MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell has sparked fresh controversy by accusing Vice President J.D. Vance of trying to push President Donald Trump out of office through his calls for the release of an alleged Jeffrey Epstein birthday letter.
The issue centers on an October podcast appearance by Vance on This Past Weekend with comedian Theo Von, where Vance supported making Epstein’s client list public.
O’Donnell seized on this to suggest Vance is undermining Trump amid the ongoing Epstein-related political battles.
“JD Vance, the person who would move up to the presidency if this issue becomes so difficult that it drives Donald Trump out of the presidency,” O’Donnell stated.
He added, “If JD Vance creates a groundswell demand by more and more Trump supporters for the release of that letter, that could do more damage to Donald Trump than anything that has ever happened to Donald Trump in his entire political career.”
O’Donnell further said, “If JD Vance wanted to harm Donald Trump tonight, wanted to start forcing him out of the presidency, demanding to see the letter would be a very good way to do that.”
Vance has publicly rejected the Wall Street Journal’s reporting on the letter as “complete and utter bullsh*t.”
He criticized the outlet on social media for publishing the story without giving Trump a chance to review the letter first.
“Where is this letter? Would you be shocked to learn they never showed it to us before publishing it? Does anyone honestly believe this sounds like Donald Trump?” Vance questioned.
“Doesn’t it violate some rule of journalistic ethics to publish a letter like this without showing it to the victim of this hit piece?” he added.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the Epstein letter allegations as a “coordinated Hoax by the Democrats and Fake News to smear President Trump,” noting that the WSJ reportedly does not even have possession of the letter, BizPac Review reports.
O’Donnell has a history of stirring controversy.
Earlier this year, he made headlines by claiming that military veterans have carried out more deadly acts of terrorism within the U.S. than illegal immigrants.
“It is very clear from the evidence that if you want to worry about terrorism in this country, the United States Army is a much bigger problem than the southern border,” he said.
This remark drew criticism from across the political spectrum and highlighted O’Donnell’s provocative style and readiness to challenge commonly accepted narratives, as Resist the Mainstream previously reported.
The Epstein files controversy continues to draw political attention, with figures like O’Donnell adding to the ongoing debate within the Republican Party and the Trump administration.
His recent comments on Vance’s motives reflect the broader tensions surrounding the case.
Vance has reiterated her call for transparency, urging the release of the Epstein client list while rejecting unverified claims, including questions about the birthday letter’s authenticity.
As the controversy unfolds, the clash between media portrayals and political realities remains a central point in public discussion, with both sides leveraging the Epstein issue to advance their agendas.
