King Charles Addresses Congress Amid Criticism Over Epstein Case Omission
King Charles III delivered a speech to a joint session of Congress during his state visit to the United States, emphasizing the strong historical ties between the UK and the US. However, the speech drew criticism from Democratic Representative Ro Khanna for not addressing the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes. Khanna expressed disappointment, noting that the British ambassador had suggested the issue would be mentioned. The omission was seen as a missed opportunity for the King to acknowledge the ongoing investigations involving his brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who has denied any wrongdoing related to Epstein. The King's speech did include a general statement about supporting victims of societal ills, but it was not specific to the Epstein case.
