MAGA-friendly TV channel Newsmax is throwing shade at Fox News for tiptoeing around the controversy surrounding President Donald Trump’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Anchor Rob Schmitt suggested that Fox News hosts are “terrified” to cover MAGA’s uproar over the Trump administration’s decision not to release any more information on the late convicted sex offender.
The FBI and DOJ said they do not plan to make future public disclosures related to their review of Epstein's case, stoking outrage among Trump's most vocal supporters.
Trump lashed out at his MAGA base on Wednesday over their meltdown to the Justice Department’s memo that concluded that Epstein had no “client list” of high-profile public figures involved in the scandal. He said in his Truth Social post that he no longer wanted the support of those who cared about the case.
