Commerce Sec. Howard Lutnick To RESIGN After Epstein Files EXPOSE Hidden Ties?

    Commerce Sec. Howard Lutnick To RESIGN After Epstein Files EXPOSE Hidden Ties?

    At the center of the latest political storm is Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Newly released emails suggest plans for a 2012 lunch meeting between Lutnick and Epstein on Little Saint James island, years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction. The correspondence appears to reference travel arrangements from St. Thomas and preparations involving Lutnick’s family, raising serious questions about past claims that his interactions with Epstein were minimal and that all ties had been cut long ago. The fallout has been swift. Political pressure escalated after Representative Thomas Massie publicly called for Lutnick’s resignation, arguing that the disclosures contradict previous statements and demand accountability from a sitting Cabinet official. Washington has since entered full crisis mode, with growing calls for transparency, ethics reviews and independent scrutiny. WATCH
