How the Epstein case is tearing apart Maga's conspiracy wing
In conspiratorial pro-Trump spaces online, arguments rage over the US president's approach to the long-running saga.
Maga influencers have found themselves on the defensive as they try to stand by their man after years of demanding Epstein transparency – a call that was endorsed by Trump during last year's presidential campaign, and vociferously pushed for years by several top administration officials including FBI director Kash Patel.
Laura Loomer, a far-right conspiracy theorist with a huge social media following, who is an informal yet influential White House adviser, posted a link to a news article in which she said "Trump is not implicated" in the Epstein files.
Along with messages of support, blowback on X came fast:
"How would you know."
"He literally partied with Epstein."
