Massie is interesting, his whole identity as a politician seems to be challenging his own party on populist lines like this. It's one thing to use Epstein as a weapon against democrats when out of power, it's another to create headaches for the Trump admin that clearly wants everyone to forget about this now.
I feel like that tension led to the end of earlier, more Qanon-adjacent politicians like Marjorie Taylor-Greene and Matt Gaetz. Massie seems to have more staying power for now, but we'll see.
