Stansbury melts down on TMZ with bonkers Trump–Epstein theory (NM District 1 US Representative)

In a bizarre and baseless outburst, New Mexico Democrat Rep. Melanie Stansbury is accusing the White House of “covering up” President Donald Trump’s supposed ties to Jeffrey Epstein — even though no credible evidence has ever linked Trump to Epstein’s criminal acts, and years of investigations under Democrat-led agencies have produced nothing to the contrary.

Appearing on TMZ Live on Wednesday, Stansbury claimed a newly released batch of Epstein-related emails proved “the White House is trying to cover up Donald Trump’s involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.” She pointed to one message, allegedly sent to Ghislaine Maxwell, ...

From that vague and decades-old email, Stansbury jumped to wild conclusions — speculating about “police involvement” and accusing the Trump administration of hiding evidence. She went so far as to allege officials are “threatening Republicans to remove their signatures” from a discharge petition demanding full release of Epstein-related materials.

Stansbury’s rant quickly drew ridicule from journalists and commentators across the spectrum. Newsmax host Rob Schmitt blasted her conspiracy-laden tirade on X, writing:

“The usual clowns with more bulls**t. The name of the victim Trump spent ‘hours with’ was redacted by Dems. This was done intentionally. It’s Virginia Giuffre, her identity was unmasked by Republicans. Why did Dems conceal her ID??? Because Giuffre praised Trump in her book as having done nothing wrong. These people are animals.”

Despite that history, Stansbury — who has a reputation for far-left activism — continues to spin the theory that Trump somehow escaped accountability through an elaborate White House “cover-up.”

The facts remain clear: Trump cut ties with Epstein nearly two decades ago, cooperated with investigators, and has never been accused ... with any wrongdoing related to Epstein. Stansbury’s comments are nothing more than the latest chapter in the left’s endless obsession with manufacturing scandals where none exist.

BTW, NM's three Dem US Reps voted last night to keep the government closed. To them it's more important to keep the party line than to support the state's needy residents.

Stansbury? That ass clown was literally a Ghislane Maxwell employee! Right up until Maxwell was arrested.

Things must be pretty bad at TMZ, what they won’t do for views. Hope the speculation brings lawsuit, and shuts the smut show down. How Bored are these people.

There is a massive amount of junk floating around on Ticktock and other social media.

With that sort of back wind, you have to seize the opportunity.

Where is our MSM and social media lecturing us about the need to censor mis and dis information because that’s their responsibility to do! I’m sure Facebook will shut down those folks jumping on this, like they did Trump in 2016, right? LOL

This is just a slime ball politician riding on top of a huge brown wave of BS.

Maxwell and Stansbury. Stansbury has a shady past, no kids, and the Epstein Zorro teenage girl breeding ranch is her congressional district now.

CALLED IT! And all the docs haven’t been released yet. When they DO get released, and there’s no daming info there against Trump, THIS will be the scream.

“THEY EDITED IT ALL AND DELETED ALL THE TRUMP STUFF!”

AWFL !

Melanie Stansbury was on CNN the other night. She made the CNN interviewer look rational and objective by comparison. She is turning out to be a really repulsive person.

That ass clown was literally a Ghislane Maxwell employee!
And yet no one knows that little fact! Hmmm 🤔

[griswold3]

According to her official disclosure in 2021, Stansbury listed the TerraMar Project as a former employer — a nonprofit that was created and fronted by Maxwell under the guise of ocean conservation.

Jeffrey Epstein said in several emails that the former president never visited his estate in the Virgin Islands.

Bad news for the Get Trump crowd.

It doesn't matter what it is true or not true - it is the narrative. Facts are not a relevant consideration.

Doesn't matter - the lie already travelled around the world and 99% won't hear the truth. That was the point.
