Despite days of claiming the controversy surrounding Jeffrey Epstein was a hoax, President Trump is taking the extraordinary step of calling for the release of grand jury testimony related to the deceased convicted sex offender’s case.
Trump faces MAGA backlash over Epstein as calls for transparency grow and loyalists demand the files be released.
Even as news broke this past week that Trump had instructed Attorney General Pam Bondi to release grand jury testimony from the investigations into Epstein and his mistress, those same Democrats called the move an attempt to cover up the president’s involvement, given that it constituted less than full transparency.
The president disavowed longtime backers who are furious over the administration's conclusion that the accused sex trafficker died by suicide in jail and did not possess a secret list of clients.
President Trump said the outrage among his supporters over the Epstein case was just the latest “scam” cooked up by Democrats.
