On Sunday, Fugal posted a graphic demanding accountability for what he called the largest child abuse ring in history, captioning it 'We the people need justice & accountability.' The post came as the DOJ released nearly 3.5 million pages on January 30, 2026, under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, including videos, images, flight logs, and records from Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell cases. Attorney General Pam Bondi listed hundreds of politically exposed persons on February 15, while lawmakers from both parties questioned the process and experts noted mentions do not imply guilt. Fugal's message echoed widespread calls online for a full reckoning, though no new prosecutions have emerged.
