Vice President Vance Calls Himself An Epstein ‘Conspiracy Theorist’. Vice President JD Vance has described himself as an Epstein “conspiracy theorist” during a politically charged appearance on ABC’s The View. The vice president said White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles considers him a conspiracy theorist, because of his long-standing questions about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his connections to powerful figures. Vance said he found it troubling that Epstein had relationships with wealthy and influential people and argued that the public deserves greater transparency about the case. During the interview, the hosts repeatedly challenged him over President Donald Trump’s past links to Epstein, prompting several tense exchanges. Vice President Vance defended President Trump, arguing that he helped authorities investigate Epstein and supported efforts to hold him accountable. The discussion also turned to race, history and diversity, with co-hosts questioning the administration’s policies affecting Black Americans and minority communities. Vance rejected accusations that the administration was sidelining people of colour and insisted it welcomes people from all backgrounds into its political coalition. The interview formed part of a major media tour promoting Vance’s new memoir, Communion, which has quickly climbed bestseller charts ahead of an expected 2028 presidential campaign.
