Any hope that Donald Trump might have had that a Wednesday Truth Social post calling the Jeffrey Epstein debacle a "hoax" would satisfy his MAGA base was quickly dashed within minutes.

The president went off on a rant where he blamed Democrats for being behind what he wants to be referred to as a "scam" and the "Jeffrey Epstein Hoax."

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) called for information on the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein to be released Wednesday, while also claiming past comments of his related to the case had been “misquoted and misrepresented."

“I have been misquoted and misrepresented on all of that, go watch the interview I did with Benny Johnson, I'm pretty clear,” Johnson told reporters Wednesday.

President Donald Trump's nomination of Emile Bove, who previously served as his defense attorney, for appeals court judge prompted 900 Justice Department lawyers to speak out against it.

In a letter organized by The Justice Collection, those who signed shared a "grave concern over the senseless attacks on the dedicated career employees who are the backbone of the Department."

President Donald Trump's conspiracy-minded first national security adviser begged him to improve his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal that's dogging his administration.

The Department of Justice infuriated MAGA adherents by abruptly announcing that Epstein had not kept a "client list" and was not murdered in prison despite the attorney general teasing major new developments in the case. The president has called on his supporters to stop asking questions about the matter, but retired U.S. Army General Mike Flynn implored him to reconsider.

President Donald Trump will likely back down in his war against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, a CNN panel suggested on Wednesday, following weeks of the president suggesting he may end up firing the Fed chair over his refusal to lower interest rates.

“It appears for now he'll keep his sort-of punching bag in place, and then he'll have a bag to punch as he complains about interest rates and the economy,” CNN’s Brianna Keilar said Wednesday.

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones expressed dissatisfaction with President Donald Trump after he ordered MAGA fans to stop talking about Jeffrey Epstein.

"So now Trump has slammed 'past supporters' over fixation on Epstein," Jones explained on his Wednesday program. "And I am just like, whoa, okay. That's not very Trumpian. I mean, he doesn't flip-flop hardly ever or change policies in decades."

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said that Democrats have been asking for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files for years — and that President Donald Trump should want to clear his own name.

Swalwell complained that Republicans pretend that they want to see the files, but in a vote on Tuesday they blocked a measure that would have ordered the Justice Department to release the information, which many believe will link powerful people with the pedophile.

In an interview published Wednesday with the New York Post, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) revealed that Elon Musk changed his phone number following the Tesla CEO’s messy fallout with President Donald Trump.

“I’ve reached out to Elon multiple times (since the blowup), I wanted he and the president to mend it up, and frankly, I think the president was of that mind as well, but there’s some tension there,” Johnson said.

One of the nation’s most prominent civil rights attorneys is denouncing Fox News co-host Greg Gutfeld’s attempt to normalize the word “Nazi,” diminish its horrific meaning, and strip it of the weight it carries. And she’s asking why so few seem outraged by his remarks.

“This is why the criticism doesn’t matter to us when you call us Nazis. ‘Nazi this,’ and ‘Nazi that,’ Gutfeld declared on Tuesday (video below) during the cable network’s show, “The Five,” in a segment where the chyron read: “Dems Smear ICE With Nazi Comparisons.”

President Donald Trump faced backlash after it appeared he had forgotten that he had appointed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

While appearing in the Oval Office on Wednesday, Trump was asked if he intended to fire Powell.
