You voted to cover up the evidence, Mike. Listen, folks, I want to repeat it again. It's important to understand. When Congress was voting on whether to release that evidence, we all knew what had happened. But you voted to cover up the evidence, even though you knew 14 -year -old girls had been raped, because Donald Trump told you to. Donald Trump, who by the way is named a thousand times in the Epstein files. Have you ever met with Jeffrey Epstein's victims? When they ask you why you voted to cover up the Epstein files, do you have an answer? What would you say to them tonight, Mike? After you voted to cover up evidence of the most notorious sex trafficking ring in American history? The vote is public record.
