Vice President JD Vance Defends Trump, Blames Democrats Epstein Files

Vice President JD Vance has defended the Trump administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files by accusing Democrats of political opportunism and inaction during their time in power. Vance emphasized that President Trump has demanded full transparency and criticized Democrats for suddenly showing interest in the Epstein case, alleging that many left-wing politicians and billionaires had connections to Epstein, including visits to Epstein's private island. Despite ongoing public pressure and recent Justice Department moves to release grand jury exhibits and transcripts with redactions, the full disclosure of documents remains incomplete. Vance's remarks, including repeating previously debunked claims related to Bill Clinton's visits to Epstein's island, have sparked renewed demands across social media to release the files. The administration is reportedly working to compile thousands of documents to achieve transparency, although skepticism persists due to the president's own complicated history with Epstein. The Justice Department has stated there is no evidence that Epstein was murdered or that he maintained a client list, countering some conspiracy theories around the case.
