Summary

Nicolle Wallace covers the stark difference between how the UK’s government has responded to the latest information uncovered by the Epstein files and how the US has responded. Where high-ranking officials in the UK are resigning in protest after US ambassador Peter Mandelson was found to be in the files, the United States government has largely remained mute after prominent names in the US government were found in the files. One name that popped up often – in more than 250 documents – is Howard Lutnick, the Trump administration’s commerce secretary.
