In a post to Truth Social on Wednesday, President Donald Trump slammed Democrats for creating what he called a new “hoax,” this one being over the Jeffrey Epstein saga.<\/p>\n

In comments to the press he repeatedly made reference to the bogus Steele Dossier and suggested that the Washington establishment were falling back on a tried and false playbook.<\/p>\n

\"\"That U.S. intelligence professionals and senior elected officials would make things up to smear a sitting president seems preposterous on its face. And indeed, the nation’s legacy media would have the public believe it never happened.<\/p>\n

Only President Trump regularly reminds the world that it in fact did happen.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, CIA Director John Ratcliffe slammed then-CIA Director John Brennan<\/span><\/a> for joining FBI Director James Comey in pushing to include the bogus anti-Trump dossier by British ex-spy Christopher Steele in the intelligence community\u2019s assessment of Russiagate.<\/p>\n

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Wednesday the \u201choax\u201d status assigned by Trump stems from the fact that Democrats are now clamoring for the Epstein files to be made public.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President is referring to the fact that Democrats have now seized on this as if they ever wanted transparency when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein, which is an asinine suggestion for any Democrat to make,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Democrats had control of this building, the White House, for four years, and they didn’t do a dang thing when it come came to transparency in regards to Jeffrey Epstein and his heinous crimes,\u201d Leavitt said.<\/p>\n

Leavitt said Trump had commissioned an \u201cexhaustive review\u201d of the case files by FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi, calling the law enforcement officials \u201cgreat patriots\u201d and \u201csome of the most trusted voices in the Republican Party movement.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey spent many months going through all of the files related to Jeffrey Epstein, and they concluded what they found in that memo, which they drafted and they released. And so the President has been transparent. He has followed through on his promises to the American people, but he doesn’t like to see Democrats in the mainstream media covering this like it’s the biggest story that the American people care about,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

When The Independent asked if Trump would consider pardoning Epstein\u2019s convicted co-conspirator, Ghislane Maxwell, if she is in prison as a result of a \u201choax,\u201d Leavitt declined to respond.<\/p>\n
