Brian Glenn — a pro-MAGA reporter for right-wing outlet Real America’s Voice — announced that he will take the “new media” seat at Monday’s White House press briefing. But rather than ask the type of sycophantic question that often comes from the occupant of that seat, Glenn’s followers are imploring him to ask a tough question — specifically about the DOJ denying the existence of a Jeffrey Epstein client list.

The Axios report, late Sunday, about a DOJ memo which stated that no evidence of additional perpetrators was found in the Epstein Files has been denounced by many prominent MAGA influencers. Various clips of President Donald Trump’s DOJ officials — including Attorney General Pam Bondimaking bold promises about an Epstein Files release have been circulating across social media in the wake of the DOJ’s findings.

While conservative media has largely shown it is willing to press the White House on the subject of Epstein, Glenn does not have a history of asking tough questions in the briefing room. He has repeatedly teed up press secretary Karoline Leavitt to criticize the media, or Trump’s political foes.

But on Monday, his followers made it clear that they’re looking for Glenn to ask a tough question about the DOJ trying to quietly shutter an investigation they’ve wanted answers on for years. Here’s a sampling of the replies to Glenn, after he announced he’s going to get the first question in Monday’s briefing:
