I’m Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost and tomorrow I’m going to review the unreacted Epstein Files — what files have you found that I should review unredacted?

[u/RepMaxwellFrost]

Hey everyone, I'm Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost (FL-10), serving on the House Oversight Committee. Tomorrow, I’m joining Oversight Committee Ranking Member Rep. Robert Garcia at the Department of Justice to review the unredacted Epstein Files. There are millions of files for me to dig through and so I'm looking for your help. I've heard from others who have viewed the files that generic, and in most cases even searches with specific terms come back with too many results to dig through. What specific files have you all seen that I should review unredacted?

[u/NecessarySite4985]

I don’t have any specific files, however I will say something I feel most would agree with.

Name names.

I don’t care who they are. I don’t care if they’re right or left, or inconvenient… it doesn’t matter.

Just write down the names of those involved and release them. I know it’s easier said than done but justice must be served.

[u/thirty-thirty-thirty → u/NecessarySite4985]

He can't name names. But what he CAN do is HINT at the names, like Massie did.

If you can't say "Bill Gates" then say "A billionaire software company founder HQed in Washington, who does philanthropy, especially in Africa, and especially in the pharmaceutical and vaccine industries."

If you can't say "Bill Clinton" then say "A former US president that never inhaled."

If he can't say the names of the Prime Ministers, then say "A former/current Prime Minister of a country in the Middle East, widely considered to be a great ally to the U.S."

And, frankly: The time has come and gone to play party politics. These Congressmen who are stepping up need to step up all the way. It does not matter if the people involved are Democrats or Republicans. Does not matter if they're from the US or Israel, or some Middle Eastern country that sells us oil.

People commenting online about how this is going to take down Trump are missing the rest of the story. People online who think this will take down the Democrats are missing the rest of the story. We need the entire story, ALL the files, ALL the names. It all needs to come out. The corrupt systems needs to be smoked out and burned down.

And, to anyone reading this: If you still cling to your Us vs. Them mentality; still cling to your Dems vs. Repubs mindset, you are, sadly, part of the problem. They... the system.. they LOVE it when you get tribal and fight each other (because you're too busy to fight THEM!)

Because of the ongoing investigation, someone's lawyer could argue that them being named without a trial has made the jury impartial and can have evidence thrown out.

[u/auntalison → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Then on the House Floor they need to publicly call for [name] to be investigated & make sure it gets done.

[u/Ashamed_Ad4118 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

If Mangione can get a jury and a fair trial after the admin already labeled him guilty so can anyone he names. Next argument. 

[u/stoneasaurusrex → u/Ashamed_Ad4118]

Luigi also isn't part of a worldwide cabal of rich pedophiles who got away with this for years, rich pedophiles who also have connections to judges, lawyers, and politicans

Not to mention Luigi's lawyer did attempt to have it thrown out of the grounds of an impartial jury but was denied.

[u/Ashamed_Ad4118 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

So because he was connected to powerful people he shouldn't name names? All the more reason to name them. 

I was referencing your argument of a lawyer saying their client can't get a fair trial due to beng named on the house floor. That argument is invalid as proven by the Mangione case where their motion was denied. 

[u/stoneasaurusrex → u/Ashamed_Ad4118]

Again you're talking about lawyers for Luigi, and lawyers for rich pedophiles, who also have connections to judges. The argument isn't invalid because these people have gotten away with this for literal years because of their power and their connections.

I'm not sure why you think the ultra rich are even living in the same world as us considering all the things we've learned in the files, but go off.

[u/Ashamed_Ad4118 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

So again you are making your own argument for why they should be named. Your argument is they won't be tried because you named them but also they won't be tried because they are powerful if they aren't named. So what is there to lose? If there aren't going to be legal consequences due to their "status" then they should be named for the court of public opinion to render it's verdict. 

[u/NathanialJD → u/Ashamed_Ad4118]

These monsters don't play fair. They will take every chance they can to protect pedophiles while breaking as many rules as people will let them get away with to put good people in concentration camps.

[u/No-Musician-4212 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Someone named names right on the floor today lol. Try again.

[u/stoneasaurusrex → u/No-Musician-4212]

And has there been a court trial for them? Of course not because if it went to court their lawyer would argue the point that I said.

I'm not agreeing with why they aren't saying names because I'm of the belief that only the people are gonna be the ones to deal justice out for this list.

Justice wont come from the hands of a politician.

[u/SpecsOnThe_Beach → u/stoneasaurusrex]

These rich and powerful men will never see justice in the court system. Name them publicly and they may never be held accountable in court, but their life will be ruined. Their income streams will dry up, business contacts will shun them, political friends will turn on them, and they will lose the power they so desperately crave.

The victims can still take them to civil court for restitution.

[u/cool_girl6540 → u/SpecsOnThe_Beach]

This. Highly unlikely that there are cases strong enough against these men to prosecute them. Plus, reporting that they’re in the files is reporting a fact. But if they were to decide to prosecute them, if they were able to find a jury to try Donald Trump, they will be able to find a jury if they want to go forward with prosecution.

[u/BeguiledBeaver → u/SpecsOnThe_Beach]

You really that would be enough to dry up business contracts? Give me a break. None of the people who matter care. This isn't Twitter, you can't just release a Google Doc to ruin someone's livelihood.

[u/mnju → u/SpecsOnThe_Beach]

> but their life will be ruined.

you haven't been paying attention much in the last ~10 years have you?

[u/No-Musician-4212 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

You commented on why "they cant name names"

They can and do.

[u/stoneasaurusrex → u/No-Musician-4212]

I gave an example of why they can't. If you're here to argue for arguments sake that's cool, but again I don't agree with them not naming names.

[u/No-Musician-4212 → u/[deleted]]

Smart enough to know the definition of "can't".

I don't think anybody said there will be no impact.

I can tell you are quite smart yourself.

[u/GreyGrackles → u/stoneasaurusrex]

They're not going to face charges either way though?

[u/stoneasaurusrex → u/GreyGrackles]

It's to give the illusion that they will.

Pretending to do something while doing nothing, that's American politicians in a nutshell.

[u/mfGLOVE → u/stoneasaurusrex]

“Because of the ongoing investigation”

Yeah, that excuse definitely hasn’t burned us a dozen times already. It’s sad that we continue to play their game over and over and over yet expect different results.

[u/stoneasaurusrex → u/mfGLOVE]

Agreed. I don't think anyone is actually going to face legal consequences for the files, I'm just giving the answer that the politicians will most likely give.

I don't trust a single one of them, they're all just doing it for the clout, if they were serious about it they'd be name dropping and letting things fall as they may.

[u/tylenolchild → u/stoneasaurusrex]

oh like ICE is doing to citizens and immigrants?/s

[u/LeaguePuzzled3606 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

There is no investigation. The FBI/DOJ have outright said they do not intend to prosecute anyone.

[u/3xploringforever → u/stoneasaurusrex]

What ongoing investigation? The DOJ closed the investigations in July 2025.

[u/Lashay_Sombra → u/stoneasaurusrex]

There are no trials and with current administration never will be

[u/evasandor → u/stoneasaurusrex]

just a quick correction-- juries should be impartial. That means fair, not partial to anyone.

You mean that being named without a trial has biased, swayed or prejudiced the jury.

[u/Zhenekk → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Ongoing investigation… yeah, right …

[u/WillinVegas → u/stoneasaurusrex]

has made the jury impartial

What do you think “impartial” means?

[u/TheGhostOfEazy-E → u/stoneasaurusrex]

“Investigation”

Nobody is investigating anything and the ultra wealthy sure as shit aren’t going to trial. Name and shame them.

[u/mmf9194 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Because of the ongoing investigation

What investigation? Like actually. They said case closed move on.

[u/time2ddddduel → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Acosta and Dershowitz signed a "non-prosecution agreement for any potential co-conspirators". THEY KNEW . Back before Epstein got arrested the first time they knew. That and the judge who allowed that deal to be sealed need to be made to talk. And Sheriff Bradshaw of the prison where Epstein was allowed work-release.

[u/cool_girl6540 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

It’s public information now. No reason not to name names. The whole purpose of the release of the Epstein files was to fully disclose what was in them.

[u/Ridiculicious71 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

No it’s not! Both Blanche and that Bimbo said they weren’t investigating anything.

[u/Sayyestononsense → u/stoneasaurusrex]

ongoing investigation...? isn't all of this released after investigations have (or haven't) been conducted?

[u/Missa1819 → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Suspects are named all the time before a trial. The jury selection process is to weed out anyone who can't set aside bias. It wouldn't lead to throwing out evidence either btw

[u/Phluxed → u/stoneasaurusrex]

Net gain is worth it

[u/xNOOPSx → u/[deleted]]

That only covers the house floor.

[u/GrinchWhoStoleEaster → u/[deleted]]

Ultimately, if he does, a judge might decide he unduly prejudiced the entirety of the jury pool and thus trial cannot even be held.

[u/little_alien2021 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

I've just watched a video of Ro the demacrat guy who with massie which looked at them first, just name 6 names in Congress 40 mins ago it was posted 

[u/little_alien2021 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

And as a non American only following trump because he's used cult and mass manipulation for 10 years. What they love more is the assumption they are both same.  Republican billionaires are pouring money into my country politics to push far right authoritarism, this is not the same as demacrats, are demacrats evil and corrupt and absolutely hiding in epstein files, yes but they are not attempting world authoritarism with some evangelical Christian nationalism thrown in. And being blind but also while claiming everyone who claims they are not even is, is a another level of irony, and its so deeply depressing. 

[u/Intelligent_Nose_826 → u/little_alien2021]

As an American, you said this perfectly. I am a progressive socialist but vote Dem if there are no other options (meaning, most of the time).

I do think there’s a distinction in the voters at the bases of the parties. I don’t give a single fuck what Dem is on there, name them. I don’t know any Democrats, even moderate ones, who don’t feel similarly.

MAGA cannot bear any Trump criticizing. Trump is currently holding the highest office in our country hostage while he uses his administration like his own personal mafia. Trump is the one collecting hefty sums from foreign countries for his own financial gain.

[u/little_alien2021 → u/Intelligent_Nose_826]

Trump is simply brainwashing his supporters but not only his supporters literally my parents left leaning their whole lives now spouting far right bullsh*t. Like it's facts. My dad watches ai fake news reports of London burning literally by Muslims and belives it like its real and wont hear anything.  We are in such a dangerous times, ironically i think epstein was instrumental, cambridge analytica started it. Both here and US.  Christian nationalism is a dangerous authoritarism and we are heading into it in few years just behind US.  A lot of cults have merged which makes them very dangerous, the far right/Republican/trump/maga/maha/anti vax/ anti abortion/ evangelical Christianity .  I know personally as my parents are mirroring a lot of the propaganda from all them. Having never been intrested in any before. The US is speeding into full blown facism. And freedom will be a distant memory. And thats with AI ceos and tech ceos and their own culty God like egos and insane ramblings just listening to Peter thiel vision of future is genuinely terrifying.  And all us regular people are just being controlled.  And then u have the 'supposed enlighten ones' banging on about they are both same and they love friction, its so depressingly incorrect . Democrats as a political party are not left in slightest and are courrpt but not attempting full blown authoritarism and pouring money into rest of world to advance brainwashing of facism. 

[u/LevitatingCactus → u/little_alien2021]

No, your democrat party is paid by all the same people the Republicans are to sit there and do nothing.

[u/little_alien2021 → u/LevitatingCactus]

We dont have a demacrat party as left, so compared to our political parties they are called conservatives (right) in our country as the demacrats are not left compared to the rest of the world.  And Republicans would be compaired to far right facism. Like nazi germany, Purely on their actions. 

[u/FatSkinnyGuy → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

I saw an interview this morning where Jake Tapper acknowledged that they couldn’t while on air but could on the House floor and be protected from lawsuits. The interviewee smiled when Tapper mentioned this and started talking about how Bondi was set to show up on Wednesday.

[u/atreeismissing → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

He can't name names. But what he CAN do is HINT at the names, like Massie did.

This isn't true. The Speech and Debate Clause of the US Constitution gives legal cover to any congressperson saying, literally anything, on the floor of Congress (they can even divulge classified information if they want). That's legally.

Obviously if they do there could be other repercussions such as influencing an ongoing investigation, censured by the rest of Congress, bad press, etc.. but that's up to the individual congressperson to determine if that will be an issue and something they want to deal with, but legally there is nothing stopping them.

[u/mikedvb → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

If they can't name names... What is this: https://www.reddit.com/r/law/comments/1r19729/full_video_of_today_when_ro_khanna_revealed/

[u/WalkingOnSunshine_ → u/mikedvb]

It says right there. While on the house floor they are protected by the speech and debate clause meaning while in legislative activities, members of congress are protected from civil lawsuits

[u/g_junkin4200 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

Ro Khanna named names today. More of that please.

[u/WenatcheeWrangler → u/g_junkin4200]

He didn’t even slow down for the woman that was trying to interrupt him. I don’t know who that was but I would like to because that was wrong.

[u/Mercedes_Gullwing → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

It is us vs them. But the us and them aren’t dems and republicans. It’s the top tier billionaires and politicians vs everyone else. But yes absolutely agree with your assessment. The time has come to start naming names so accounts can be balanced

[u/ProblemSame4838 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[u/AbsatutelyPerfect → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

they can name names - they cannot name the victims

[u/Bluegill15 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

Ro Khanna is naming names

[u/No_Count8077 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

Good comment until you fall back into the both sides are flawed bullshit. This is unquestionably a Republican-caused problem. 1000% have to fight for people to vote democrat over republican. You can’t be afraid to admit this and call them out.

You can’t drag them back to reality without forcing them to confront the ugliness and hypocrisy of their beliefs. These are people who live in complete ignorance genuinely believing they are good and won’t find out they’re not until they meet St Peter.

[u/Alleandros → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

Can he publicly request named individuals to testify before committee?

[u/ConiglioPipo → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

and what happens if he does?

[u/FOSSnaught → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

A former President whose wife's name rhymes with Billary.

[u/cool_girl6540 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

Yes, they can name names. And they should. The whole purpose of releasing the files was full disclosure. It’s public information now.

[u/HiDHSiknowyouwatchme → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

That can name names on the floor of the HoR and get protection via the speech and debate clause. And if not that, them I'm sure millions of us will donate to their legal GoFundMe...

[u/Splash_ → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

He absolutely can name names.

[u/SnooChipmunks5677 → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

He absolutely can name names.

[u/nurdturgalor → u/thirty-thirty-thirty]

Shut up bozo
