"What the president has also said is that we've got a whole host of things that we can focus on. You can both order the Department of Justice to do full transparency. You can also ask the Department of Justice to enforce the law. You can ask the National Guard to make sure that DC's streets are safe. You don't have to do one of these things or the other."
"Now, yes, I'm certainly aware that there are folks, even some of our own supporters, who have criticized the response of the president of the Department of Justice. But I think if you look at this in full and you give this the proper amount of time, what you're going to find is that the administration has been far more open and transparent about this issue and many others than any of the other administrations."
The president ordered the Department of Justice to release credible information and pursue full transparency on Jeffrey Epstein-related matters. Todd Blanche released a nine-hour transcript of an interview with Ghislaine Maxwell. The administration presented transparency, law enforcement, and security measures as simultaneous priorities, asserting that ordering DOJ transparency and deploying the National Guard to secure DC streets are not mutually exclusive. The administration rejected the characterization of these actions as a distraction. Some supporters criticized the Department of Justice's response. The administration portrayed its approach as more open and transparent than previous administrations and noted the story intensified during the Biden administration.
