Fox News cuts live interview after candidate accuses Trump over Epstein files

Fox News host Trace Gallagher abruptly cut the live feed of guest Oliver Larkin, a Democratic Socialist candidate challenging Rep. Jared Moskowitz in Florida’s 25th Congressional District primary. During the interview Larkin called President Donald Trump a pedophile and invoked the Jeffrey Epstein files, saying, “we need to hold this pedophile president Donald Trump accountable.” He also criticized ICE and demanded accountability for federal law‑enforcement officials.

Gallagher interrupted Larkin, asked how many child rapes would be acceptable relative to the size of the immigrant community, and then cut Larkin’s feed, switching to political strategist Mark Penn. The clip quickly spread online, highlighting the tension surrounding Trump, the Epstein files, and immigration policy. No court has found Trump guilty of any crime related to Epstein, and Trump continues to deny the accusations.
