Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna will call out Vice President JD Vance over his silence on the botched handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case when he heads to the vice president’s home state. The California lawmaker will appear at the Democratic Mayors Association summit in Cleveland on Friday as the House starts its six-week recess after GOP leaders scrambled to leave Washington amid pressure to release the files.

A Democratic lawmaker is ready to skewer JD Vance in his home state over the handling of the files on Jeffrey Epstein, using his own words against him.

Epstein died in his Manhattan jail cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges. His ties to prominent figures, including President Donald Trump, former President Bill Clinton and Bill Gates, have spawned rumors of a “client list” and alleged blackmail material.
