After the Department of Justice and FBI, President Trump and his administration are under pressure in Epstein case. A memorandum released Earlier this month it was concluded that Epstein did not have a “client list” and confirmed that he died of suicide in 2019, shortly after he was included in allegations of federal sex trafficing.
The memorandum also concluded that there was no “reliable evidence” that the infamous financer blackmailed the prominent people. The Department of Justice and the FBI said that they would not release any further information about Epstein’s case.
But the findings of the Trump administration ranked some of his colleagues, who doubted the claim of the Department of Justice that nothing was left.
Some top officials of the administration, including vice -president JD Vance and FBI Director Kash Patel, had suggested to Mr. Trump before returning to the White House that Democrats were hiding information about Epstein and the alleged list of customers.

The judges gave the defendants – in the case of Epstein, their representatives – and the victims to exclude their positions on proposed disclosure by 5 August.

The Wall Street Journal stated last week that Mr. Trump signed the “Bawdi” letter to Epstein for his 50th birthday, stating, “There could be another amazing mystery every day.” CBS News has not seen or verified the letter independently. The President has denied that he wrote a letter, “fake,” and said Journal sued And its owner for defamation. He is demanding at least $ 20 billion dollars.
The journal said on Wednesday that when the officials of the Department of Justice reviewed the documents related to Epstein earlier this year, he learned that Mr. Trump’s name appeared several times. Bandy and his deputy told the President at a meeting of the White House in May that he was named in the so -called Epstein files, as was other public figures according to the journal.
Mr. Trump was mentioned that this does not mean that he has done any wrong thing.
White House Communications Director Steven Cheoung said in response to the magazine’s report that “the fact is that the President excluded him from his club to crawl. It is nothing more than the continuity of fake news fake news fabricated by Democrats and Liberal Media, such as Obama Riagate scam, which was correct about President Trump.”
