Rosie O'Donnell calls for maintaining pressure on Trump administration over Epstein files: 'Keep talking'

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Rosie O’Donnell is urging the public not to let the Jeffrey Epstein controversy fade, posting a message on Instagram that reads, “Keep talking about Trump and Epstein.”

The comedian and longtime critic of President Donald Trump referenced his decision to walk back his promise to release the so-called Epstein files, a cache of federal investigation documents.

Rosie O’Donnell calls out Trump over Epstein files

O’Donnell’s Instagram post, displayed in bold red text, is one of several reminders she has shared encouraging people to keep pressing for answers. She has repeatedly criticized Trump, branding him a “criminal” during an interview on Ireland AM earlier this month.

“It’s worse every day. I feel like we’re in a dystopian nightmare, and no one is doing anything about it,” said

O’Donnell, who moved to Ireland in January, is seeking Irish citizenship.

Trump originally promised to release documents related to Epstein’s crimes during his reelection campaign but reversed course on July 7, when his administration announced no more records would be disclosed. The move sparked backlash and fueled conspiracy theories about what might be contained in the files.

Internet reacts to Rosie O'Donnell's warning on Epstein files

Rosie O’Donnell’s Instagram post urging people to “keep talking about Trump and Epstein” sparked a flood of reactions online, with users weighing in on the Epstein files, Ghislaine Maxwell, and political accountability.

One user wrote, "And don't forget Maxwell. She knows EVERYTHING!"

One said, "WE WILL never forget Epstein or Maxwell," and "EVERY SINGLE DAY!! NEVER BE SILENT!! We MUST be LOUDER!! 🔥🔥"

Another commented, "Why, there's no proof," while one asked, "I heard @agpambondi had them at her desk and was furious they hadn’t been released? (What changed?)."

Others joined in, "Yep ! Let’s see Clintons name along with a boat load of democrats."

"We should never stay quiet! 😡," commented a user.

Trump responds with denial and deflection on Epstein files

Trump has dismissed questions about his former friendship with Epstein, urging supporters on Truth Social not to “waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein.”

He has claimed the files were fabricated by “Comey… Obama… the Biden (administration),” despite  Attorney General Pam Bondi confirming in February that the records were awaiting review on her desk.

Trump also mocked critics by referring to Epstein as “a guy who never dies” and reacted with agitation when asked about their association. After they fell out, Elon Musk alleged on X that Trump was “in the Epstein files,” suggesting that was the reason for refusing their release.

The clash between O’Donnell and Trump dates back nearly 20 years, from her on-air criticism of him on 'The View' to his recent Truth Social post threatening to revoke her American citizenship.

“Because of the fact that Rosie O’Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship. She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!” Trump wrote on July 12.

O’Donnell’s latest warning underscores her effort to keep the Epstein investigation in public conversation, hoping the files will eventually be released.
