The White House engaged in an unsuccessful pressure campaign to try and stop the Wall Street Journal from releasing a bombshell story about President Donald Trump sending a birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein this past week, according to a report.

Intense clashing over the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files has influenced betting markets about who could leave the Trump administration in 2025.

President Donald Trump continues to face backlash from his MAGA supporters over his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, calling on Attorney General Pam Bondi "to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval" related to the case.

The persisting furor over files related to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has forced President Donald Trump into an unfamiliar role: trying to shut a conspiracy theory down.

President Donald Trump will not appoint a special counsel to review the Jeffrey Epstein case, the White House said Thursday, shooting down a move that several of his allies have advocated.

Trump has been attacking his own supporters for continuing to press for release of files from the prosecution of the notorious wealthy pedophile who was found hanged in his NYC jail cell

"The president would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said July 17.

The Justice Department this week fired Maurene Comey, a federal prosecutor in New York who was involved in cases against Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Republican Sen. Ron Johnson has "chain of custody" concerns regarding the Epstein files. The closer one looks at this, the less sense it makes.
