I think this guy was likely shown pictures of him with various prostitutes, which go back all the way to his secret service days. It would mean getting him divorce raped, ran through the coals in the media and potentially the end of his career in any kind of political role or top government job. Even loss of things like sponsorships for his podcast grift. Also who knows, maybe some of these prostitutes were only 15-16 too, so there's statutory rape charges.
If you watch the interview with him and Kash Patel it's clear he's there to basically help babysit that retard and sell the idea that Epstein totally killed himself and there definitely wasn't any Mossad blackmail and sex trafficking network.
Being some mixed race mutt I think he thought he could pull it off, or that it was at least worth trying. But this nonsense of 'the list is on my desk' to 'what list' and 'who cares about Epstein?', I think even a mutt like him knows if he actually tries to defend that it just undermines what little credibility he has left. Dumb Pajeets like Patel won't though, they'll keep doubling and tripling down.
He obviously can't come clean either because he's under blackmail so if he can't defend it publicly to maintain the ruse it only leaves one option, which is to just go dark and let the news cycle move on and for people to forget.
