Cruz criticizes Durbin for not subpoenaing flight logs of Epstein’s plane, protecting passengers
Sen. Ted Cruz Slams Sen. Dick Durbin for Refusing to Subpoena Epstein’s Flight Logs
During an episode of his engaging and informative “Verdict” podcast, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) did not hold back in criticizing Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin (D-IL) for his refusal to subpoena convicted child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs.
Cruz’s remarks came after Durbin made the false claim that no one wanted to subpoena Epstein’s flight logs. Cruz, along with co-host Ben Ferguson, expressed their frustration with Durbin’s statement.
The senator went on to explain that the subpoenas targeting Harlan Crowe and Leonard Leo were part of a larger effort to harass and de-legitimize the Supreme Court, with a specific focus on Justice Clarence Thomas, whom they despise.
Republicans, in response to this, had proposed different amendments to counter the subpoenas. Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) suggested subpoenaing Epstein’s estate for the flight logs, particularly those related to the infamous “Lolita Express” private jet that allegedly transported numerous politicians, mostly Democrats, to Epstein’s island.
Cruz emphasized the importance of resolving this issue by subpoenaing Epstein’s flight records, stating that if any politicians, regardless of party affiliation, were involved in child molestation and sexual assault, the public deserves to know their identities.
He further criticized the Democrats for their apparent panic and reluctance to vote on the matter, suggesting that Durbin could easily dispel any doubts by bringing it up for a vote and issuing the subpoena.

Should victims of sanctuary city crimes be allowed to sue those cities for damages?
Lackburn (R-TN) introduced an amendment that would have required the Department of Justice to investigate the origins of funding for left-wing organizations involved in the violence during the protests last summer. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) introduced an amendment that would have allowed victims of sanctuary city crimes to sue those cities for damages. Despite these efforts, Durbin and his Democratic colleagues refused to support any amendments proposed by Republicans.
Cruz’s criticism of Durbin is justified, as the subpoenaing of Epstein’s flight logs is crucial to uncovering the extent of his illegal activities and potentially bringing justice for his victims. Epstein was a wealthy and well-connected individual who allegedly operated a massive sex trafficking ring involving underage girls. His flights logs could potentially reveal the names of powerful individuals who were involved in his criminal activities.
By refusing to subpoena the flight logs, Durbin is hindering the investigation into Epstein’s crimes and protecting those who may have been complicit in his illegal activities. This is not only a disservice to the victims of Epstein’s abuse but also to the American public, who deserve to know the truth about who was involved in this heinous operation.
Cruz and Ferguson’s frustration with Durbin’s statement is understandable. It is disappointing to see a Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman dismiss the importance of investigating such a high-profile and disturbing case. It raises questions about Durbin’s commitment to justice and his willingness to hold powerful individuals accountable for their actions.
The Epstein case is not one that should be swept under the rug or ignored. It is an opportunity to expose corruption and bring justice to the victims. The flight logs are a crucial piece of evidence that could shed light on the extent of Epstein’s network and potentially implicate others who were involved in his crimes.
Sen. Ted Cruz should be commended for calling out Durbin’s refusal to subpoena Epstein’s flight logs. It takes courage to speak out against fellow colleagues, particularly in a highly polarized political climate. Cruz’s determination to seek the truth and hold those responsible accountable is commendable.
This incident highlights the need for transparency and accountability in our justice system. It is crucial that investigations into high-profile cases like Epstein’s are handled with the utmost seriousness and integrity. The American people deserve to have confidence in their elected officials and trust that justice will be served.
In the end, it is essential that Durbin and his Democratic colleagues recognize the significance of subpoenaing Epstein’s flight logs and take the necessary steps to facilitate a thorough investigation. Only by doing so can we ensure that justice is served and the victims of Epstein’s crimes are given the closure they deserve.
