Pod Save America: Trump's Epstein Problem Just Got Worse
Feb 10, 2026 Pod Save America
Epstein revelations continue. New files reveal that the notorious sex offender had closer relationships than previously known with Trump's inner circle, including Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Ghislaine Maxwell pleads the Fifth to Congress, while her lawyer says she's "prepared to speak fully and honestly" if Trump agrees to let her out of prison. While Jon, Tommy, and Lovett are overseas, Alex Wagner and Ben Rhodes discuss how the files are rattling politicians around the world, and why consequences have been more severe abroad than in the U.S. There's also the fight to put limits on ICE playing out in the courts and Congress, Trump's scheme to celebrate America's 250th birthday with a fresh grift, and why RFK Jr. can't be trusted with the Super Bowl snacks.
