Trump Triggers Humiliating Truth Social Backlash by Praising Appointees After Epstein Flub

President Trump’s Truth Social followers reacted furiously to a post in which he praised his loyalists leading the FBI amid MAGA uproar over the bureau’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case.

In his post, Trump lauded FBI Director Kash Patel and his deputy Dan Bongino, writing on Monday: “They have been unleashed to do their jobs, and they are doing just that. Keep it up—MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN!” Trump did not make clear why he was making the sudden show of support for the pair—which came hours after the FBI and Department of Justice released a memo concluding that sex offender Epstein died by suicide and had not kept an incriminating “client list.”
