Podcast host Joe Rogan says his understanding of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal has undergone a dramatic shift after reviewing newly released unredacted files, describing the material as deeply disturbing and warning that the revelations point to what he called outright “demonic” evil.
During a recent episode, Rogan said:
“My position on this completely shifted… This is clearly demonic.”
He also referenced a troubling email involving a young girl invoking Jesus in prayer during her ordeal, saying the content underscored the severity of the abuses described in the documents.

Rogan’s guest, Dr. Robert W. Malone, echoed the sentiment, arguing that ordinary secular language is insufficient to describe what the files reveal.
“Growing up in the Central Coast of California, let’s say I veered [from Christianity],” Malone said.
“But the experiences that we’ve encountered over the last half a dozen years, it’s hard to come up with a language to express what we’re observing in the world other than the language of theology.”

Lawmakers Point to Code Words and Torture References
Rogan’s comments arrive as members of Congress continue reviewing Epstein-related materials released under federal transparency requirements, with some lawmakers highlighting disturbing themes within the documents.
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) said the files suggest activity beyond the already documented trafficking of minors:
“This seems that it wasn’t only the trafficking of young girls, as the narrative suggests, but there are code words that suggest Jeffrey Epstein and his associates could maybe even be engaging in some consumption.
“Is that human consumption?
“Are there code words?”
She added:
“There’s a lot of talk of ‘beef jerky.’
“There’s a restaurant called The Cannibal, where the owner is listed in some of these documents.”
Boebert also described repeated references to torture in the communications:
“I saw more emails about torture.
“These coded conversations still have a very clear topic — that torture was big.
“It was a big driver for them.
“And these were sick people doing very, very sick things.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) said she reviewed widely circulated Epstein emails that raised additional concerns.
“I looked directly at the emails that have been widely circulated about the ‘Age 11,’ and what I called the ‘Permission to Kill’ email,” Luna said.
She continued:
“These were emails sent by women to Epstein — many of whom were victims who were allegedly groomed to later be traffickers themselves.”
Luna also highlighted a repeated term in the documents:
“‘Jerky’ — whatever that is…
“It’s a code word, and it’s weird.”
Renewed Scrutiny Over Epstein Network
The reactions from Rogan, Malone, and multiple lawmakers come amid a broader wave of scrutiny following the Justice Department’s large-scale release of Epstein-related records.
Those materials include communications, logistical details, and previously hidden references that critics say deepen unanswered questions about the scope of Epstein’s operation and the individuals connected to it.
As public examination of the files continues, the growing chorus of concern, from media figures to members of Congress, signals that the political and legal fallout surrounding Epstein is far from over.
