The Trump administration is deliberately working to cover up the investigation surrounding Jeffrey Epstein. This is the claim made by American political commentator Nick Fuentes in a statement on X.
He argues that the administration, despite previous promises of transparency, is now lying about Epstein’s death and burying the story of his alleged blackmail ring. He also points to connections between Epstein and Israeli interests.
Jewish-American financier Jeffrey Epstein, previously convicted of sex crimes, was arrested in 2019 for sex trafficking of minors. His case gained global attention due to his close ties to influential figures in politics and business. Epstein died in his cell in August 2019, officially by suicide, but the circumstances have given rise to speculation that he was murdered. The investigation has since focused on his alleged blackmail operation, where he is accused of filming powerful individuals in compromising situations. Epstein was first charged in 2005 for soliciting minors for prostitution.
Despite serious charges, Epstein received an unusually lenient sentence in 2008, which according to Fuentes was due to his connections to intelligence services.
– Former Attorney General Acosta said (this goes back to 2008), Epstein is intelligence.
Allegations of cover-up
Fuentes’ central criticism is directed at the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein investigation. He claims that the administration has not only broken promises of openness but is actively working to conceal the truth.
– This is literally the opposite of what Trump supporters voted for. It’s the opposite. This is not only not disclosure, this is a cover-up.
According to Fuentes, the Department of Justice has now stated that Epstein committed suicide, that no client list exists (with politicians and business leaders who allegedly participated in the abuse, editor’s note) and that further investigations are unnecessary. He sees this as an attempt to end the discussion.
– Now they’re lying about it and covering it up. They’re actually burying it. They’re making it less accessible than before.
Fuentes also points to evidence from Epstein’s residences, where cameras and recording equipment were found, which he says supports the theory of a blackmail ring. He questions the Department of Justice’s claims that no such operation took place.
Connections to Israel and powerful actors
Fuentes highlights Epstein’s alleged connections to Israeli intelligence services, particularly Mossad. He mentions Epstein’s financial support from Jewish billionaires in the Mega Group, an organization that according to Fuentes promotes pro-Israeli interests.
– He got his money from Les Wexner and the Bronfman family from Mega Group. They’re both Israeli operators.
Fuentes also highlights that Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, is the daughter of Robert Maxwell, a British media mogul who is alleged to have been a Mossad agent.
– His girlfriend and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell was the daughter of Mossad super spy Robert Maxwell.
He argues that these connections suggest that Epstein may have operated a blackmail ring on Israel’s behalf, something he believes the Trump administration is now trying to conceal.
Timing and political motives
Fuentes notes that the Department of Justice’s statements about the Epstein case being closed coincided with a visit by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the White House on July 7, 2025. He sees this as suspicious and connects it to the administration’s pro-Israeli stance.
– His pro-Israel deputy FBI director, buried and covered up the story of the pro-Israel blackmail organizer Jeffrey Epstein the same day that Netanyahu visited the White House for the third time.
He points to key figures like Kash Patel, Dan Bongino and Pam Bondi, whom he describes as strongly pro-Israeli, and questions their role in burying the story.
– Why, oh why, would the super Zionists, Pam Bondi and Dan Bongino, Pam Bondi being from the state of Florida, which is run by Jews, why would they bury the story of the Israeli spy running a blackmail ring known as Jeffrey Epstein? he questions ironically in conclusion.
