The Justice Department decided not to release additional documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, angering many supporters of Trump. For years, Trump and his administration had promised the release of Epstein files. The memo incited backlash, with figures like Tucker Carlson criticizing the government's response. Despite initial outrage, some conservative influencers, including Charlie Kirk and Dinesh D'Souza, began advocating for supporters to move on from the Epstein issue. Trump's directive on social media also encouraged his followers to redirect their focus away from Epstein.
"The fact that the U.S. government, the one that I voted for, refused to take my question seriously and instead said, 'Case closed. Shut up, conspiracy theorist,' was too much for me," said former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, expressing frustration over the Justice Department's memo regarding Jeffrey Epstein.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk reported that at a recent event, responses indicated that the Epstein scandal mattered significantly to attendees, with 'every hand of 7,000 people' going up when asked.
Trump stated on Truth Social not to 'waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein,' directing his followers to focus on different issues instead of the Epstein controversy.
Dinesh D'Souza remarked that it's 'time to move on' from the Epstein matter, noting that 'it seems pretty clear we're not gonna get more information out of the government.'
