    So, he lied, as expected.

    It’s okay if you lie to Congress about this one subject, and several others. They don’t really want to know. They’re just trying to get re-elected. This is one more reason we need term limits for Congress.

      Doubt he lied about the second part at least. He probably did make sure all the ones he was with were at least 18. Considering that Trump’s admin has the Epstein files, they’d totally run him over if they had evidence otherwise, and they definitely could easily know if he lied or not on that. He knows they don’t, that’s why he testified.

        Epstein was pretty careful not to talk about actual crimes in a way that would have been recorded. There are numerous instances of him saying they need to take a conversation offline.
