‘All he can do is humiliate himself’: Trump official hammered after using offensive slur

White House Communications Director Steven Cheung was hammered Saturday morning after attacking two lawmakers over their push to release files on Jeffrey Epstein, and using an offensive slur for people with intellectual disabilities in the process.

The public feud followed the recent move by the Justice Department to un-redact the names of six individuals included in its most recent release of Epstein files, which it did after mounting pressure from Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA). After the release, the DOJ claimed that four of those six individuals had no connection to Epstein, prompting Cheung’s attack on the two lawmakers.

“Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie are some of the dumbest r------ ever to be in Congress,” Cheung wrote Friday evening in a social media post on X. “They knowingly and willfully ruined the lives of innocent people who had nothing to do with Epstein.”

And, while Massie would go on to blame the DOJ for the blunder – which he accused of having unlawfully redacted the individuals’ names in the first place – Cheung’s use of language in his attack did not go unnoticed.

“Steven missed his truly calling as a henchman in Rush Hour 3 so all he can do is humiliate himself on behalf of Donald Trump over and over,” wrote journalist Zaid Jilani, author of “The American Saga” newsletter, in a social media post on X to his nearly 150,000 followers.

Prominent progressive political figure Nina Turner took notice of Cheung’s outrage, as well as the fact that it was directed toward the two lawmakers perhaps most responsible for the recent trove of Epstein files being made public.

“New name to search in the Epstein files: Steven Cheung,” Turner wrote in a social media post on X to her more than 619,000 followers.

And Massie himself fired back at Cheung over the insult, sarcastically issuing an apology to him over the recent resignation of Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, an Emirati billionaire who stepped down as CEO of a major shipping logistics company after being exposed in the Epstein files, and in large part due to Massie and Khanna’s efforts.

“Sorry about your Sultan bro,” Massie quipped in a social media post on X.
