During a press briefing on Tuesday, President Donald Trump made controversial claims about the Justice Department’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Trump told reporters that the DOJ’s recent memo, stating there is no client list that ties powerful figures to Epstein’s crimes, is all part of a cover-up. He accused former President Obama, former FBI Director James Comey, and the Biden administration of fabricating the files.
This statement comes after the DOJ released documents confirming no solid evidence of a secret list of elite Epstein clients exists. Many of Trump’s supporters have expressed anger online, demanding answers and pushing conspiracy theories.
Despite the facts presented, Trump continues to stir doubt around the case, which involved the abuse of hundreds of victims.
