Vice President JD Vance said that Democrats are only concerned about Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes when they can use them against political enemies.
Vance slammed the Democrats for twisting the Epstein scandal into another hoax to attack President Donald Trump, Breitbart reported.
The Left has begun claiming that Trump won’t release the files because he’s implicated in them, even though his predecessor ignored the scandal.
Vance was responding to recent news about a “birthday card” that the New York Times and other outlets claimed the president signed for the sex trafficker.
“The Democrats don’t care about Epstein,” Vance posted to X on Monday.
“They don’t even care about his victims.
“That’s why they were silent about it for years.
“The only thing they care about is concocting another fake scandal like Russiagate to smear President Trump with lies.
“No one is falling for this BS,” the vice president wrote.

In July, the Wall Street Journal described a birthday greeting Trump purportedly sent to Epstein in 2003 that featured a signed drawing of a naked woman with a message to Epstein about a ” wonderful secret.”
Trump denied such a letter existed and sued the news outlet for defamation after the story broke.
However, copies of a note supposedly penned by Trump were released Monday by the House Oversight Committee and published in the Journal.
Now, the Left is going crazy with insinuations and accusations against Trump in another bid to smear the president with whatever they can get their hands on.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that believing this letter to be authentic is absurd, given the apparent contradictions in the reporting.
“The latest piece published by the Wall Street Journal PROVES this entire ‘Birthday Card’ story is false,” Leavitt said.
“As I have said all along, it’s very clear President Trump did not draw this picture, and he did not sign it.
“President Trump’s legal team will continue to aggressively pursue litigation,” Leavitt went on.
There has never been any dispute in the fact that Trump knew Epstein, as many of the top echelon of wealth and power had as well.
The difference is they were willing to look the other way when it was people like former President Bill Clinton, but now that they can pin something on Trump, they’re ready to pounce.
Former President Joe Biden refused to release the Epstein files, and Democrats were mostly okay with that during his time in the White House, Fox News reported.
Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who was House Speaker for a time during Biden’s presidency, remained silent when asked about her lack of curiosity until now.
Other Democrats like Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) are suddenly keyed into the Epstein saga after battling for years to keep the files hidden from the American people.
Raskin couldn’t explain his sudden interest when asked about it on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
“But, Congressman, you could have gotten that from ’21 to ’25, when Democrats controlled the DOJ,” co-host Joe Scarborough asked.
“Why? It was a crisis then.”
“It’s a crisis now,” Scarborough pressed.
“Why didn’t Democrats call for it from ’21 to ’25?”
Raskin spoke in circles, claiming “you’d have to go back and look specifically at particular prosecutorial decisions and what was taking place in terms of the other cases.
“So, I don’t know, we could try to reconstruct that record.”
Democrat Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) was also cagey when pressed about her sudden interest in the case by a reporter at CNN.
“I would have been happy to raise it then as well,” Jayapal claimed.
“Frankly, we were focused on so many different pieces.”
Now that they believe they can take down Trump with it, Democrats are suddenly apoplectic about the goings on with Epstein.
Their concern would be more credible if they hadn’t spent years trying to make the story go away, but Vance has exposed their selective concern, which is clearly only for political gain.
Meanwhile, the House Oversight Committee has just released Bill Clinton’s “birthday letter” to Epstein.
Unsurprisingly, the Democrats and their corporate media allies are silent.
