Massie Reveals Why Epstein Co-Conspirators Enjoy ‘Diplomatic Immunity’ in America

Rep. Thomas Massie bluntly questioned why powerful figures tied to Jeffrey Epstein appear to enjoy “diplomatic immunity” in the United States while warning that comfortable lies continue to shield accountability on everything from Jan. 6 to the sprawling federal deficit.

In a wide-ranging interview recorded with The Gateway Pundit days before his election, the Kentucky Republican pulled back the curtain on the forces he says have blocked real transparency and prosecutions, even as voters in his deep-red district head to the polls Tuesday in what has become one of the most expensive and bitter Republican primaries in history.

“It’s almost like you have diplomatic immunity if you’re an Epstein co-conspirator in this country, but step into Great Britain, step into Norway, step into France, and you’ll get arrested, indicted, or investigated in America,” Massie said.

Massie pointed to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick as a particular red flag.

“We saw Howard Lutnick went to Epstein Island— that guy behind Trump on the airplane when you see him, the guy whispering in his ear behind the Oval Office—was going to Epstein Island and lying to us about having never done anything with Jeffrey Epstein since he visited long ago. That should be a major red flag,” he said.

Adult Son of Israeli Diplomat Accused of Deliberately Running Over Florida Police Officer — Lawyer Claims He Has ‘Diplomatic Immunity’

The adult son of an Israeli diplomat has been accused of purposefully running over a Sunny Isles Beach, Florida, police officer on his motorcycle — and his lawyer claims that he is protected under diplomatic immunity.

Avraham Gil, 19, hit a police lieutenant who was conducting a traffic stop on Saturday afternoon.

Avraham is the son of Eli Gil, a diplomat at the Israeli consulate in Miami.

Local 10 News reports:

An arrest report states that as the officer approached the vehicle he pulled over, Gil came up on his motorcycle, weaving in between vehicles. The officer motioned at Gil and yelled at him to stop, police said, but instead he kept riding towards the lieutenant and “intentionally ran him over.”

The officer, who suffered an “incapacitating” injury to his left leg, grabbed Gil and brought him to the ground to stop him, the report states. Police arrested Gil on a first-degree felony charge of aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer and resisting an officer with violence.

Gil is crying and red-eyed in his mug shot and has been charged with two felonies.

UN diplomat dodges NYC rape rap thanks to diplomatic immunity

A United Nations diplomat was accused of raping one of his neighbors in Upper Manhattan over the weekend — but NYPD cops released him because he has diplomatic immunity, authorities said Monday.

Charles Dickens Imene Oliha, 46 — a career diplomat for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in South Sudan — was arrested in Sunday’s alleged sex assault on a woman inside her apartment around noon, according to a police report obtained by The Post.

Oliha was taken into custody on suspicion of rape and brought in for questioning, cops said.

But once he informed detectives from the NYPD’s Special Victims Unit that he was a diplomat, investigators confirmed he had immunity and swiftly released him without formally charging him, police said.
