The Trump-Epstein firestorm isn’t going away because this time the conspiracy crowd isn’t mad at Democrats — they’re mad at President Donald Trump.

At the center of it: sealed documents, a dodgy Department of Justice press conference, and former Epstein prosecutor-turned-Trump defender Pam Bondi.

MAGA influencers, House Republicans — even Speaker Mike Johnson — are demanding transparency after years of Trump world stoking Epstein theories to rile their base.

“He’s dead for a long time. He was never a big factor in terms of life. I don’t understand what the interest or what the fascination is,” Trump said.

Now that records were quietly released and the DOJ claims there’s no Epstein client list, it’s triggering backlash from Trump’s own side.

Speaker Mike Johnson said, “We should put everything out there and let the people decide it.”

And on Tuesday, Trump himself said Bondi should decide what’s credible enough to release: “Whatever she thinks is credible, she should release.”

But in a DOJ press conference, Bondi said, “I’m not gonna talk about Epstein.”
