Epstein Scandal: Karoline Leavitt’s comments spark debate over transparency and accountability
During a White House press briefing on July 17, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended President Biden’s comments labeling the renewed focus on the Epstein files a “hoax,” accusing Democrats of hypocrisy for demanding transparency they allegedly ignored while in power. Leavitt highlighted the administration’s actions, including a DOJ-led review of the Epstein files, and criticised the media for neglecting issues like fentanyl deaths and major economic investments.
