Slobfather calls Epstein controversy a 'witch hunt' as justice department seeks meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell

Donald Trump has decried the bipartisan controversy over US Attorney General Pam Bondi's remarks that there was no evidence the late financier Jeffrey Epstein kept an incriminating list of his wealthy clients

He has called the issue a "witch hunt" and says the press and American citizens should instead look into unsubstantiated allegations of corruption he is levelling at the Democrats

Trump's appearance comes as the US Department of Justice has asked to meet Ghislaine Maxwell - she was found guilty in 2022 of helping Epstein sexually abuse young girls

The president has said that only "stupid" people are still concerned with the case - previously, Trump campaigned on releasing documents related to Epstein, including the so-called "client list"

Except the witch is for real.

by the very specters it once summoned for cheap applause. The irony is almost poetic, after years of spinning conspiracies to kneecap opponents, he may be tripped up by the very web of deceit he wove and decorated with his own paranoia.
