On Sunday, July 13, Fox & Friends Weekend anchors discussed Donald Trump's insistence that reporters ask questions about topics other than Jeffrey Epstein. "If there's anybody who could walk in and say, 'OK, we've resolved all of the questions and there is nothing here,' it would be President Trump and his crew," Charles Hurt told Kevin Corke. "The problem is, you can't really do it without giving some explanation. And there has to be some explanation. And I think that's why you have a lot of people still with a lot a very valid questions."

Kevin Corke noted that Donald Trump and his administration addressing Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and their findings would help put people at ease. "You can defuse this ticking time bomb if you simply get out there," Corke stressed. "You can't tell me that a thousand people were hurt and that there are no people out there that we can arrest. You can tell me that, 'Sorry, we don't have a list.' Fine, don't have a list. Tell me who the perpetrators were. Let's depose every single person who might have had a chance to get on that list and might have been out there at that island and let's talk to them."

Jeffrey Epstein had an elite circle of friends and acquaintances — including Donald Trump — but the Department of Justice now claims there is no evidence of there being a "client list," despite previously promising to be transparent about their findings. "Let's find out what happened," Kevin Corke said. "You're telling me there are videos out there in New Mexico and on the island and in New York and nobody saw anything? I don't buy it. And that's why they need to get out there and face the fire."

Howard Kurtz pointed out that loyal MAGA supporters are disappointed by Donald Trump's "refusal to release anything from Jeffrey Epstein." Said guest Sarah Bedford, "I think it's obvious that this is a huge PR disaster for the Trump administration. … There's no way for them to spin their way out of this."

On Truth Social, Donald Trump praised Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice's work, despite his fan base's disappointment surrounding their approach to Jeffrey Epstein. "What's going on with my 'boys' and, in some cases, 'gals?' They're all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We're on one Team, MAGA, and I don't like what's happening. We have a PERFECT Administration, THE TALK OF THE WORLD, and 'selfish people' are trying to hurt it, all over a guy who never dies, Jeffrey Epstein. For years, it's Epstein, over and over again," he wrote.

While meeting with reporters alongside Pam Bondi, Donald Trump seemed annoyed by the questions about Jeffrey Epstein. "Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? This guy's been talked about for years," Trump said before Bondi could answer a question about Epstein. "Are people still talking about this guy? This creep? That is unbelievable. … I can't believe you're asking a question on Epstein at a time like this, when we're having some of the greatest success, and also tragedy with
what happened in Texas. It just seems like a desecration."
