'Time for a moral reckoning' as Epstein files reveal associates in Trump’s inner circle

British-American journalist Sarah Baxter on Sunday laid bare the “deafening” silence of President Donald Trump’s inner circle as several of his top aides and advisors are revealed to have associated with late convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
According to Baxter, the release of the Epstein files “has laid bare the immorality of America,” noting people who were “caught lying” about the extent of their relationships with Epstein are now forced to “duck and dive for cover.”
“Their strategy comes straight out of the PR playbook of the malevolent Donald Trump whisperer, Steve Bannon, who was asked by his pal Epstein in 2019 whether to ‘continue to ignore’ personal attacks,” Baxter wrote. “Bannon said yes. Responding, he said, 'makes it way worse.' He is now following his own cynical advice on the subject.”
Baxter noted that a former Trump foe, Hillary Clinton, has the “power to blow this conspiracy of silence apart” after the former first lady demanded a public hearing before the House Oversight Committee. Chairman James Comer (R-KY), Baxter explained, “is now scurrying for excuses to resist this demand.”
“His reluctance to call anybody in Trump’s circle to appear matches the quiescence of the Maga and QAnon conspiracy-mongers,” Baxter wrote.
“If Hillary Clinton has to give evidence, let’s hear from all of them,” the journalist added. “And yes, that includes all the Trumps.”
“It’s time for a moral reckoning,” she said.
