Trump Adviser Boris Epshteyn Survives Internal Knife Fight. Here’s The Tea…
The National Pulse ^ | November 28 2024 | The National Pulse

Posted on 11/28/2024 12:22:01 AM PST by mbrfl

An effort to remove Boris Epshteyn from his role as a top adviser to President-elect Donald J. Trump appears to have failed, with Trump expressing public support for Epshteyn, and the pair appearing together at Mar-a-Lago as recently as yesterday evening, The National Pulse can reveal.

Allegations were leaked to corporate media outlets CNN, CBS, and JustTheNews, falsely suggesting that Epshteyn had tried to solicit monthly consulting fees from potential administration nominees in exchange for advocacy within the administration. In truth, individuals are said to have approached Epshteyn offering cash, to which the lawyer replied, “You can’t buy me.”

So it appears this was a setup after Epshteyn refused a bribe.

Very interesting article.

Trump learned from his mistakes of trusting his team the last time to get rid of Bannon.

Creating infighting is a deep state tactic. It’s right out of Sun Tsu’s Art of War.

Anyone remember the story about Bud Dwyer. He was set up and caught in a bribery scandal. There was never any exchange of money but the messed up judicial system found him guilty anyway. Heres a good summary:

Wow. That’s quite a story. I don’t remember it. The article you linked to says the evidence against him was overwhelming but that he never stopped insisting he was innocent. Do we know now whether he was innocent?

This story actually broke about a week ago. Reports were that Musk and Epshteyn had gotten into an argument, with Musk accusing Boris selling access to Trump. Those stories were just unconfirmed rumors as far as I know. Now I’m just wondering what the full story was.

The story I read (and believe) was it was a lawfare setup by a political (or business) rival. Someone, during a recorded phone call offered Dwyer money for something...asked him if he would consider it. Bud said something like “yes, but I will have to think about it first and get back to you”. And that was all the law required to charge him with accepting a bribe. They destroyed him viciously and he was totally unprepared for the assault. He killed himself mainly so that his wife would get some small amount of death related insurance and also that would not bankrupt him and his wife with legal costs, taking their house etc. Really evil law stuff.

In another thread a few days ago it was reported that Scott Bessent had reported inappropriate actions of Boris to the Trump Transition Team.

I wonder: Did Bessent report Boris? If so, was he lying? If he was lying, can Trump trust Bessent? Was the person who reported it lying to compromise both Boris and Bessent?? Was there ever a dust-up between Boris and Elon?

Things are getting uglier every day.

Reads like something from the South China Post or CCP Daily.

"Trump Adviser Boris Epshteyn Survives Internal Knife Fight."

He does remind me of someone...

But I thought they killed him already?

Wasn't there also a fake news story several days ago about Boris and Elon arguing?

Looks like they are targeting Trump's inner circle with fake news.
