President Trump released a statement on Wednesday morning, labeling the Epstrin files the Democrats’ “new SCAM” and condemning his own supporters for talking about the Epstein case.
“My PAST supporters have bought into this “bullshit,” hook, line, and sinker,” Trump said. “Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore!”
“I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax,” Trump added.

So who are you going to support then?
And you do realize that Trump will not get another term?
This is his second and he’s no spring chicken.
Reasonable assessment.
This guy is probably a lefty but interesting analysis from Jan of 2024.
He mentions Ari Ben-Menashe in the context of Iran Contra. This is the guy who said Epstein was an Israeli Spy. He also claimed he was a handler for Robert Maxwell

Beyond the Surface: Jeffrey Epstein, Adnan Khashoggi, Robert Maxwell, and the Intricate Web of the Iran-Contra Affair
The Iran-Contra affair, unfolding in the 1980s, represents a pivotal moment in modern history, intertwining global politics, secret arms deals, and the shadowy world of espionage. The involvement of individuals like Jeffrey Epstein, Adnan Khashoggi, and Robert Maxwell in this context presents a narrative rich in intrigue and complexity. This in-depth exploration aims to untangle the multifaceted connections and covert activities that defined this era.
The Iran-Contra Affair: A Global Web of Covert Operations and Diplomacy
The Iran-Contra affair stands as one of the 20th century’s most significant political scandals, involving a complex network of covert operations and diplomatic negotiations that spanned continents. It went far beyond the simple sale of arms to Iran, entangling the United States in a clandestine operation that defied congressional mandates. The scandal involved selling arms to Iran, ostensibly to secure the release of hostages, while using the proceeds to fund the Contra rebels in Nicaragua. This operation was a geopolitical chess game, playing out against the backdrop of the Cold War, with the U.S. attempting to counter Soviet influence in Central America while also navigating the tumultuous political landscape of the Middle East. The affair brought to light the intricate workings of international relations, where covert operations often run parallel to official diplomacy. It underscored the lengths to which governments might go to achieve foreign policy objectives, often operating in legal and ethical gray areas. The Iran-Contra affair laid bare the complex realities of global politics, where secret deals, strategic alliances, and the circumvention of legal constraints are sometimes employed in the pursuit of national interests.
Epstein’s Early Career and Mysterious Associations Expanded
Jeffrey Epstein’s transition from a financier to a globally recognized controversial figure was punctuated by his remarkable ability to develop connections with the elite and powerful across various sectors. Starting his career at the prestigious financial firm Bear Stearns, Epstein quickly distinguished himself as a shrewd operator with a talent for navigating the complex world of high finance. His ascent within the firm was meteoric; he became known for his adept handling of intricate financial instruments and for providing astute financial advice to some of the wealthiest clients. However, it was not just his financial acumen that marked Epstein’s early career but also his capacity to forge powerful connections that transcended the financial industry. Epstein’s network reportedly included politicians, celebrities, and possibly even members of the intelligence community. These associations, particularly those forged during his tenure at Bear Stearns, set the stage for his later activities and raised questions about the true extent of his involvement in global financial and political spheres. Epstein’s ability to move in these influential circles, despite a relatively modest background, hinted at a deeper understanding and manipulation of the levers of power and influence.
Epstein and Khashoggi: Delving Deeper into Arms Dealing and Political Intrigue
The involvement of Adnan Khashoggi in the Iran-Contra affair positioned him at the nexus of a complex international arms trade network. His role as a facilitator in the illegal arms sales to Iran was instrumental in bypassing the international embargo and highlighted the interconnected nature of global arms trading. Epstein’s association with Khashoggi places him within this expansive network, suggesting potential involvement or at least knowledge of high-level political and possibly covert operations. Khashoggi’s activities during the Iran-Contra affair demonstrate the complexities of international arms dealing, characterized by secretive transactions, high-stakes political maneuvering, and the involvement of various state and non-state actors. This network was not just about the exchange of arms but also about the wielding of influence, the manipulation of geopolitical dynamics, and the pursuit of personal and national interests on the global stage.
The Speculations Around Epstein’s Intelligence Connections and the Iran-Contra Affair
Jeffrey Epstein’s possible connections to intelligence agencies have been the subject of much speculation and debate. The discovery of his Austrian passport, coupled with his known relationships with figures like Adnan Khashoggi, who played a pivotal role in the Iran-Contra affair, has fueled theories about his potential involvement in clandestine operations. Although there is no definitive evidence linking Epstein directly to these operations, the passport’s existence and Epstein’s international dealings contribute to the aura of mystery surrounding his life. This speculation is compounded by Epstein’s often opaque financial dealings and his known associations with influential figures across the globe. The conjecture about Epstein’s intelligence connections highlights the complex and often hidden networks within global politics and international relations, where individuals with access to wealth and power can play influential roles in shaping geopolitical landscapes.
Robert Maxwell: Unraveling the Layers of a Media Mogul’s Alleged Espionage Activities
The life of Robert Maxwell, characterized by his ascent in the media industry and alleged ties to intelligence operations, adds a layer of complexity to the narrative surrounding the Iran-Contra affair. Maxwell’s involvement in international affairs and his rumored connections to Mossad and other intelligence agencies paint a picture of a figure deeply enmeshed in the covert mechanisms of global politics. His role in international affairs was not just limited to his media empire but extended into more opaque activities, possibly involving espionage and intelligence gathering. The mysterious circumstances surrounding Maxwell’s death have only deepened the intrigue, leading to numerous theories about his actual role in international espionage and arms dealing. His connections to key political figures and his alleged involvement in intelligence activities suggest a man who navigated the shadowy world of global politics, where media influence, political power, and covert operations often intersect.
The Role of Mossad and Israeli Intelligence in the Iran-Contra Connections Expanded
The involvement of Mossad and other elements of Israeli intelligence in the Iran-Contra affair illuminates the complex and multi-layered nature of international espionage. Key figures like Rafi Eitan and Ari Ben-Menashe, with their connections to Israeli intelligence, played significant roles in the orchestration of the arms transactions that were central to the affair. Their involvement highlights the strategic importance of intelligence agencies in shaping geopolitical events and outcomes, often operating behind the scenes. Israeli intelligence’s participation in the Iran-Contra affair demonstrates the intricate interplay of intelligence gathering, covert operations, and diplomatic maneuvering in the pursuit of national interests. These operations often involve a delicate balance of ethics, legality, and strategic objectives, underscoring the hidden yet impactful role of intelligence agencies in global politics.
Epstein, Khashoggi, and Maxwell: Piecing Together the Narrative
The interconnected stories of Jeffrey Epstein, Adnan Khashoggi, and Robert Maxwell within the intricate web of the Iran-Contra affair present a period marked by a confluence of financial dealings, political influence, and covert operations. Their speculative connections to intelligence activities and arms dealing, coupled with a lack of conclusive evidence, weave a narrative filled with intrigue and unanswered questions. These stories, unfolding against the complex backdrop of 1980s global politics, reveal the opaque and intricate nature of international relations. Personal ambitions, state interests, and hidden agendas collide in a shadowy world where power and secrecy are the currency. The narrative of Epstein, Khashoggi, and Maxwell in the context of the Iran-Contra affair exemplifies the multifaceted and often covert dynamics that define international relations and geopolitics.
Conclusion: A Complex Saga of Power, Secrecy, and International Intrigue
The narrative encompassing Epstein, Khashoggi, and Maxwell in relation to the Iran-Contra affair is a testament to the complex and often hidden dynamics of international relations in the late 20th century. Their stories represent a confluence of espionage, global politics, and clandestine operations, painting a picture of a world where the lines between legitimate statecraft, intelligence operations, and criminal activities are blurred. The ongoing investigations and emerging revelations continue to add layers to this intricate story, suggesting that the full scope and nature of these individuals’ involvement in historical events like the Iran-Contra affair may yet be uncovered, potentially shedding new light on one of the most enigmatic chapters of modern history.
More like The Deep State threatened him and his family. They already tried to kill him once (that the public knows about) and came within fractions of an inch in succeeding.
"Past Supporters" would be duress words.

Ron couldnt care less about Epstein. He's just using this to damage Trump and splinter his base.
And if we lose the house or Trump is abandoned by everyone , those investigations you , rightly, desire will never happen.
If it was wyden making those assertions of wrong doing I wouldn't believe it , solely cuz I did live in Oregon and have known what a complete reprobate perv promoting pioneer in Oregon he has decades of experience being.
But as you pointed out those things you want investigated are documented by others, and in that case, I understand and appreciate your desire and find that statement I quoted up top admirable , even if I feel it is ill timed and detrimental in the end for your goal. Thank you for your reply btw.
That's what they want you to believe.
uh huh, should the Senate Finance Committee have access to the Epstein files or is it okay with you for Bondi to refuse to be transparent. It is a simple question.
Likely because he has reason to be. They're threatening him.
A fine demonstration of the evils of class envy. The whole Epstein thing may be nothing more than a grifter pervert and his sidekick doing their thing, with some famous people getting dragged in for the ride.
People with class envy and hate want to see larger conspiracies and evil cabals - that ‘get away with it because of their wealth and influence’.
Once that envy and hate gets stoked, there’s no putting the genie back in the bottle - because like so many conspiracy theories, there’s no way to prove a negative, especially when “powerful forces that control everything”.
People need to calm down and let the process work - it’s distracting from other important things.
But that won’t mean anything to maddened villagers that have their pitchforks and torches and want to lynch some famous enemies.
I guess he could call it a hoax. In any case, it is a manufactured controversy over an inconsequential issue. I understand his frustration. He thought his supporters had better sense than to get bogged down in this.
Earlier they were bogged down with JFK....reams were released....didn't do a damn thing to change anything.
He started the investigation under Biden because of the Dechert report. June 2022. Tax evasion by Super Wealthy under a broader review.
When Trump was asked about if HIS name being on the list. he didn’t say no. He didn’t get mad. He obfuscated.
Don’t Make Promises (You Can’t Keep) Tim Hardin/Gary Puckett & The Union Gap
It seems the songs we’re singing
Are all about tomorrow
Tunes of promises you can’t keep
Every moment bringing
A love I can only borrow
You’re telling me lies in your sleep
Do you think I’m not aware
Of what you’re saying
Or why you’re saying it?
Is it hard to keep me where
You want me staying?
Don’t go on betraying
Don’t make promises you can’t keep (Don’t make promises you can’t keep)
We had a chance to find it
Our time was now or never
You promised me things that I need
But then all the things behind it
Took away the chance forever
You’re telling me lies in your sleep
Do you think I’m not aware
Of what you are saying
Or why you’re saying it?
Is it hard to keep me where
You want me staying
Don’t go on betraying it
Don’t, no, no
Don’t make promises you can’t keep (Don’t make promises you can’t keep)
Don’t make promises you can’t keep (Don’t make promises you can’t keep)
Hey, no, don’t make promises you can’t keep (Don’t make promises you can’t keep)
Don’t you ever make those promises you can’t keep (Don’t make promises you can’t keep)
No, no, don’t make promises
If, then, why? I ask as a serious question.
If there is nothing to all this Epstein fracas and it it just BS contrived by the democrats as the administration is now saying or the list that Dershowitz knew the names on last week but does not exist now, why is Maxwell in jail and why was Epstein in jail in the first place?
Why does it matter in the midst of all the rest of things, good and bad? Character and principles. Just because someone is doing great things does not mean we should overlook others that are not so good. If we accept the success without question what does that make us?
The way Team Trump are handling this one is turning sour. To willfully accept what is being claimed you have to suspend misbelief.
Trump is putting his presidency on the line and our future with it.
If he were hiding himself it would already be known. This list is known by some and some of those would poison the well for Trump with it if they could. Trump is protecting or blackmailing someone with this information.
I doubt this is a hoax gone sour. Why is Maxwell in jail and why was Epstein in jail?
Kabuki Theater. He’s playing a part.
“Bannon, Tucker, and the gang are out for blood ever since the Israel 12 day war.
Are you saying this mess is their fault?
Trump wants us to abandon our “Conspiracy Theory “ that Epstein was blackmailing politicians and billionaires and accept his “Conspiracy Theory “ that is was all a well crafted Conspiracy by the deep state to do something….. conspiratorial. .
You are correct, Trump does a whole lot that is really great he also says a lot that is totally not necessary.
One aw shit wipes out ten thousand attaboys. He doesn’t understand this at all.
“I’ve also heard there’s names on the lists of people who are innocent of wrongdoing but have had business relationships with Epstein and it would destroy or implicate them and besmirch their names forever.”
I just can’t imagine anyone having legitimate business dealings with Epstein considering his sketchy and very weak background. Epstein has always been a questionable character and his rise from math tutor to billionaire is at the very least improbable if not impossible without some serious “help”.
