Jeffrey Epstein

GOP Oversight Chairman Lies that 85% of Trump-Epstein Pervs are Democrats’ – Reality Disagrees

Posted by on February 25, 2026 at 1:45 pm. 0 Comments :

This week the news cycle was interrupted by the annual State of the Union address that is delivered by the president. And true to form, the current occupier of the White House, Donald Trump, unloaded a record long harangue that surely didn’t disappoint his glassy-eyed cult followers who hungered for more red meat hostility aimed at Democrats, women, foreigners, and the rest of the anti-Trump realists that they have been brainwashed to hate. It was nearly two hours of innumerable lies, insults, and shameless self-exaltations for imaginary accomplishments.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

And now, back to our regularly scheduled programming. Trump’s SOTU speech is unlikely to move the needle on his historically abysmal disapproval ratings. So the attention of the American people is going to quickly return to the issues that they care most about, which Trump largely ignored in his speech. They include the economy and the high cost of living, immigration and Trump’s ICE thugs terrorizing them and their neighbors, and the horrific crimes committed by Trump and his confederates in association with Jeffrey Epstein.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Flack, Karoline Leavitt, is Spinning Furiously to Cover Up His Epstein Ties

To the dismay of Trump and his toadies, the Epstein scandal is not going to go away. Particularly if they keep trying to cover it up and/or sweep it under the rug. But that won’t stop them from trying. Leading the charge from Congress is the Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer. On Wednesday morning he took up his usual post on Fox News to disseminate his partisan propaganda. And typically, he lied to Fox host Harris Faulkner about the key participants in the Epstein affair, and whether he intended to interview any Republicans.

“The truth of the matter is that about 85% of the people that were prominent who were involved with Epstein are, you know, Democrats. So we’re gonna continue to question whoever they are regardless of political party or political identification, but the fact of the matter is the majority of the people were Democrats.”

That is about as brazen a lie as he could possibly have manufactured. While there certainly are some Democrats who associated with Epstein, the vast majority of his creepy comrades, as exposed in the Trump-Epstein files and elsewhere, were Republicans or their GOP supporters. Here’s a list of the best known people associated with Epstein…

  • REPUBLICANS:
  • Donald J. Trump
  • Melania Trump
  • Elon Musk
  • Alan Dershowitz
  • Howard Lutnick
  • Kevin Warsh
  • Steve Bannon
  • Tom Barrack
  • Peter Thiel
  • DEMOCRATS:
  • Bill Clinton

Despite this evidence that many more Republicans have fraternized with Epstein, Comer and his committee haven’t called a single one of them testify. He has, however, called Bill and Hillary Clinton, who have both agreed to be interviewed. What’s more, the Clintons have been forthright in their demands that all of the Trump-Epstein files be released. While Trump and Comer and the rest of the Republican pedophile protectors continue to obstruct the release.

If Comer were telling the truth, that 85% of those involved with Epstein were Democrats (he isn’t), then wouldn’t he and Trump and the Republicans have more incentive to release all of the files unredacted? Why are Democrats so fervently advocating for full transparency, while Republicans are opposed to it? What are they afraid of?

Perhaps it has something to do with all of the evidence that Trump’s relationship with Epstein included his participation in criminal activities. A new report reveals that Trump’s “Justice” Department is actively suppressing such evidence. According to NPR…

“The Justice Department has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds. It also removed some documents from the public database where accusations against Jeffrey Epstein also mention Trump.

“Some files have not been made public despite a law mandating their release. These include what appear to be more than 50 pages of FBI interviews, as well as notes from conversations with a woman who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago when she was a minor.”

Democrats have been adamant that the Trump-Epstein files must be released. They are willing to let the chips fall where they may. But Republicans are determined to prevent that from happening. Partisans like Comer are abusing their power to shield Trump from accountability. And he isn’t shy about admitting it. He told Fox News that “Look, I support the president. I’m gonna do whatever the president wants.” Which doesn’t seem like something someone in charge of “Oversight” should be saying or doing.

James Comer is the MAGA GOP chair of the House Oversight Committee. Which he seems to think is the Committee for treating all of Trump's crimes as an oversight.The good news is that he's such an idiot that his partisan hearings invariably make himself and Trump look worse.

REALLY? Trump Just Posted a 5 Year Old Video of 2020 Election Lies that Got OAN Sued for Millions

Posted by on February 18, 2026 at 12:50 pm. 0 Comments :

How desperate is Donald Trump to deflect from his unsavory relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and the files that he is working so hard to suppress? Desperate enough to post long ago debunked lies that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, Twitter

Early Wednesday morning Trump was busy avoiding any of the actual duties of a legitimate national leader by posting self-serving comments to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. It’s a daily ritual of the ridiculous as Trump unloads an endless stream of absurdity, anger, and whining, that he seems to believe make him look strong. Poor baby has a lot on his mind…

SEE THIS: CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

One particular post by Trump vividly displays just how worried he is about the faltering state of his presidency, his historically depressed approval ratings, and the dismal prospects for his crumbling MAGA movement in the upcoming midterm elections. While he has never let go of his obsession with having lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, Trump posted a comment that reaches a pathetic new low, even for him. The post said in part that…

“In the 2020 election, states using Dominion voting machines allegedly switched 435,000 votes from Trump to Biden and deleted 2.7 MILLION Trump votes. […] The mainstream media, Dominion, ES&S, and many Democrats lied about voting machines.”

Trump just posted this 5 year old OAN video alleging that the 2020 election was stolen.OAN was sued for defamation over these lies. They cost Fox News $787 million.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-18T20:29:43.992Z

Trump’s post links to a video from One America News Network (OAN). They were sued by Dominion Voting Systems for their lies that Dominion conspired to rig the election. They are the same lies that Fox News ended up paying a settlement to Dominion for 3/4 of a billion dollars.

OAN has already settled a defamation suit brought by a former Dominion executive in 2023, as well as a defamation suit brought by Smartmatic, another voting-tech company, in April 2024. But it has not reached a settlement with Dominion Voting Systems itself.

Nevertheless, this is what Trump saw fit to present to his cult disciples this morning. It’s essentially the same message that he tweeted five years ago…

Trump is going to be sorely disappointed that this scheme doesn’t distract people from his accountability for his Epstein affiliation. This won’t work any better than his threats to Greenland, his persecution of Democrats in Congress, or his efforts to aggrandize himself by renaming the Kennedy Center. To the contrary, it will only remind people of his corruption and dishonesty. So the best response to him now is simply, “Please proceed, Mr. Trump”

Disgraced CBS News Is Intent On Keeping a Known Jeffrey Epstein Associate On Its News Team

Posted by on February 16, 2026 at 1:46 pm. 0 Comments :

One of the core missions of Donald Trump in his second occupation of the White House has been the total subjugation of the free press. He has assaulted it with retributive prosecutions, meritless lawsuits, and always infantile insults aimed at honest journalists (mostly women) who had the audacity to report the truth about him.

Donald Trump on CBS News (See BS)

Sadly, Trump has had some success in that brazenly fascist undertaking due to the cowardice and/or complicity of some the big media conglomerates who feared Trump’s retribution or who were feebly seeking favor from the corrupt and self-serving Trump regime. Their subservience has been evident in their groveling concessions to settle ludicrous legal disputes by paying millions of dollars in phony damages – aka bribes. And none has more obviously knelt down to Herr Trump than the toadies at Paramount.

SEE THIS: Paramount Caves to Trump’s Extortion, Disgraces CBS, Pays a $16M Bribe to Settle a Bogus Lawsuit

Now CBS has embarked on a new and more insidious scandal involving a sleazy “doctor,” Peter Attia, with known ties to child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, that he admits. CBS is owned by Paramount, which in turn is owned by Trump’s buddy and fellow billionaire, Larry Ellison. His corporate monolith is now seeking, via a hostile stock bid, to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, which owns, among other things, CNN. Trump has already given his blessing to that proposed merger, despite the fact that Warner has accepted an offer from Netflix. Perhaps that’s because Ellison promised to make changes that Trump wants.

Shortly after Ellison merged his company with Skydance Media, owned by his son, David, they installed the notoriously right-wing blogger, Bari Weiss, to run CBS News, even though she had zero experience or qualifications to assume that position. Her brief tenure has already seen her make some abhorrent decisions, including censoring CBS’ 60 Minutes by nixing a segment on the El Salvador torture camp that Trump has been sending migrants to.

A few weeks ago Weiss announced that she was going to hire a bunch of MAGA-tized cronies from her Internet website to join CBS News. Among them was the disreputable “doctor” Attia. But that announcement was quickly marred by a revelation that ought to have doomed his appointment. According to The Guardian…

“Two weeks after a trove of files revealed extensive – and inappropriate – communications between Jeffrey Epstein and a recently named CBS News contributor, the longevity expert Peter Attia, the network appears to have settled on keeping him. […] Attia is one of the 19 on-air contributors that editor-in-chief Bari Weiss said she was ‘so excited’ to announce.” […]

“[O]n 30 January, the justice department’s release of millions of documents showed that Attia had expressed a fondness for Epstein and used extremely graphic language in at least one email to him. That Attia had met with Epstein was previously known before CBS News hired him.”

Attia’s name appears in the Epstein files more than 1,800 times. His emails to Epstein express his unsettling affection for him, as well as his creepy concern that he “can’t tell a soul” about their unsavory friendship. He also recalls that he felt “spoiled after staying in your great place.” And yet, Attia defended the relationship saying that “I was not involved in any criminal activity.” Nevertheless, he went on to say that “I apologize and regret putting myself in a position where emails, some of them embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible, are now public.”

Notice that Attia is defending what he just called indefensible. And it appears that the only problem he has with any of it is that it became public. How Weiss and the Ellisons can continue to justify the hiring of this slimeball is incomprehensible. But it is consistent with the immorality that is the hallmark of the Era of Trump and the aversion to ethics that Trump represents and for which he is the role model of indecency. So Attia will fit right in.

UPDATE: Attia has quietly resigned from CBS News following the pressure from a broad array of bipartisan critics. Keep up the pressure on the MAGA media and all things Trump. IT WORKS!

The Clintons Agree to Give Testimony About Epstein – Dementia J. Trump Thinks He Already Did

Posted by on February 8, 2026 at 1:51 pm. 1 Comments :

When Donald Trump was running for reelection, a prominent part of his campaign was a promise of full transparency with regard to the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal of pedophiles. Trump and his supporters – some of whom later became members of his administration – swore that they would release the Epstein files and bring the ring of pervs to justice.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

Not only did Trump break that promise, he did everything in his power to avoid releasing the files. He lied flagrantly that there was nothing in them that would incriminate him. And he relentlessly sought to smear others without offering any shred of evidence.

SEE THIS: HUH? Trump Orders Pam Bondi to Investigate Bill Clinton and Other Democrats Re: Jeffrey Epstein

Among the most desperate ploys of Trump and his flunkies was their efforts to malign Hillary and Bill Clinton. It’s a common tactic on the right to project onto others the crimes that they know they are guilty of. But in Trump’s case, he is so inept that his attempts at character assassination fell flat, serving only to make him look even more scared, dishonest, and guilty.

This week the Clintons agreed to testify before Congress on the Epstein matter. They agreed even though the committee is chaired by the biggest Clinton hater on Capitol Hill, James Comer. Nevertheless, in a demonstration of confidence and courage, the Clintons accepted the invitation to testify. What’s more, they sought to make the hearings public, which Comer has so far refused to do. As reported by The Guardian…

“Former US president Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary are calling for their congressional testimony on ties to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to be held publicly, to prevent Republicans from politicising the issue. […]

“Democrats say the probe is being weaponised to attack political opponents of president Donald Trump – himself a longtime Epstein associate who has not been called to testify – rather than to conduct legitimate oversight.”

By contrast, Trump continues to dodge any accountability for his longtime relationship with Epstein. Trump’s 38,000 mentions in the files that have been released to date (only about half of them) has not resulted in his relenting on his staunch opposition to the transparency that he once promised. Never mind that he keeps saying that he is totally innocent and the files would prove that. If that were true he would have released those files months ago.

Instead, Trump is making astonishingly bizarre comments when asked about Epstein and himself. For example, NBC News anchor Tom Llamas interviewed Trump prior to Super Bowl which produced the following exchange…

Llamas: NBC broke the story that the Democrats are already saying that if you bring President Bill Clinton, and he has to to testify [on Epstein], we’ll bring in president Trump. What do say to that?
Trump: I think they might say that, you know. But they’ve already brought me. See I’ve been brought. They had me indicted many many times. Many many times.

That reply is a unique combination of Trump’s dishonesty and mental impairment. He certainly was never “brought” before Congress. If he thinks that he was, he’s remembering something that came straight out of his warped imagination and has no resemblance to reality.

Furthermore, Trump’s reference to having been indicted is equally ridiculous. None of his indictments led to any testimony. And he has never been asked to respond to anything related to Epstein under oath. He didn’t testify at all in the “hush money” case where he was convicted of 34 felonies. And the other crimes for which he was indicted were never brought to trial after the Supreme Court granted him immunity for virtually any crime that he had committed, or would commit in the future.

So to summarize, Americans can make up their own minds about the Epstein investigations and Trump’s involvement. Here is what all three of these people have said about it in the past few days…

  • Bill Clinton: Let’s stop the games + do this the right way: in a public hearing.
  • Hillary Clinton: If you want this fight…let’s have it in public.
  • Donald Trump: I think it’s really time for the country to maybe get onto something else, now that nothing came out about me.

Who do you believe?

The Epstein Defiles: GOP Chairman Threatens Bill and Hillary Clinton with Contempt of Congress

Posted by on December 14, 2025 at 1:49 pm. 0 Comments :

Last month a nearly unanimous bipartisan vote in Congress (to which Donald Trump vehemently objected) ordered the release of the Epstein files that are in the custody of Trump’s “Justice” Department. They have until Friday, December 19, to comply. Although, with the track record of the Trump regime ignoring their legal obligations, it is by no means certain that they will meet that deadline.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

In the meantime, a batch of photographs obtained from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate were released by congressional Democrats that revealed the relationships between Epstein and Trump, as well as a few others, including Steve Bannon, Alan Dershowitz, and Bill Clinton. Of course the only persons that Trump is interested in investigating are Democrats. And he made that clear to his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi.

SEE THIS: HUH? Trump Orders Pam Bondi to Investigate Bill Clinton and Other Democrats Re: Jeffrey Epstein

As the walls close in around Trump, his MAGA minions in the House of Representatives are working furiously to shield him from any accountability. For the most part, that means deflecting attention away from Trump and unto his political foes. Consequently, James Comer, the GOP chair of the House “Persecution of Democrats” Committee (aka the Oversight Committee), is now threatening Bill and Hillary Clinton with contempt of Congress for not yet having complied with his vindictive subpoenas to appear for depositions on the Epstein matter.

If the Clintons have any useful information about Epstein and his criminal activities, they should give testimony to Congress and cooperate with the probe. However, it is notable that the only people that Comer has threatened with contempt are the Clintons. Others who have had documented connections to Epstein have not been been under such pressure. And that includes the man that Epstein said was his best friend for 15 years, Donald Trump.

Comer has led numerous politically prejudicial investigations during his tenure as committee chair. They include probes into President Biden’s financial records, an impeachment inquiry, and his use of the autopen. Comer also held prolonged investigations of Hunter Biden. None of these purely partisan probes produce even a shred of evidence of any wrongdoing. But that hasn’t deterred Comer from trying again…and again…and again.

The Epstein hearings would be far more interesting and useful if Trump were subpoenaed to testify. Also other Trump allied folks like Steve Bannon, Ghislaine Maxwell, Alan Dershowitz, and Peter Theil. But Comer and the Republicans on the committee don’t seem to be interested in any of them. However, the Clintons are being threatened with contempt.

At this rate it won’t be long until Comer tries to drag President Obama into this. Or maybe Nancy Pelosi, or Jimmy Kimmel, or any other completely unrelated person that Trump despises and seeks vengeance against. That’s his modus operandi. And Comer is his obedient supplicant who does his bidding without question. Just like everyone in Trump’s Cabinet of shameless toadies, for whom the cause of serving justice has been supplanted by the devotion to serving Dear Leader.

STRANGE DAYS: One Trump Renounces Marjorie Taylor Greene, Another Trump Embraces John Fetterman

Posted by on November 15, 2025 at 2:35 pm. 2 Comments :

Whoever said that “politics makes strange bedfellows.” probably wasn’t thinking about the perversions of pedophiles in the political arena. But that interpretation is more apt today in the wake of what we now know about child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, and his long time friend Donald Trump.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

The Epstein saga has survived long after the villainous degenerate’s demise. And its longevity is largely due to the cowardly reticence of Trump, and his MAGA minions in Congress and the press, to be forthcoming about his role in the matter. To the contrary, he has been fiercely suppressing any discussion or disclosure that would have the potential to exonerate him if he were not in fact guilty.

SEE THIS: Why Won’t Republicans Release the Epstein Files That They Keep Insisting Will Exonerate Trump?

Consequently, the controversy over the question of releasing the Epstein files in the possession of Trump’s “Justice” Department just keeps snowballing. And among the outgrowths of the bizarre storyline are the coalitions and conflicts that have developed.

For instance, one of Trump’s most fervent supporters throughout his occupations of the White House has been Georgia QAnon Representative, Marjorie Taylor Greene. When not proffering her theories on “Jewish space lasers” and the “Gazpacho Police,” she was promoting Trump as a near deity who could never be wrong.

That is until this business of Epstein and the files that Trump is so desperately trying to bury. Greene’s punishment for defying Trump’s mission to muzzle all things Epstein has resulted in her being cast out of the Trump cult. on Friday Trump posted a lengthy diatribe disparaging Greene on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, saying in part that…

“I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene. […] all I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!”

Setting aside that Trump appears to be describing himself, his complaint against Greene was triggered almost entirely by her staunch advocacy of releasing the Epstein files. Although Trump may also have been bothered by her concern for the welfare of her constituents who have been harmed by Trump’s policies on healthcare and his tariffs that have raised the cost of living.

The bottom line for Trump, of course, is that Greene failed to be wholly obedient and subservient. You have to wonder what is going to become of Greene’s boyfriend, Brian Glenn, who is a dedicated Trump-fluffing reporter. Meanwhile, Trump’s anger drove him to post a subsequent comment declaring that “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Green is a disgrace to our GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY!” To which Greene responded on Twitter/X saying that…

“President Trump just attacked me and lied about me. […] he’s coming after me hard to make an example to scare all the other Republicans before next weeks vote to release the Epstein files. […] But I don’t worship or serve Donald Trump.”

Ironically, while Donald Trump was laying into Greene, his daughter-in-lawlessness and Fox News host, Lara Trump, was on Fox and Friends gushing over Democratic senator, John Fetterman. Ms. Lara seems to regard herself as an expert on what Democrats should think and do. And she is enamored with Fetterman’s alleged moderate positions and willingness to bash his fellow Democrats…

“He’s a person who the Democrats may want to look at and emulate a little bit more. He’s the most common sense Democrat in the entire party. I would say John Fetterman has more in common with Donald Trump than he does with the general population of the Democrat Party at this point. They need more of him not less of him. So they might want to embrace that.”

Why Lara thinks that having more in common with Trump than other Democrats would make Fetterman more appealing to Democrats is a mystery. And while Fetterman has been a bit of a disappointment to Democrats in some respects, he still votes more often with his party than he does against it. Particularly notable is that he is strongly in favor of releasing the Epstein files. Just like Greene.

However, for some reason Fetterman’s stance on the Epstein files hasn’t made him a pariah to the GOP as it has done for Greene. And Fox News has been actively praising him. But if you want an alternative view from an actual Democratic Party moderate, here is what James Carville had to say to Fox…

HUH? Trump Orders Pam Bondi to Investigate Bill Clinton and Other Democrats Re: Jeffrey Epstein

Posted by on November 14, 2025 at 11:10 am. 0 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump is rising to unprecedented heights. Only a few days ago new revelations about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein were disclosed in emails that Epstein wrote that further implicate Trump in his unsavory and illegal affairs. It was a bombshell story that overwhelmed the breaking news of the end of the record setting 43 day Trump Shutdown.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump and Bill Clinton

For the first 24 hours after the Epstein disclosure, Trump posted nothing on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. That’s extraordinarily uncommon for the online Troll-in-Chief. He must have been profoundly shaken by the public exposure of his lack of morality. Which he needn’t be because everyone already knows that. Maybe he was just huddling with advisors to figure out a way to spin the bad news.

SEE THIS: Trump Mouthpiece Whines that the Epstein Story Gets More Press than Trump ‘Winning’ the Shutdown

However, Trump’s reticence to disseminate more lies appears to have been overcome this morning as he has posted a couple of tediously long comments on the Epstein matter that actually make him look even more guilty. In the first comment Trump whined pitifully that…

“The Democrats are doing everything in their withering power to push the Epstein Hoax again, despite the DOJ releasing 50,000 pages of documents, in order to deflect from all of their bad policies and losses, especially the SHUTDOWN EMBARRASSMENT.” [And that…]

“Some Weak Republicans have fallen into their clutches because they are soft and foolish. Epstein was a Democrat, and he is the Democrat’s problem, not the Republican’s problem!” [And whined…]

“Don’t waste your time with Trump. I have a Country to run!”

Trump is well aware that the documents released by his “Justice” Department thus far are all innocuous distractions that have been sanitized of any mention of his name, or other incriminating information. And as for the alleged “SHUTDOWN EMBARRASSMENT,” that really lands squarely on Trump and his MAGA minions in Congress. Democrats succeeded in raising the awareness of the cruelty of Trump and the GOP, and the American people saw right through those efforts to gaslight them.

Enten: "Trump is 39 below water on the Epstein case. 39 points in the negative! My goodness gracious. What Trump has been selling on the Epstein files, the Epstein case, the American people have not been buying at all … less than half of Republicans are buying it. This is his worst issue by far"

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-11-13T14:21:38.755Z

Trump’s comment went on to attack his own party as “weak,” “soft,” and “foolish.” And it’s hard to argue with him about that. But in this case he’s making the accusation because they had the courage to defy him, for a change. And he simply cannot comprehend or tolerate that. So he lashed out with obviously desperate allegations charging that Epstein is “the Democrats problem.” It was an angle that he liked so much that he elaborated on it in his second comment, along with a menacing threat…

“Now that the Democrats are using the Epstein Hoax, involving Democrats, not Republicans, to try and deflect from their disastrous SHUTDOWN, and all of their other failures, I will be asking A.G. Pam Bondi, and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s involvement and relationship with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, Chase, and many other people and institutions.”

First of all, if Trump really believed that Epstein was “the Democrat’s problem,” he would release all of the files immediately to expose them. Instead, he’s fiercely battling to keep them secret. What does that tell you about who he really thinks are the problem?

More disturbing is Trump’s continuing weaponization of the DoJ to persecute his perceived political enemies. He has already ordered his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, to indict former FBI Director James Comey, New York Attorney General Letitia James, Rep. Adam Schiff, and Rep. Eric Swalwell. All on the same trumped up charge of mortgage fraud, which he himself was found liable of in a New York civil suit.

A significant difference between Democrats and Republicans is that Democrats aren’t afraid of investigating anyone who might be guilty of sex crimes in association with Epstein. But it’s painfully conspicuous that Trump is only interested in going after Democrats. He literally demanded his GOP cohorts to not “waste your time with Trump.”

Trump and others on the right have questioned why Democrats didn’t release the Epstein files during the term of President Biden. The answer to that is simple, but still to complex for Trump and MAGA to grasp. For one thing, the Biden administration wasn’t weaponizing the Justice Department. And more substantively, the criminal case of Epstein’s partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, was still in progress at the time. And it is improper to release evidence while a case is ongoing.

Trump went on to complain that “This is another Russia, Russia, Russia Scam with all arrows pointing to the Democrats.” Which is just his goto whimpering about any of the many credible charges against him. He also alleged that records show that Democrats “spent large portions of their life with Epstein.” But for some reason, he has never produced those alleged records. However, the evidence of his long and close friendship with Epstein has been public for years.

Trump’s attempt to shift criminal suspicion to Democrats isn’t going to work. The public is already aware of his rank immorality and convinced of his guilt. These comments will only serve to make him look more guilty and desperate. But at this point, it’s all that he has left. And the worse things get for him, the more outrageously he will react. So don’t be surprised if he pulls a “Wag the Dog” move and declares war on Venezuela.

UPDATE: Pam Bondi has predictably obeyed Trump’s unethical command to launch an investigation into Democrats and Epstein. She posted a comment on Twitter/X saying…

“Thank you, Mr. President. SDNY U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton is one of the most capable and trusted prosecutors in the country, and I’ve asked him to take the lead. As with all matters, the Department will pursue this with urgency and integrity to deliver answers to the American people.”

So Bondi is agreeing to persecute only Democrats and leave the more likely pedophile Trump alone. We can expect the “urgency and integrity” of Bondi to reflect the immorality and corruption for which she and Trump are so well known.

Trump Mouthpiece Whines that the Epstein Story Gets More Press than Trump ‘Winning’ the Shutdown

Posted by on November 13, 2025 at 1:29 pm. 1 Comments :

This week has seen a couple of significant stories competing for the attention of the media. One of them is the end of the longest government shutdown in United States history, which broke the record set by Donald Trump in his first occupation of the White House. The other story is the Jeffrey Epstein emails that implicate Trump in his pedophilia activities.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump

Both of those are important stories to keep the public informed about the state of the government and the affairs (no pun intended) of the president. However, one of them is weighed down by the dull details of economics, while the other is bursting with the excitement of scandal and melodrama. So take a guess. Which one is the media most anxious to cover? And subsequently, which one is the Trump regime most worried about?

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Flack, Karoline Leavitt, is Spinning Furiously to Cover Up His Epstein Ties

That’s right. Trump has been working feverishly to suppress any media mentions of the Epstein story. He is blasting the press for promoting what he calls a “hoax” (as usual). And he is pressuring his MAGA minions in Congress to deep six the issue. Meanwhile, he is hardly talking about the shutdown at all. As of this writing, he hasn’t posted a single comment on it in more than 24 hours on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. But not to worry. His Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is on the job. She tweeted Tuesday morning that…

“If not for the Jeffrey Epstein story, CNN would be forced to talk about how Chuck Schumer and the Democrats got shellacked by President Trump and Republicans in the government shutdown fight. It’s clear this is another Democrat + Mainstream Media hoax.”

See? The Epstein story is just another hoax that is being spun by the fake news. And if Epstein’s emails, that tell of Trump having spent hours with an Epstein victim in Epstein’s home, weren’t revealed, we would all be “forced” to talk about Trump’s magnificence at “shellacking” the Democrats.

The problem with Leavitt’s argument, besides her callous dismissal of the gross and potentially illegal behavior of Trump, is that there was no “shellacking” of Democrats to brag about. To the contrary, Democrats crushed Trump and his MAGA Republicans by raising the issue of healthcare to the top of the news cycle.

Democrats also succeeded in attributing the blame for the shutdown – and all of the harm it has caused for the American people – to Trump and the GOP in Congress. They also insured that a vote will be held to hold the GOP accountable for the skyrocketing healthcare insurance premiums. They also secured funding for SNAP for a full year.

To be sure, there are problems with the agreement to open the government, but they pale in comparisons to the gains, and they will be brought up again in two months when this Continuing Resolution expires.

The bottom line is that compassionate Democrats compromised in order to get SNAP funding for children, seniors, and others flowing. While simultaneously putting the cruelty of Trump and the Republicans on display. And the evidence of that was shown in the latest polls that have Trump underwater on every major issue, particularly the economy and the Epstein files…

TRUMP IS TOAST!CNN's Harry Enten: "Trump is 39 points below water on the Epstein case. […] Less than half of Republicans are buying it."Also, Trump is losing BIGLY on every one of these other issues. How can his MAGA Republicans continue to back him?

If these numbers hold – or more likely worsen – for the MAGA movement, there will be a massive blue tsunami next November. And while Democrats get most of the credit for that, Republicans can take some pride in knowing that they were at least partially responsible for sinking their own ship.

Trump’s Press Flack, Karoline Leavitt, is Spinning Furiously to Cover Up His Epstein Ties

Posted by on November 12, 2025 at 1:33 pm. 1 Comments :

Donald Trump and his MAGA Minions have been pulling out all the stops to protect him, and any other adjacent pedophiles, from the revelations that are lurking in the “Justice” Department’s files of child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. Their determination to keep those files secret belie their claims that they would prove Trump’s innocence. If that were true, they would have released them long ago.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

On Wednesday a new batch of Epstein’s emails were made public by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. They revealed more about how deeply Epstein and Trump were connected. So naturally, Trump Propaganda Secretary, Karoline had to make an appearance in the White House Press Briefing Room to lie about the emails and Trump’s frequent mentions in them. It’s what she has been been doing – very badly – for months…

Among the disclosures about Trump in the emails was Epstein’s statement that one of his victims “spent hours at my house with him [Trump],” and that “Of course he knew about the girls.” At the press briefing Leavitt was asked about the emails by CBS News Senior White House Correspondent, Weijia Jiang.

Jiang: Separate from why you believe these emails were made public, can you address their substance? Did the president ever spend hours at Epstein’s house with a victim?
Leavitt: These emails prove absolutely nothing other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong. And what President Trump has always said is that he was from Palm Beach and so was Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein was a member at Mar a Lago until President Trump kicked him out because Jeffrey Epstein was a pedophile and he was a creep.

Notice that Leavitt conspicuously didn’t answer the question regarding Trump spending hours with the victim at Epstein’s home. Instead, she made a blanket denial, bizarrely claiming that the emails proved that Trump did nothing wrong. Where exactly they said that is a mystery. She went on to repeat the lie that Trump kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago because he was a “pedophile and a creep.”

However there is no evidence of that being the reason for the fallout between them. Trump didn’t even say that. What Trump said was that he booted Epstein for “stealing” his girls from the Mar-a-Lago spa. Although other witnesses have testified that Trump booted Epstein because Epstein tried to cheat Trump out of a real estate deal. PBS published a detailed timeline of these events.

In a statement to the press, Leavitt accused the Democrats of having “selectively leaked emails [to] create a fake narrative to smear President Trump.” She elaborated that…

“These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments. And any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.”

If Leavitt is worried about Democrats making selective leaks, she could easily solve that problem by having her boss release everything. But for some reason, they aren’t doing that. Instead, she’s calling the whole thing a “hoax,” which is Trump’s description of any truth that reveals his corruption and dishonesty. For his part, Trump posted a comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, whining that…

“The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they’ll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they’ve done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects. Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap […] There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else.”

For the record, The Epstein matter is being brought up on a bipartisan basis. Several notable Republican Trump supporters are pressing the administration to release all of the Epstein files, including Marjorie Taylor Green, Thomas Massie, Nancy Mace, and Lauren Boebert. Trump’s comment above is his passive-aggressive threat to them to fall in line or suffer his wrath. Will it work? Stay tuned.

Why Won’t Republicans Release the Epstein Files That They Keep Insisting Will Exonerate Trump?

Posted by on October 21, 2025 at 2:15 pm. 1 Comments :

Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans in Congress have orchestrated and maintained a government shutdown for more than a month now. They have yet to articulate a coherent reason for doing so, other than their ludicrous lie that they are preventing Democrats from giving free healthcare to illegal immigrants. For the record, no Democrat has advocated or proposed that.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

In reality, what Democrats are fighting for is to prevent the GOP from destroying the Affordable Care Act – aka Obamacare – and allowing healthcare costs to skyrocket for American citizens. Meanwhile, the GOP is trying to cast the blame on Democrats, despite the fact that Republicans are in control of the House, the Senate, and the presidency. They really believe that the American people are stupid enough to buy their blatant propaganda.

SEE THIS: The MAGA Response to Trump’s ‘Poop on America’ Video is Worse than the Disgusting Video Itself

GOP House Speaker, MAGA Mike Johnson, has refused to open up the House of Representatives for business, leaning on the government shutdown that he and his colleagues created as an excuse. The two things have nothing to do with each other. There is no reason Congress cannot be in session during a shutdown. After all, they are all getting paid.

The obvious reason that Johnson is putting the House on pause is that he doesn’t want to swear in a newly elected Democratic member, Adelita Grijalva. She would make the 218th signature on a discharge petition that would require the House to vote on releasing the files of the late child sex trafficker, and friend of Donald Trump, Jeffrey Epstein. Of course, Johnson and his minions are denying that.

However, their denials don’t pass the smell test. The latest made up justification for avoiding doing the people’s business is to rewrite the history of the Democratic efforts to release the Epstein files. On Tuesday morning Johnson told reporters that…

“Democrats did not say one word about the Epstein files during the entire Biden presidency. They had all the files in the Biden DoJ. They didn’t say a word about it. Four years. Not a word. And suddenly now, they’ve somehow convinced themselves that the Epstein files will be damaging to President Trump and Republicans in some way that they’ve imagined, and so they feign outrage.”

Nothing that Johnson said there is remotely truthful. PolitiFact did an extensive review of the timeline of the Democratic efforts to reveal the truth about the Epstein affair. What they found was entirely contrary to Johnson’s fallacious rambling…

“Starting in 2019, but before Epstein’s arrest that year on federal sex trafficking charges, some Democratic lawmakers including Rep. Lois Frankel and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, both of south Florida, launched a years long quest to release Epstein records.

“The Democrats called for former U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta, who served as labor secretary during Trump’s first term, to testify about Epstein’s plea deal. They asked the Justice Department to investigate and release records. Democrats later pursued other strategies, including asking a Palm Beach, Florida, judge to release records.”

That’s a far cry from Johnson’s deliberately dishonest claim that “They didn’t say a word about it.” Not that Johnson or his Republican cohorts care about honesty. The notoriously dishonest Republican chair of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, also weighed in saying that…

“The Democrats don’t care about transparency or accountability in this matter. The evidence we’ve gathered does not implicate President Trump in any way. Public reporting, survivor testimony, and official documents show that Bill Clinton had far closer ties to Epstein.”

Comer: "The evidence we've gathered does not implicate President Trump in any way. Public reporting, survivor testimony, and official documents show that Bill Clinton had far closer ties to Epstein. We're working to bring former President Clinton in for a deposition, but Democrats aren't helping"

If Republicans actually have evidence that Trump is not implicated in the Epstein files, you really have to wonder why they are working so hard to avoid releasing them and exonerating their Dear Leader. In fact, if they actually had such evidence, they would have released the files months or years ago. And that’s even more true if they also have evidence that implicates former President Bill Clinton.

It’s hard to image that Republicans have any proof that Clinton “had far closer ties to Epstein” when there are years of photographic evidence of Trump and Epstein’s close friendship, but nothing similar with Clinton. Epstein was a frequent guest at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

The only documentation of Clinton’s association with Epstein was that he used his plane, mostly for legitimate business related to the charitable Clinton Foundation. There is zero evidence of anything else. And it was the Trump administration that put Epstein’s partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, up in a Club Fed prison after she agreed not to implicate Trump in her dirty business.

If Trump and Johnson and the rest of the MAGA Klan really want to put the Epstein matter behind them, then they should release the files and take whatever heat happens to come their way. But they are clearly too afraid to do that. And the American people can see their fear. They can also see that Democrats aren’t the least bit afraid of demanding a full accounting and release of all the files. What does that tell you?
