Marjorie Taylor Greene warned the MAGA base that their response to the release of the Epstein files could damage the Republican Party in the upcoming midterms, according to a report from Time. The former Congresswoman, once a staunch ally of Donald Trump, expressed concern that mocking the victims of Jeffrey Epstein could alienate female voters.
Greene, who experienced a public fallout with Trump last year, stated, "All of you MAGA influencers and the rest mocking the seriousness of women who were trafficked and raped as teenagers and young women look like cult fools. Good luck trying to get women to vote for Republicans in the midterms, you insensitive clowns." She did not specify any individuals she was referring to within the MAGA base, nor did she provide an example of the alleged mocking, according to Time.
The Epstein files saga appeared to be solidifying as a lasting issue, as indicated by Joe Rogan's commentary, according to Vox. Anti-system voters, including young Republicans, were reportedly enraged by the revelations.
Newly released documents, as reported by the NY Times, revealed that Stephen Bannon, a prominent figure in the MAGA movement, extensively advised Epstein on managing allegations of sexual abuse. Bannon's communications with Epstein, detailed in thousands of pages of documents, showed a close relationship where Bannon helped Epstein navigate the unfolding scandal, despite Bannon's claim that their interactions were solely for documentary filmmaking purposes.
This news comes amidst a broader news cycle that included the anniversary of Alexei Navalny's death, severe flooding in France, and ongoing nuclear talks in Geneva, according to Euronews. Other significant developments included a speech by Marco Rubio and the eruption of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano.
