Scott Jennings: ‘We should call it the Clinton files, not the Epstein files’

CNN’s breathless coverage of the Epstein files was briefly interrupted by Scott Jennings and his wit.

Scott was asked to weigh in on the Department of Justice’s release of additional files from the Jeffrey Epstein matter, which left many unsatisfied. He was asked whether the Trump administration’s failure to comply with the agreement it signed to ensure complete and total transparency gives “more fodder” for conspiracy theories.

Watch:

“Scott, don’t you think that because they are not releasing everything that Congress and the president signed to say ‘You have to release this in 30 days,’ doesn’t it give more fodder for the conspiracies that exist. I mean, they’re not following the law,” the commentator was asked.

“Well, look, they’ve released how many documents tonight? 200,000 or more? 400? So, a good faith effort is being made to release files tonight,” Jennings said. “They’re obviously doing that, and I think as it relates to redactions, my impression is that there’s a whole lot of names of victims in there, minor and other people you wouldn’t want to release. And they do need to be redacted.”

“Regarding Bill Clinton, I’m sorry to tell you, the reason that Bill Clinton’s picture is in the Epstein files is because this has always been a story about Bill Clinton and not Donald Trump. We should call it the Clinton files, not the Epstein files,” he quipped. “That’s what we’re learning tonight. This is the Clinton files. This was the blowing up in the face of the Democrats … It’s Bill Clinton, this is a story about Democrats and Bill Clinton. And it’s always been that way.”
