Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) on Sunday slammed President Donald Trump for backing further investigations into Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting the inquiries are little more than a “last-ditch effort” to stop further information on the deceased New York financier from being released to the public.

“You know, the president’s been saying this is a hoax. He’s been saying that for months. Well, he’s just now decided to investigate a hoax, if it’s a hoax,” Massie said during an ABC interview , referring to Trump’s recent decision to ask the Department of Justice and FBI to scrutinize Epstein’s ties to leading Democrats.
