Democrats target Trump, GOP over Jeffrey Epstein scandal

PHOENIX: Democrats are latching onto the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, demanding records be released and trolling Republicans on social media, news shows and in the US House as they revel ina rare fissure between President Donald Trump and his fiercely loyal base.

Conspiracy theories over Epstein’s death in prison and potential evidence in his sex trafficking case, including an alleged “client list”, have largely been a fixation for the right, one egged on by Trump himself. But Democrats sensed an opening after the justice department said last week no additional evidence will be released, and some of Trump's most influential allies refused to heed his pleas to move on.

Rep. Ro Khanna, a California Democrat and likely 2028 presidential candidate, was among those who joined in Tuesday. Khanna tried to put Vice President JD Vance — who has previously called for the Epstein files to be released — in the hot seat.
