Trump, who says he had "no idea" at the time that Epstein sexually molested girls, told the police in 2006 that "everyone has known he’s been doing this.” That's according to an FBI interview with the then-Palm Beach police chief. Here's a gift link to Julie K. Brown's article in the Miami Herald.

When people like Pam Bondi fearmonger that our "Whole system will collapse" if the full Epstein files are released, they aren't talking about our system itself. They're talking about their place inside the system and control over it. And that should absolutely collapse. Today.
