Representative Tim Burchett has publicly alleged that the Biden administration destroyed files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Burchett expressed his belief that these Epstein client lists or files were likely destroyed during the previous administration, asserting that if any information had implicated former President Donald Trump, it would have been disclosed immediately under President Biden's tenure. This claim marks a reversal from earlier statements by Burchett, who had previously indicated that the FBI had found 14,000 new Epstein-related files. Burchett emphasized that the Epstein files did exist but were apparently removed or destroyed, raising questions about the handling and classification of these documents.
