Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene told "CBS Mornings" that President Trump's opposition to releasing files from the federal investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is a "huge miscalculation.
President Donald Trump has ordered Pam Bondi to investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s links to Bill Clinton and other Democratic enemies as he struggles to contain the fallout over the convicted sex offender. But there is one prominent name he has missed off his list of DOJ targets—himself.
The emails released this week have raised questions on the president's account of his friendship with the late sex offender.
Emails released by the House Oversight Committee reveal how Epstein maintained connections with influential figures despite his 2008 guilty plea to soliciting prostitution from an underage girl.
The newly released emails from House Oversight Committee show an intermittent correspondence between linguist Chomsky and Epstein from 2015 to 2017. Much of their communication focused on politics, linguistics and world affairs.
Epstein was also in fairly regular contact with Steve Bannon, Trump’s longtime adviser and former White House chief strategist, and referred to him in emails as a friend. In one December 2018 conversation, Epstein weighed in on President Trump's cabinet choices.
The documents, spanning at least a decade, show Epstein’s interactions with business executives, reporters, academics, and political players.
Maxwell’s lawyer rejects claims raised by newly released Epstein emails, insisting the documents contain “nothing damning.”
MAGA world has tolerance for much, and they will believe Trump. On 2026 midterms: No Republican should be sleeping well at night.
