Vice President JD Vance trashed the media on Monday for not asking prior presidential administrations why they had not been transparent with the Jeffrey Epstein case.

“For four years under Joe Biden’s Department of Justice, the media didn’t give a damn about the Epstein files or about the Epstein case,” Vance said, responding to a question about the matter by an Associated Press reporter. “First of all, the president has been very clear, we’re not shielding anything. The president has directed the attorney general to release all credible information and frankly, to go and find additional credible information related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. He’s been incredibly transparent about that stuff.”

Vance spoke about the issue during an address in Canton, Ohio, extolling President Donald Trump’s economic agenda, according to Fox News. Vance said Trump has been the most transparent president on the Epstein topic and slammed the mainstream media for only now applying new scrutiny to the story with the president in office.

Still, some Trump supporters and critics have accused Trump and his administration of conniving to cover up the specifics of the sex trafficking case against the sexual predator after Trump’s DOJ and the FBI said earlier this month that there were no more major details to reveal about the Epstein case.

“This systemic review revealed no incriminating ‘client list,’” read a joint memo leaked to Axios. “There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.” 

Notwithstanding, the revelation stunned many MAGA Republicans and Trump supporters, who had for years thought that Epstein was at the bottom of a child sex trafficking ring that involved blackmailing famous figures worldwide.
