Here’s what to know about the disturbing facts and unsubstantiated suspicions that make Jeffrey Epstein, a registered sex offender, a politically potent obsession.

As MAGA world continues to obsess over the Jeffrey Epstein files, President Donald Trump, who appears to want no part, directed his ire at an unexpected target: his own base.

For years, President Donald Trump and his Republican allies benefited from conspiracy theories that fueled the conservative MAGA movement and targeted his political enemies.

The debate over a federal investigation into the late, disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein continues to stir. But why? A journalist and conspiracy theory expert joined Scripps News to explain.
