Last week, the Trump administration quietly closed its review of the Jeffrey Epstein case. No client list. No charges. No further investigation. Just a shrug from the Department of Justice—now led by Trump loyalists—claiming the case is over and there’s nothing to see.
But Americans aren’t buying it. And, for once, neither are many of Trump’s own supporters. Now, it’s up to us to expose the lies, end the cover-up and demand accountability from Congress.
EPSTEIN 101
Jeffrey Epstein was a wealthy financier and convicted sex offender with deep ties to global elites—presidents, billionaires, royals, and media moguls. Epstein and Trump had a decades-long friendship, and in 2002 Trump said this to New York Magazine: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.” Just a few years later, Epstein was convicted of procuring a person under 18 for prostitution.
In 2019, Epstein was arrested again, this time on federal sex trafficking charges—this time, conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of underage girls. There were also whispered allegations that he not only coordinated the child sex abuse, but used it to blackmail the wealthy and powerful abusers. He died under suspicious circumstances in a New York jail cell before he could be brought to trial. His associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, is now in prison, but no other high-profile figures have ever been held accountable
For years, the public has demanded the truth: Who else was involved? Who enabled it? Who’s being protected?
Trump promised during his campaign that, if elected, he would run a transparent administration and throw open the files to high-profile cases. But now that he’s back in power, his administration is trying to shut the door to accountability for good.
