He called them 6 powerful men and then named the 6 men in a speech in which he claimed the government is protecting rich and powerful men from prosecution for raping underage girls.

You're really going to go with the 6 "powerful" men he specifically named are not involved with the rich and powerful men that he accused of raping underage girls a minute later?

4 of those men have 0 ties to Epstein. Most of those 4 (all?) are immigrants who have had 0 trouble with the law.

This whole thing is an obvious grift to drive up hysteria and cast aspersion on whatever bogeyman that serves their purpose. Massie didn't care until Trump started attacking him and Khanna didn't care until Trump won in November.

These two dolts thought they could play with fire and give winking nods to attack their political enemies and cast themselves as heroes.

Apparently they were too dumb to even do a little bit of due diligence (after making claims they saw so many names) and it backfired spectacularly in Khanna's face. That dude should resign in disgrace and it's too bad he has absolute immunity because he should be liable for what he did to those men.
