CNN’s Perez: The AG and Other People Around Trump ‘Have Fanned the Flames of this Conspiracy’ that There Was Some Bombshell in the Epstein Documents

EXCERPT:

PEREZ: “Well, the case became a fixation in part because the Attorney General and other people around President Trump have fanned the flames of this conspiracy that there was some bombshell hidden in these Epstein documents. And everyone has known, certainly a lot of the documents that the Justice Department has been looking at, they’ve been out in public already for years. Because, you remember, some of his co-defendants went on trial after his 2019 suicide. So, this is no surprise to anyone who’s been paying attention. But for people inside the Justice Department, who certainly encouraged this kind of belief out there, they’re now having to admit that there’s really no there there. And you see in the memo, it says the systematic review revealed no incriminating client list. There’s also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions, or that he was murdered. Again, all of these things were known. It’s just that there is a certain part of the internet, and certainly on Twitter, a lot of MAGA believers who believed that there was something here that was being hidden.”
