Jeffrey Epstein's brother said he 'laughed at how stupid' the Trump administration's handling of the 'Epstein files' has been and revealed he doesn't believe their assertion that the financier's death was a suicide.

The notorious pedophile's brother Mark told NewsNation's Chris Cuomo on Tuesday that he was not convinced by the White House's memo this week that said there is no evidence Epstein was murdered or kept a long-suspected 'client list.'

'Every time they say something or do something to try to quash the fact that he was most likely murdered, they just put their foot further down their mouths,' Mark Epstein said.

He particularly singled out FBI Director Kash Patel for his role in the Epstein files' release, noting how he U-turned from an ardent skeptic over Epstein's death to now insisting there was no 'cover up.'

Mark pointed to Patel's citing of his career as a prosecutor when he said that 'you know a suicide when you see it', despite Patel having no medical degree or qualifications as a forensic pathologist.

'The question that popped into my mind was, first of all, how many suicides has he seen? Is he a forensic pathologist? Does he have a medical degree?' Mark questioned.

'Does he have a certificate that he passed a CPR course? Does he have a Boy Scout merit badge for first aid? What is he basing his expertise on?'

Mark said that Patel's assertion over Epstein's death in 2019 contradicts what Dr. Kristin Roman, a medical examiner for New York City who conducted the autopsy on Epstein, said at the time.

'She came out of the autopsy and said she couldn’t call it a suicide because it looked too much like a homicide,' he claimed.

Dr. Michael Baden, who was hired by Mark Epstein at the time to be present at the autopsy, said at the time that Epstein suffered injuries that were more consistent with a homicide than a suicide.

He said Epstein had small burst capillaries in his face, mouth and eyes, and also had three distinct fractures on his jaw. 'I have never seen three fractures like this in a suicidal hanging,' he said, per CBS News.

Mark Epstein noted on NewsNation on Tuesday: 'Baden, who was there on my behalf, who witnessed the autopsy, also concurred that it looked more like a homicide than a suicide.'

'Now, was Kash Patel in that autopsy room? No,' he continued.

'Was Kash Patel in the prison when they found Jeffrey? No, I don’t think so, and if he was there that raises an even bigger question.'

Media outlets that spent years screeching about Jan. 6 and fawning over BLM riots are eager to ignore or dismiss violent ambushes of ICE officers.

Under the cover of darkness, 10 people, some carrying firearms, allegedly attacked the Prairieland Detention Center utilized by ICE in Alvarado, Texas, on July 4, shooting a police officer in the neck.

This is major news that should be plastered across the front pages and home pages of every prominent media outlet. It is a major crime with an apparent political motivation, allegedly committed by an Antifa terror cell. Along with numerous guns, communication radios, and body armor, investigators found members of the group with printed advertisements that included messages such as “Organising for Attack! INSURRECTIONARY ANARCHY,” according to the criminal complaint. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has charged 10 people with attempted murder of a federal officer.

So where are all the news stories screaming about an insurrection? Missing are the deep dives into the backgrounds of the 10 charged, who are named in the complaint: Cameron Arnold (also known as Autumn Hill), Savanna Batten, Nathan Baumann, Zachary Evetts, Joy Gibson, Bradford Morris (also known as Meagan Morris), Maricela Rueda, Seth Sikes, Elizabeth Soto, and Ines Soto.

CBS News doesn’t even mention the fact that a police officer was shot in this headline, “Suspects used graffiti, firearms, body armor in Fourth of July ambush outside North Texas ICE facility, officials say.” Neither did NBC’s headline, “10 charged after ambush at Texas’ ICE detention center,” nor did ABC, with its headline “10 arrested after ambush on Texas ICE detention facility, officials say.”

Days after the reported July 4 attack, on July 7, Ryan Louis Mosqueda was shot and killed after officials say he opened fire on U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents at the Border Patrol McAllen Station.

“There were many, many, many dozens of rounds fired … by the suspect towards the building, and towards agents in that building,” a spokesman said in a press conference.

The crimes raise questions that reporters don’t seem to have the appetite to answer. Like, are these incidents connected? Is this an organized movement? And if so, who is behind it? How did these people from different regions get connected? Who are they related to?

It appears that Cameron Arnold and Bradford Morris are men posing as women. Are they taking hormones, and if so, did the hormones affect their thinking? Were they purportedly shifting genders to distance themselves from criminal activity? Do they have criminal records from previous incidents? What can we learn from their digital footprints?

Similarly, on July 4, four people were arrested outside the Portland, Oregon, ICE field office, where protesters have been active since mid-June, using spray paint to scrawl graffiti of Antifa slogans. Several protesters there have been charged with assaulting a federal officer.

A story like this is normally catnip to reporters. But most in the propaganda press have regurgitated the DOJ press release and moved on.
