Epstein Shmepstein, Nothing To See Here.
It’s President Donald Trump versus MAGA.
In the days since the Trump administration released a memo about Jeffrey Epstein directly at odds with conspiracy theories pushed by the president and some of his top lieutenants, Trump’s movement and most ardent supporters are in revolt.
The Justice Department and the FBI released a memo last week concluding there was no evidence that Epstein had a list of powerful men who participated in his alleged underworld of sex trafficking and pedophilia. It also said the disgraced former financier died by suicide and was not murdered in his New York jail cell.
Yet after years of big promises to the president’s base, the memo failed to produce a smoking gun, undercutting Trump and his team’s own words. And MAGA world isn’t happy, pitting the president’s closest allies against one another.

The dawn of the internet has led to so many conspiracy theories they are now far too numerous to count. The Jeffrey Epstein murder conspiracy theory is one of the most widespread and believed among many Americans of all political stripes. Now the Administration is saying there is no conspiracy theory, there is nothing at all going on here and it is time to move on. This particular conspiracy holds a special place in the conspiracy constellation and it is not going anywhere anytime toon much to Trump’s chagrin.
