President Trump's Former #1 Aide, In Charge When Jeffrey Epstein Died, Says Trump Is In The Epstein Files

MAR-A-LAGO, FLORIDA, JUL 17 – Mick Mulvaney says Trump is named in Epstein files as public disapproval hits 63%, with demands growing for release of documents linked to a convicted sexual predator.

  • Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender, died by suicide in a New York City jail cell in August 2019 after being arrested on sex trafficking charges earlier that summer.
  • Epstein's death and connections to powerful individuals, including President Trump who had a long-ago falling out with Epstein, have fueled sustained controversy and conspiracy theories.
  • Steve Bannon recorded roughly 15 hours of interviews with Epstein for a documentary that remains unreleased, and Mark Epstein expressed doubts about the official account while urging Bannon to disclose the footage.
  • The Justice Department and FBI stated no client list of Epstein’s associates exists, while Trump called Epstein-related claims a 'hoax' but also expressed uncertainty about the suicide ruling and called for a full investigation.
  • The Epstein case has divided political factions, with many Americans believing information is being concealed, leading to calls for accountability and complications for Trump’s political support ahead of future elections.
