Former Republican strategist Rick Wilson issued a blistering warning to President Donald Trump‘s closest allies, including “the criminals at the Department of Justice,” amid mounting allegations over the president’s relationship with late financier and convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The co-founder of the anti-Trump organization The Lincoln Project called out Attorney General Pam Bondi, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and other members of Trump’s inner circle for trying to avoid the inevitable in his Substack post Thursday.
“They released three million pages… but are hiding a similar amount,” Wilson wrote. “They’re openly, brazenly, and corruptly flouting the law for the singular reason of protecting Donald Trump from what his base has always feared most: that Donald Trump will be revealed to be a pedophile and a rapist.”
“The latter is already a matter of record. The former has lurked at the edges of their consciousness since Epstein’s crimes became more than just dark lore,” Wilson added.
Wilson argued that DOJ leaders should spend the rest of their lives in jail; however, Trump would likely make this difficult with his “pre-emptive pardon.”
“The victims of Jeffrey Epstein have been treated with a level of institutional contempt that should make every American sick,” Wilson wrote. “They were promised justice; they have been ignored, ridiculed, and dismissed. The DOJ is now the primary shield for the predators it was built to hunt.”
“And why is Todd Blanche there? It’s not for his legal brilliance,” Wilson added. “This is the man who worked tirelessly to move Ghislaine Maxwell to a ‘Club Fed’ style facility, prioritizing the comfort of a sex trafficker over the justice for her victims. He is there because he maintains a private, privileged, back-channel communication line to the President, specifically to manage the Epstein Problem. He isn’t the Deputy Attorney General for the American people; he’s the janitor assigned to mop up the blood and DNA from Jeffrey’s island, ranch, and townhouse.”
