In an apparent reversal from what President Trump said earlier today about the (in his words) “Jeffrey Epstein hoax,” he’s now allegedly in support of appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the Epstein case. Today, John Solomon gave Steve Bannon a snapshot of his recent interview with President Trump. According to Solomon, President Trump is totally on-board with the idea of appointing a special counsel to take over the investigation. Watch what Solomon had to say about it here: BREAKING: John Solomon previews his interview with President Trump, says Trump told him that he supports a deepstate special prosecutor, which will include an investiagtion into Epstein: BANNON: “You did inform him that they’re thinking about appointing a special counsel on… pic.twitter.com/DJhiNIZGgW — Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) July 16, 2025 BREAKING: John Solomon previews his interview with President Trump, says Trump told him that he supports a deepstate special prosecutor, which will include an investiagtion into Epstein: BANNON: “You did inform him that they’re thinking about appointing a special counsel on this to take over this entire, this entire investigation?” SOLOMON: “Yeah, and he said, ‘I think it’s a good approach. Let’s just do it. Let’s get, let’s get the trust of the American people, let’s get accountability and then let’s focus on the things that matter.’ BANNON: “So he’s on board with the situation of getting a special prosecutor and having the Epstein situation put into that so that can be formally looked at.” SOLOMON: He immediately volunteers it, and then I follow up on it, but he immediately brings up Epstein, like ‘just throw that into it, let’s get it all answered. I got nothing to hide. I want truth and I want prosecutions and I just want the justice system to take care of what needs to be taken care of.’ It was really a remarkable moment.” That all sounds great… However, when asked about it by a reporter today, President Trump said he has “nothing to do with it.” Watch here: Trump on if he would be willing to appoint a special prosecutor to look into the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein: I have nothing to do with it pic.twitter.com/nX3BjQVypH — Acyn (@Acyn) July 16, 2025 This apparent back-and-forth is leaving a lot of folks on social media confused: I don’t know how to reconcile this with the Truth Social post from this morning. This morning it basically sounded like…”If you still have questions about Epstein, then I no longer want your support..” (paraphrase). I pray that I’m simply misinterpreting it. — ® (@proxcee) July 16, 2025 He’s pretty close to saying Epstein never existed. — Arbiter of Cool (@ArbiterofCool) July 16, 2025 Now his answer is, “I’ve got nothing to do with it.” So, which is it, and which do you believe? — Hell Hath No Fury (@HHNFAuth) July 16, 2025 My take? I think that it’s likely in that last clip, President Trump just meant that it would be up to AG Pam Bondi to appoint a special prosecutor. He doesn’t have “anything to do with it” because he won’t be personally appointing anybody, but he doesn’t shun the idea altogether. Now, that raises another concern, though: how do we know we will get somebody good to investigate this and not just cover it all up again? This person makes a great point: I have no faith in a special prosecutor, I’ve seen what the last 3 did, they covered for those that should have been punished. — Suhr Majesty (@ULTRA_MAJESTY) July 16, 2025 That’s my biggest concern here. What are your thoughts?
