NEW YORK, NY — In what many were calling the greatest political scandal in American history, the Wall Street Journal confirmed that Donald Trump's name does, in fact, appear in the article about the Epstein File that was recently written by the Wall Street Journal.
"This is damning, earth-shattering stuff," said WSJ journalist Cliff Buttly, who wrote the article. "As I scanned the article I recently wrote about Epstein, I found Trump's name appeared in there 23 times. I'm not sure how Trump can manage to walk away from this bombshell unscathed."
At this time, sources were unclear on the specific connection between Trump and Epstein, or why his name was mentioned in the Wall Street Journal article so many times, but all agreed that the story was too troubling to ignore.
"It's right there, plain as day," said one WSJ reader who asked to remain anonymous. "In the first paragraph of this article, it says 'TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP I HATE TRUMP.' I'm not sure what that means or why it's relevant to the rest of this article about Epstein, but it is certainly a disturbing bit of new information."
Thousands of concerned citizens called for a full investigation based on the shockingly numerous instances of Trump's name in the WSJ article about Epstein, and demanded that Trump provide an explanation.
At publishing time, Democrats had also called for an investigation into Trump's suspicious appearance in the nightmares they had last night.

Yes, as a complainant and not as a suspect.
Everyone calm down.
The article is from Babylon Bee.
Its a joke - but in fact, its EXACTLY how the Steele Dossier worked.
It was leaked to a few sources, who started a whispering campaign, which then fed newspaper articles, and then more whispering.
Then the FBI, who organized the whole thing at the start, then went to FISA Courts and said “whoa - this is serious! we need to investigate this!”
I remember Paul Ryan, RINO scumbag leading the GOP and Congress at the time, engaging in this process, and talking about how all these “rumors” needed to be investigated by DOJ/FBI
Count on them being very careful...
Democrats call it the Wrap-Up Smear "Tactic."

Phew....The BEE almost stung me.
Thanks!
I nearly missed it!
This is the biggest non story there is.. of course Trump name appears in any files about Epstein... guarantee Bill Clinton’s and Bill Gates does too.. along with loads of other wealthy and powerful people.
Unless there is evidence that in those files Trump has done something wrong, this is not news... But, reality and the news have NOTHING to do with each other.
Until someone reports that whats in the files about Trump is damaging, all these stories are just nonsense.. Everyone knows they knew each other.. Hell he was at his wedding.. this isn’t news, its just propaganda..
Not sure you realized it was satire.
Probably a couple of months ago I decided I hate the Babylon Bee.
Not funny.
Real life is grimly amusing enough without it.
Isn't he related to CNN commentator Jack Acidly?
When I saw the title the first thing I did was check the source because I assumed it would be Babylon bee. But it said it was x.com. so I just assumed it was a really poorly written.
So I scan through the comments to see if I would get more enlightenment and your post gave me the enlightenment I was looking for. 👍🤣
The BB nails it, yet again!
