Part 5/9:
The Epstein Files and Political Accountability
Another contentious point discussed was the handling—or mishandling—of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Mulaney criticized the White House for not immediately releasing these documents, calling it a failure to uphold promises of transparency. The Epstein case, with its tangled web of elites and powerful figures, has long been shrouded in secrecy. The reluctance or deliberate delay in releasing pertinent files fuels suspicion that many influential individuals may be implicated in illicit or unethical activities.
