00:00Sure. Your memo and release yesterday in Jeffrey Epstein left some lingering

00:05mysteries. One of the biggest ones is whether he ever worked for an American

00:11or foreign intelligence agency. The former Labor Secretary, who was Miami

00:16U.S. Attorney Alex Costa, he allegedly said that he did work for an

00:21intelligence agency. So could you resolve whether or not he did? And also, could you

00:25say why there was a minute missing from the jailhouse tape on the night of the Senate?

00:29Yeah, sure. Could I just interrupt for a second? Are you still talking about Jeffrey

00:34Epstein? This guy's been talked about for years. You're asking, we have Texas, we have

00:40this, we have all of the things. And are people still talking about this guy, this

00:45creep? That is unbelievable. Do you want to waste the time? Do you feel like answering?

00:52I don't mind answering. I mean, I can't believe you're asking a question on Epstein

00:56at a time like this, where we're having some of the greatest success and also tragedy with

01:02what happened in Texas. It just seems like a desecration. But you go ahead.

01:08Sure, sure. First, to back up on that, in February, I did an interview on Fox, and it's

01:13been getting a lot of attention because I said, I was asked a question about the client list.

01:19And my response was, it's sitting on my desk to be reviewed, meaning the file along with

01:28the JFK, MLK files as well. That's what I meant by that. Also, to the tens of thousands of video,

01:36they turned out to be child porn downloaded by that disgusting Jeffrey Epstein. Child porn is what

01:42they were. Never going to be released. Never going to see the light of day. To him being an agent,

01:47I have no knowledge about that. We can get back to you on that. And the minute missing from the video,

01:54we released the video showing definitively, the video was not conclusive, but the evidence prior

02:04to it was showing he committed suicide. And what was on that, there was a minute that was off the

02:10counter. And what we learned from Bureau of Prisons was every year, every night, they redo that video.

02:17It was old from like 1999. So every night the video is reset and every night should have the

02:23same minute missing. So we're looking for that video to release that as well, showing that a

02:28minute is missing every night. And that's it on Epstein.
