[Los Angeles Mayor Calls for Resignation of Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee Chairman Involved in Epstein Case] On the 16th local time, Los Angeles Mayor Bass stated that, given the revelation that Wasserman, chairman of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee, had connections with the infamous late American tycoon Jeffrey Epstein and his ex-girlfriend Maxwell, Wasserman should resign from his position as chairman of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee. According to documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice regarding the Epstein case, Wasserman exchanged emails with Epstein's ex-girlfriend Maxwell more than 20 years ago, containing provocative language. Furthermore, Wasserman admitted that in 2002, at the invitation of the Clinton Foundation, he traveled on Epstein's private plane while participating in "humanitarian activities" in Africa.
