On Epstein, Massie finds himself in unusual place: The majority

When a bill passes the House by an overwhelming bipartisan vote of 427-1, one would usually assume Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) would be in the minority.

But that wasn’t the case Tuesday, when the House voted on legislation to require the Justice Department to release its records concerning the late convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. Massie was, in fact, a leading Republican behind the bill, sponsoring it when it was a nonstarter for most in his party.
