Susie Wiles, President Donald Trump’s understated but influential chief of staff, criticized Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case and offered an unvarnished take on her boss and those in his orbit in interviews published Tuesday in Vanity Fair that sent the West Wing into damage control.

White House chief of staff Susie Wiles shared details about the controversial transfer in a new interview with Vanity Fair.

"Wiles said that Trump 'was on [Epstein’s] plane…he’s on the manifest. They were, you know, sort of young, single, whatever—I know it’s a passé word but sort of young, single playboys together.'" The post Susie Wiles Told Vanity Fair Trump Was on Jeffrey Epstein’s Plane: ‘He’s on the Manifest’ first appeared on Mediaite.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has claimed Vanity Fair deliberately doctored their White House expose to make Donald Trump’s team “look bad.” The prestigious magazine published an explosive two-part exclusive on Tuesday, based on a year of interviews with Trump’s Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and other Trump figureheads by reporter Chris Whipple.
