President Donald Trump is facing major backlash from his base over his response to a reporter's question about Jeffrey Epstein.During a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, a reporter questioned Attorney General Pam Bondi about Epstein.

Previously, United States Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed to have a "client list" of Epstein's on her desk, ready for review. However, earlier this week, the Department of Justice released a memo stating there is no evidence of a client list or Epstein blackmailing powerful figures, Axios reported.

The Epstein affair had the hallmarks of a conspiracy theory. He was a rich financier with a Jewish surname and powerful acquaintances, including Bill Clinton, a former president, and Prince Andrew, a British royal.
