GOP Accused of Whitewashing Epstein: “Greatest Pedophile of the 21st Century”
MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough criticized Republicans for minimizing Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes, accusing them of attempting to protect a prominent pedophile. This comes amid pressure on the GOP to release the Epstein files, which former President Donald Trump has dismissed as a “Democratic hoax,” despite his past close relationship with Epstein. Survivors and lawmakers are demanding action and a document dump, highlighting the hypocrisy of those who previously amplified conspiracy theories about child sex trafficking but are now downplaying Epstein’s crimes. Scarborough referenced the “Pizzagate” conspiracy and how Trump has shifted his narrative to deflect blame.
