President Trump's loyal base and Democrats alike are now calling for the entire Department of Justice file of Epstein material to be released, an appeal so far rejected by Trump and his aides.

President Trump has held his MAGA coalition together for a decade. But many supporters say his refusal to release information on the Jeffrey Epstein case means he’s acting more like the deep state they want to tear down.

Some Republicans have called for the appointment of a special counsel, as MAGA allies have raged over the handling of the Epstein investigation.

"The president would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said July 17.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Wednesday President Donald Trump will not recommend a special counsel in the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case, even as the administration maintains it has been fully “transparent” in its handling of the matter.
