The Trump administration’s promises to release extensive and significant new information related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein appear to be petering out – depriving conspiracy-minded MAGA supporters of the smoking guns they have long sought as they’ve publicly tried to tie influential figures to Epstein’s crimes.

A small but influential cohort of the president’s far-right political coalition spared him their ire but turned with a vengeance on the attorney general and the top officials at the F.B.I.

The Justice Department acknowledged Monday that Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list,” and no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public.
