Kun suu voi hyvin, sinä voit hyvin. Hammasmehiläisen ammattilaisilla on elämä tehtävänä. Varaa aika helposti osoitteesta hammasmehiläinen.fi. Ja seuraavaksi päivän kuupismi. Hyvä ruoka on parempaa kuin huono ruoka. Ja edullinen ruoka on halvempaa kuin kallis ruoka. We are following a number of big breaking stories tonight.
And let me just start with this, because this is a piece of very good news. A person familiar with the proceedings tells MSNOW that a federal grand jury in Washington declined to indict six Democratic members of Congress today. including Senators Mark Kelly of Arizona and Senator Alyssa Slotkin of Michigan, on charges of seditious conspiracy. Now, the Trump administration was pursuing criminal charges against those members for participating in a video. You all remember this. We played it here. We've talked to all these members as well. Basically telling service members they have a duty not to obey illegal orders. Again, they tried to indict them on charges of seditious conspiracy, and a grand jury said no.
Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara is standing by for us, and let's just say I've got a lot of questions about that and what it all means moving forward, really. Also today, Congressman Ro Khanna took to the House floor and read the names of six men, powerful men. whose dealings with Jeffrey Epstein, Khanna says, the Department of Justice had hidden, and who Khanna says are likely incriminated by their inclusion in the files. And Congressman Khanna is going to join me to discuss that in just a moment. But before we talk about who those men are and what more Congressman Khanna wants to know, and there's a lot, I want to talk about the incredible revelations. And Chris just alluded to some of them there, and probably you've all seen many of this, a bunch of this too.
But there have been a number of revelations that have been trickling out of the more than three million files the Justice Department made public late last month. And the political consequences those revelations have brought about have been, well, quite interesting in some places. I mean, this was the scene in London on Friday, as British police searched the home of the former UK ambassador to the United States, Peter Mandelson. You can see, they've got whole barrels of files there and information. Mandelson is under criminal investigation by the British police after the latest trove of Epstein files revealed that Epstein not only sent the British politician and his husband tens of thousands of British pounds over the years, but that Mandelson appeared to have leaked sensitive government information to Epstein while he was the UK's business secretary, which is basically the British equivalent of the American position of commerce secretary.
And I'm going to get to that guy in just a moment. But among those alleged leaks is one huge, huge, huge one. Because back in 2009, debt had thrown the economy of Greece into a crisis. And because Greece is in the EU and uses euros that put the value of euro itself at risk. So in May of 2010, the finance ministers of the governments of the EU agreed to try to avert the crisis from spreading with a 500 billion euro bailout. That's a big one. What the latest transfer of Epstein files appears to show is that Mandelson, who would have been a key figure, of course, in negotiating that deal as their version of the Commerce Secretary, appears to have tipped Epstein off about not just that the deal was going to happen, but exactly when the deal was going to happen.
Because the night before the deal, Epstein emailed Mandelson, sources tell me 500 billion euro bailout almost complete. Then someone whose name is redacted but appears to be Mandelson replied, should be announced tonight. He said he was just leaving 10 Downing Street, which is, of course, the British equivalent of the White House. And as Mandelson said he was leaving Downing Street, he said he would call Epstein. Now. Obviously, advanced knowledge of a major government bailout, one that would create huge winners and huge losers in the stock market, is incredibly valuable information.
