Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) said in a Sunday interview that it’s time to “move on” from the controversy surrounding disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.
In an interview on NewsNation's "The Hill Sunday," Chris Stirewalt asked about Trump's defense of the Justice Department's handling of the case, and the calls from parts of the president's most ardent supporters for a special counsel investigation into the case.
“Listen, I'm probably not the person to ask, because I don't speak in conspiracy theory,” Lawler told Stirewalt.
“But, at the end of the day, there's a lot bigger issues facing this country than Jeffrey Epstein. The guy is dead and buried. Let's move on,” he continued.
The interview comes after Trump reiterated his confidence in Bondi on Saturday amid fierce backlash from segments of his base over her handling of the Epstein files.
The Justice Department released a memo on Monday concluding there was no evidence Epstein kept a “client list,” nor that the convicted sex offender sought to blackmail powerful figures implicated in his crimes. The memo also found no evidence suggesting foul play involved in Epstein’s death, which had previously been ruled a suicide.
Those revelations contradict conspiracy theories pushed by several right-wing media personalities and internet influencers; many of whom fumed Monday over the memo and alleged a cover-up was taking place.
