'Lying through his teeth': Joe Scarborough trashes Trump crew's latest Epstein dodges
MS NOW's Joe Scarborough tore into what he sees as the ongoing Trump administration coverup of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case files, following a contentious congressional hearing from Wednesday in which Attorney General Pam Bondi lashed out at every lawmaker trying to ask her tough questions.
"She's making a fool of herself," said Scarborough. "She actually thinks that everybody's a five-year-old in that room. Like she's exposed, making a fool of herself."
"The question is about young girls who have been raped, not about the S&P 500," he said. "The question is about people all around Donald Trump. I could list the names, those in government, those in his family, those around him that are all over the Epstein files, all over the Epstein files. And yet the richest and most powerful among them, the people, the Epstein class who is running this government is still being protected by Pam Bondi. Her binders full of information. Yeah, nothing was in that. And now they're desperately trying to continue to keep this from the American people, who is in the Epstein class that they are trying to protect."
"You got a Commerce Secretary who's been caught lying through his teeth saying that he stopped seeing Epstein in 2005," said Scarborough. "He took his family to Rape Island. Like seven years later, he lived next door to the guy. But nothing happens. Nothing happens."
"And by the way, this is a Republican issue, this was a MAGA issue," said Scarborough. "It was, this is — this is what all of them, the FBI director, Pam Bondi, everybody was talking about the Epstein files, the Epstein files. When we're in charge, we're going to get, get, get rid of, you know, all of the hidden rapists and all of the hidden, out there who are in powerful positions. Instead, they're just — they're covering, it's a coverup... They keep covering up."
"And it's not just the Democrats on the committee saying it," he added. "Thomas Massie of Kentucky, who, by the way, Thomas Massie of Kentucky is saying the same thing now, that Kash Patel and Pam Bondi and all these other MAGA supporters were saying before the election, before they had the power to actually release the Epstein files. Now that they have that power, it looks like a coverup."
