According to the letter to Deutsche Bank, following his conviction, Deutsche became Epstein's primary financial institution in 2013 and processed transactions to known victims for six years, while failing to adequately report suspicious activities to federal authorities. The bank said it "regrets our historical connection with Jeffrey Epstein," adding it has "cooperated with regulatory and law enforcement agencies."

Republicans are blocking crucial Epstein investigations needed to uncover how banks facilitated his sex trafficking ring. If their previous roadblocks weren't bad enough, Speaker Johnson has now gone as far as to prevent the 218th signature needed to release the files. Banks like JPMorgan, which ignored red flags for 15 years and enabled crimes against over 1,000 victims, deserve to be investigated.

Democratic narrative

Democrats are exploiting the Epstein investigation as a political weapon during a government shutdown that they caused. House Republicans are already working aggressively on the Epstein files, but they're doing so through the required oversight channels. This is nothing but a publicity stunt to distract from the Democrats' refusal to reopen the government.

Republican narrative

While Democrats and Republicans dodge true transparency on Epstein, hiding FBI files naming 20+ men in his trafficking ring, the cover-up unravels. From liberals to conservatives like Massie, who exposed Patel's lies, voters and leaders must unite across party lines to demand accountability. This isn't politics as usual — it's a fight to end the criminal cover-up of a child sex trafficking ring.
