Majority don't believe FBI report on Epstein: Poll

A majority of voters don't believe what the government has to say about the Jeffrey Epstein case in what could prove bad news for President Donald Trump as he tries to move past the scandal, a recent poll found.

Overall, 56% of voters do not believe the FBI's conclusions about the late billionaire's death, according to a Rasmussen Reports survey. The bureau concluded that Epstein likely did kill himself, despite pervasive suspicions of foul play.

Just 21% believed the official FBI/Department of Justice narrative. A further 23% were unsure. The survey questioned 1,164 likely U.S. voters from July 8-10.

"This is brutal and the issue isn't going to go away," posted Rasmussen Reports' Mark Mitchell.

Trump, for his part, has repeatedly expressed support for the way Attorney General Pam Bondi's handling of the case. Bondi, however, has faced mounting calls for her resignation, especially in light of her orchestration of a botched "Phase 1" release of Epstein information to a group of influencers.
