Democratic political strategist James Carville weighed in on the pressure from President Trump’s MAGA base for the Justice Department (DOJ) to release more files related to disgraced

Justice Department officials interviewed Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein who is serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking, in Tallahassee, Fla., on Thursday. Senators used a similar approach in the past to overcome a stalemate on judicial nominations.

White House aides have made it clear that no one in the administration is allowed to talk about Epstein without high-level vetting as Trump attempts to change the subject.

MAGA platforms walk a tightrope between a loyal base demanding answers and Donald Trump’s push to turn the page.

President Donald Trump received sharp criticism on Tuesday after CNN published a batch of what anchor Erin Burnett called "never-before-seen" photos. The photos show disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and Trump hanging out at some pivotal moments in the two men's lives.

Elon Musk, who broke with Trump over his deficit busting massive spending bill, continues to boost Epstein files criticism to his over 222 million followers. Musk has previously tweeted that Trump won't release the files because he is in them.

The two billionaires' feud escalated recently with Musk alleging Trump's connection to Epstein and Trump criticizing Musk's call for a third political party.

The White House announced late Wednesday that President Trump would visit the Federal Reserve, increasing the administration’s pressure on the central bank after attacks over its management of the economy and renovations underway at its headquarters in Washington.

The Trump administration has been embroiled in a firestorm of backlash related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation this month.
