US President Donald Trump criticised CNN reporter Kaitlin Collins on Tuesday (Feb 3), saying she 'never smiles' and she's the 'worst reporter' after she asked him questions relating to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The US Justice Department's recent release of millions of internal documents related to Epstein has revealed the late financier and sex offender's ties to many prominent people in politics, finance, academia and business - both before and after he pleaded guilty in 2008 to prostitution charges.

00:00And that was all the Great Big Beautiful Bill, as I call it, the Great Big Beautiful Bill.
00:03To me, that's what it is.
00:05A few months ago, you had in your office here Peter Mandelson, the British ambassador.
00:10You were shaking hands with him over a trade deal.
00:12He's today being forced to resign from the House of Lords, the upper house of the British Parliament,
00:17over his links to Jeffrey Epstein.
00:19Just wondered if you had any reaction to that, since obviously he was here.
00:22I didn't know about it, but I really don't know too much about it.
00:26I know who he is, but it's too bad.
00:30Yeah, what do you want?
00:31On the Epstein files, you talked about Democrats who were in there.
00:33Elon Musk was also in there, and so was your Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, and correspondents that he had with him.
00:38Did you read those new files that were published by the Department of Justice?
00:42No, I didn't. I have a lot of things I'm doing.
00:44A lot of things I'm doing. I don't know.
00:46You mentioned two names. I'm sure they're fine.
00:49I'm sure they're fine. Otherwise, it would have been major headlines.
00:52A lot of women who are survivors of Epstein's are unhappy with those redactions that came out.
00:57Some of the entire witness interviews are totally blacked out.
01:00Do you think that they should be more transparent?
01:01Well, we're also unhappy with the fact that they thought they released too much.
01:03I heard that, and you tell me something else.
01:07I think it's really time for the country to get onto something else.
01:11You know, now that nothing came out about me, other than it was a conspiracy against me, literally, by Epstein and other people.
01:20But I think it's time now for the country to maybe get onto something else.
01:25What would you say to people who don't have gotten justice, Mr. President?
01:28Something that people care about.
01:29You know, what did you say?
01:30What would you say to the survivors?
01:32You know, you are the worst reporter.
01:35No wonder.
01:36CNN has no ratings because of people like you.
01:38You know, she's a young woman.
01:40I don't think I've ever seen you smile.
01:42I've known you for 10 years.
01:44I don't think I've ever seen a smile on your face.
01:46You know why you're not smiling?
01:49Because you know you're not telling the truth.
01:51And you're a very dishonest organization.
01:54And they should be ashamed of you.
01:56Okay, go ahead.
01:57Mr. President, today we heard that Clinton set deposition dates to testify before the House Oversight Committee.
02:07Any reaction to that related to the Epstein question?
02:09I think it's a shame, to be honest.
02:12I always liked him.
02:13Her?
02:14Yeah.
02:15She's a very capable woman.
02:16She was better in debating than some of the other people, I will tell you that.
02:20She was smarter.
02:21Smart woman.
02:22And I hate to say it in many ways.
02:25I hate to say it.
02:25But, you know, then I look at me.
02:27They went after me like, you know, they wanted me to go to jail for the rest of my life.
02:32Then it turned out I was innocent.
02:34Very innocent.
02:35And so they tried to put me in jail.
02:38And I shouldn't feel this way, but I feel badly that they have to go through that.
02:45But then I say, but they did far worse than me.
02:48They wanted to put me in jail.
02:50Thank you for asking.
02:51Thank you, thank you.
02:52Thank you Press.
02:53Thank you Press.
02:54Thank you, Press.
02:55Let's go.
02:56Start moving.
02:59Let's go.
03:00Thank you, Press.
03:01Thank you, Press.
