Fox News host Jessica Tarlov pulled no punches on Wednesday in hitting back at President Donald Trump for calling the ongoing focus on Jeffrey Epstein and his supposed client list a “Democrat hoax.”

A reporter asked Trump during an Oval Office presser about Republican Rep. Thomas Massie’s (R-KY) ongoing effort to release the Epstein Files, including hosting a press conference with victims just minutes before.

“He says he hasn’t been implicated in these files, but many of your friends and donors may be, and he says that’s why the Justice Department is redacting them and slow-walking the release. Is the Justice Department protecting any friends or donors?” asked the reporter about Massie’s accusations.

“So, this is a Democrat hoax that never ends! You know, it reminds me a little of the Kennedy situation. We gave him everything, over and over again, more and more, and nobody’s ever satisfied,” Trump fumed in response, adding:

And from what I understand—I could check, but from what I understand—thousands of pages of documents have been given. But it’s really a Democrat hoax because they’re trying to get people to talk about something that’s totally irrelevant to the success that we’ve had as a nation since I’ve been president.

Tarlov shared a clip of the exchange and replied, “More than 10 survivors today, some Republicans, spoke out today. Minutes later, Trump repeats this horrible lie that even some of his supporters don’t believe.”
