White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is holding a press briefing Thursday afternoon, as the Trump administration faces pushback from its supporters over its handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
President Donald Trump has increasingly been distancing himself from the debacle, calling Epstein’s client list a “hoax” created by Democrats. He even suggested that any conservatives who are outraged over the Epstein case are no longer his supporters.

Despite his dismissive answers, Trump asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to release any information in the Epstein files she deems credible.
The press briefing is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. Thursday.
