The Trump administration is pushing back against revived questions linking President Trump to Jeffrey Epstein’s scandalous past. Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt delivered a robust defense during a Washington briefing, underscoring long-broken ties and unwavering loyalty to key officials.
‘Epstein was kicked out of Mar-a-Lago because his conduct was unacceptable,’ Leavitt said, aligning with Trump’s longstanding public account. She stressed that the President ended all contact years prior, maintaining clarity on the matter.
Emerging documents reference a possible early 2000s conversation with Palm Beach authorities. Leavitt remained noncommittal: ‘Unverified details from a potential call—we stick to the facts of the ban.’ Transparency shines through with the release of millions of Epstein documents, proving the administration’s dedication to openness.
On Maxwell’s pardon prospects, Leavitt was definitive: ‘Not under consideration, as previously stated.’
Turning to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who admitted prior Epstein links in congressional testimony, Leavitt offered full backing: ‘President Trump values his contributions immensely.’
Leavitt pivoted to triumphs, celebrating the Dow Jones hitting a historic 50,000 milestone. A federal court victory on migrant policies was another highlight, ensuring zero illegal southern border entries for nine consecutive months.
Epstein’s 2019 jailhouse death followed sex trafficking charges, with Maxwell’s conviction amplifying the saga. High-profile names in the documents fuel demands for deeper revelations, but the White House insists on factual transparency over speculation.
