A timeline of the controversy over the administration's handling of the Epstein files
Thursday, 17 July 2025 () The Trump administration's handling of what are known as the Epstein files has been creating a firestorm within the president's MAGA base. NPR recaps a timeline of the controversy.
Attendees of Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit erupted in boos over the Trump administration’s handling of files related to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Meanwhile, the president over weekend publicly defended AG Pam Bondi's handling of the...
President Trump has launched a blistering attack on The Wall Street Journal, Rupert Murdoch, and NewsCorp after the paper reported he drew a Nude woman on an Epstein birthday card. Accused of signing it with “may every day be another wonderful secret,” the card was labeled “fake news” by Trump on Truth Social. He vowed to sue the Journal, Murdoch, and their affiliates, branding the story “disgusting and filthy.” Trump claims the letter and drawing never existed, and criticizes their reliance on dubious sources.
Vice President JD Vance backed him, calling the report “complete and utter bullshit” and challenging the paper to produce the alleged card. Trump’s post calls this another example of the “Fake News” media targeting him unfairly. He argues that if any real evidence existed, it would have surfaced years ago — not conveniently after his three election wins.

As public pressure mounts to unseal Epstein’s full client list and investigate his powerful connections, critics are slamming the administration for what they call a deliberate dodge.
Leavitt’s statement, delivered during a tense press briefing, has ignited new outrage across social media, with many demanding transparency and accountability.

Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days. Critics warn Vought's Christian nationalist leanings and military spending cuts may spark major backlash.
