Trump’s Epstein controversy shows no end in sight

Episode 30 | 11m 32s

It wasn’t that long ago when Elon Musk, who was on his way out of DOGE, posted that President Trump’s name was in the files of the government’s Jeffrey Epstein investigation. It's now a scandal that even Trump can’t manage to deny or deflect, and a report from The Wall Street Journal revealed that the president was briefed about it by Attorney General Pam Bondi in May.

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, Otsuka, Kaiser Permanente, the Yuen Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
