The White House repels as requests increase for the version of Epstein files

The White House repels criticisms of management by the administration of files relating to Jeffrey Epstein while figures on both sides of the aisle require their release.

“The fact that the Democrats have now seized this as if they wanted transparency with regard to Jeffrey Epstein, who is a suggestion of Asinine to any Democrat. The Democrats had control of this building, the White House, for four years, and they did not make any danger when he came to transparency with regard to Jeffrey Epstein and his press crimes” White.

Leavitt then tried to move the accent, saying that President Donald Trump cared more of other questions, such as the law on genius and the border. This echoes a feeling expressed by Trump, who said that the Ministry of Justice had “bigger problems” than the Epstein affair.

In addition, Leavitt told journalists that Trump did not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case, saying that “the idea was from a person in the media to the president”.
A recent joint service note from the Ministry of Justice-FBI obtained by Axios have shown that the ministry and the office have concluded that they had no evidence to blackmail Epstein, to keep a list of customers or to be killed.

Republicans have become frustrated by what they consider to be a lack of transparency from the Trump administration. The president was unleashed in the midst of criticism, saying that it is a “hoax” and that those who care about the release of the files were “duples” by the Democrats.

Bondi should publish Epstein’s “credible” files, says Trump

Trump said on Wednesday that the prosecutor General Pam Bondi would release “all that is credible” linked to the Epstein affair.

“He died. He left,” said Trump about Epstein. “And, everything is, they are the Republicans, some Republicans were duped by the Democrats, and they follow a democratic game book and not different from Russia, Russia, Russia and all the other hoax.”

Intestine struggles are not limited to republican legislators. A source recently told Fox News Digital that the deputy director of the FBI, Dan Bongino, was considering resigning on the processing of files. However, he made no announcement on the start.
