Alan Ritchson used a podcast appearance in New York this week to accuse Donald Trump of being 'all up into 13-year-olds' and to demand the full, unredacted release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, reigniting a political row that has followed the Reacher star for years.
The latest broadside came on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast, recorded ahead of new episodes of Amazon's Reacher, the muscular crime series whose fanbase skews heavily conservative. Ritchson, 43, has increasingly used his growing fame to slam Trump and US law enforcement, and he has leaned into that role even as parts of his own audience bristle at his politics.
