Vice President JD Vance said the Trump administration mishandled the release of the Epstein files, stating the Justice Department should have “just dropped everything at the very beginning.”
The vice president, who delivered the candid remarks on Wednesday’s episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast, said the administration had “absolutely screwed up the comms of the Epstein files,” but contended that the delays were not an attempt to hide secrets.
Vance acknowledged the “bitching and moaning” from within the administration in regards to collecting hundreds of thousands of documents.
