Getting justice for Epstein survivors seems impossible in the United States. But in the United Kingdom, the Epstein files could bring down the British government. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing calls to resign after admitting he knew the UK's former Ambassador to the United States, Peter Mandelson, had ties to Epstein when he appointed him in 2024. To unpack how the United Kingdom is reckoning with Epstein, we spoke to Coco Khan, co-host of Crooked Media’s Pod Save the UK. And in headlines, Vice President JD Vance becomes the first sitting US Vice President – or President – to visit Armenia, immigration officials are set to testify before the House Committee on Homeland Security, and a new report from CBS News finds that less than 14 percent of people arrested by ICE in the first year of Trump’s second term had violent criminal records.

  • It's Tuesday, February 10th.

  • I'm Jane Kostin, and this is What A Day, the show that wants to celebrate DinoCon,

  • the UK's largest paleontology conference, for banning every scientist,

  • researcher, and author who exchanged emails with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

  • DinoCon is taking tougher action on Epstein's connections than the United States government.

  • Rawr!

  • On today's show, Vice President JD Vance boldly goes where no Vice President has gone before.

  • Armenia.

  • And is ICE really arresting the worst of the worst?

  • A new report from CBS News confirms what we kind of already knew.

  • But let's go back to the Epstein files.

  • Convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell was supposed to virtually testify before the House Oversight Committee on Monday,

  • but she didn't testify.

  • Instead, she invoked her Fifth Amendment right,

  • the one that lets you refuse to incriminate yourself on the stand.

  • In a written statement,

  • her lawyer said that Maxwell would only speak if she received clemency for her crimes,

  • an act of mercy that can only be granted by the president.

  • Maxwell's attorney added, quote, only she can provide the complete account.

  • Some may not like what they hear, but the truth matters,
