Tucker Carlson Makes Major Claim About Donald Trump and Epstein File Cover-Up
Ex-host Tucker Carlson claims President Trump personally ordered the secrecy of Jeffrey Epstein's files as legal battles intensified over the records' release.
- Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson claimed Wednesday that President Donald Trump directly ordered the cover-up of government documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, describing the private exchange during a Vanity Fair interview.
- Carlson said he urged President Trump in the summer of 2025 to release the files, warning of political consequences, but Trump dismissed the investigation as a "plot against him."
- White House spokesperson Lauren Bis pushed back, declaring President Trump "totally exonerated on anything relating to Epstein" and stating the administration has done more for victims "than anyone before."
- This public dispute follows a major falling out between the two former allies, with Trump recently dismissing Carlson on Truth Social as a "broken man" who "couldn't even finish College."
- Vice President JD Vance and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles reportedly view the Epstein files as a political liability for 2028, fearing they alienate Republican voters who feel the administration failed them.
