in his cell in February 2022, accused in U.S. court documents of procuring young women for Epstein and named by Giuffre in her 2016 deposition.

Daniel Siad. French modeling scout, found dead on July 20, 2026 at his home in Colombes outside Paris, whose name appeared in nearly 2,000 documents in the DOJ files and who was accused by at least five women of rape and human trafficking. At least 24 women have come forward since prosecutors opened the probe in February 2026.

Ramsey Elkholy. New York and Los Angeles based model manager and musician, whose interactions with Epstein the Washington Post documented in more than 100 emails spanning a decade beginning in 2009, in which he offered to introduce women to Epstein; document-indexing sites put his file appearances far higher, but those counts are not independently verified.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew. Accused of sexual abuse by Giuffre, who alleged Epstein trafficked her to him, an allegation he denies along with ever having met her, and which he settled in a 2022 civil suit without admitting wrongdoing; King Charles III stripped him of his titles in October 2025, and on February 19, 2026 Thames Valley Police arrested him on suspicion of misconduct in public office tied to his role as British trade envoy, releasing him about eleven hours later under investigation with no charge.

Lesley Groff. Epstein's executive assistant from 2001 until his 2019 arrest, who scheduled his appointments and coordinated travel, named as one of four potential co-conspirators granted immunity under the federal non-prosecution agreement signed in 2007 and implemented with Epstein's 2008 plea, and identified as a "co-conspirator" on a 2019 Justice Department list. The SDNY investigation into her closed in December 2021 without charges; she sat for a closed-door House Oversight interview on June 9, 2026, and survivors told CNN in July that she was untruthful.

We will NOT forget, nor will we stop making noise about it!!!

We will never forget and as you can see, the pressure continues. After the midterms, with oversight and the power of subpoena, things will change. Accountability will happen. 2027 and 2028 will be years to remember.

Bondi didnt want to crawl outta the swamp to get in the gutter as she calls it . That gutter is morally heaven compared to the nasty putrid swamp that surrounds the WH and DC courthouses that have been disclosed as toxic ....and worse than the worst poverty driven mainstays of America

No argument here Dotty. Let's continue to focus on what we have control over and vote in the midterms and start fixing these problems.

A lot of people were involved in the prosecution of Epstein. What about their files?

Epstein files are sufficient to bury Trump, which is why he is fighting so hard. There ought to be a way to get them.

Mitch Jackson's avatar

Absolutely. We'll get the files once there's a new majority in Congress and through the power of subpoena and oversight. The Department of Justice and the FBI will be compelled to produce documents, whether they like it or not. Right now with the current Congress, it's just not going to happen. I'm looking forward to 2027 and 2028. They will be years to remember.

If Trump and his cronies are in charge don't you think all the evidence that points to Trump and friends would have been destroyed by now? How much you want to bet Ghislaine Maxwell gets a commuted sentence or a pardon! She may even get some of that $$ just stolen for his Trump slush fund.

Mitch Jackson's avatar

Of course all of that is a possibility but the problem is the criminal implications to anybody that has illegally destroyed documentation and evidence. I actually don't think that's happened. I do think, with the new Congress after the midterms and with oversight in the power of subpoena, we will see public hearings and the Department of Justice and FBI will be held accountable for production and prosecution or lack thereof. It takes time but the reality is, elections have consequences and we're now experiencing the consequence of the 2024 election.
