White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt echoed the president's sentiment on Thursday in regard to critics of the administration's handling of files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.

Trump previously had a relationship with the late disgraced financier, who died in a jail cell in 2019 as he awaited a trial on sex trafficking charges.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Wednesday President Donald Trump will not recommend a special counsel in the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case, even as the administration maintains it has been fully “transparent” in its handling of the matter.

Trump has been attacking his own supporters for continuing to press for release of files from the prosecution of the notorious wealthy pedophile who was found hanged in his NYC jail cell

"The president would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said July 17.

House Republicans are trying to formulate a response to the Trump administration’s handling of records in the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case.

Some Republicans have called for the appointment of a special counsel, as MAGA allies have raged over the handling of the Epstein investigation.

Republican Sen. Ron Johnson has "chain of custody" concerns regarding the Epstein files. The closer one looks at this, the less sense it makes.
