The House will not vote on a resolution calling for the release of some documents related to Jeffrey Epstein before the August recess, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) announced on Monday, despite growing GOP outcry over the Trump administration’s handling of the case. The news came after the House Rules Committee advanced the measure last week, and as the lower chamber prepares to break for the weeks-long August recess on Thursday. Asked if the House will vote on the resolution before leaving Washington, Johnson told reporters: “No.” The Speaker said he wants to leave time for the administration to act on...

Former Harvard law professor and veteran trial attorney Alan Dershowitz — who represented notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in his 2008 criminal case — said during a recent appearance on Fox News that at least two prominent Democrats are named in files relating to the case. While speaking with host Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday,” Dershowitz stated that while the Epstein “client list” does not exist in the way it has been built up in some corners of the internet, there are other ways to reveal the names of individuals who were potentially involved in Epstein’s crimes. ““Are [the names]...

A Florida man was arrested last week for allegedly threatening on X to kill "EVERY ONE" on what he believed was the Jeffrey Epstein client list, charging documents unsealed Monday show. Terrell Bailey-Corsey allegedly posted the threats on X last Tuesday, seemingly reacting to a response from X's AI agent Grok that disputed any such client list exists, as the FBI and Justice Department recently confirmed. "Well @grok you're wrong. Everyone involved if I see them in real life I will KILL. On sight," Bailey-Corsey allegedly said. "I will KILL EVERYONE ON THE LIST. ON SIGHT. AND THEY ABSOLUTELY DESERVE...

The Trump administration released a huge batch of previously classified documents on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination on Monday as Americans clamor for information about Jeffrey Epstein. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was publishing 230,000 pages worth of documents relating to the civil rights leader's April 1968 assassination. The release was in accordance with Donald Trump's executive order earlier this year mandating the release of files on former President John F. Kennedy, former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and MLK. The release comes as the Trump administration...

The Wall Street Journal is facing renewed scrutiny after publishing a story falsely linking President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein through a letter the paper claimed was “lewd” and allegedly sent for Epstein’s 50th birthday. ... The report has been widely denounced as part of a continued pattern of politically motivated attacks, with deeper ties now surfacing between the authors of the story and the figures behind the discredited Russia collusion narrative.. ...

If you listened to the rest of the media — both mainstream and social media — you would think Donald Trump was on the skids, that MAGA was at last turning on the president over the so-called Epstein Files. But nothing could be further from the truth, according to polling the president crowed about over the weekend and, also, according to history. Every single time his enemies count him out, Trump roars back with a vengeance. The latest effort last week to try to smear him as a sexual deviant and damage his marriage by tying him to child sex...

Leading Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., says President Donald Trump should release the Epstein files, but is silent on why former President Joe Biden did not anytime in his four years in the Oval Office. Democrats have seized on the issue since the case became a political controversy for the Trump administration. However, despite their current calls for transparency on the case, the Biden Justice Department also failed to release additional documents on Epstein. Asked by Fox News Digital whether she thought the Trump administration should release the Epstein files, former House Speaker Pelosi responded, "Absolutely." Fox News Digital then...

Conservative commentator Laura Loomer voiced her displeasure with the "weaponized narrative" she claims is surrounding the relationship of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, blaming the media and Democrats, as well as right-wing "grifters" like Tucker Carlson, who she said are using the ongoing story for their own enrichment. -snip- "Carlson said he hates Trump, and the only reason why he pretends to like Trump is because he's now a defendant and the majority of his audience is people who like Trump—even though he's rapidly pushing those people away because he's become Jew obsessed and he's being bankrolled by Muslims," she...

President Trump on Sunday publicly demanded that the Washington Commanders change the team name back to the Redskins— labeling them derisively the “Washington Whatever’s.” He also said the Cleveland Guardians should revert to being the Indians. Both teams had rebranded several years ago due to concerns that their Native American-inspired names were offensive, but Trump argued that the pendulum has since swung back against political correctness. “The Washington ‘Whatever’s’ should IMMEDIATELY change their name back to the Washington Redskins Football Team. There is a big clamoring for this,” Trump declared, unprompted on Truth Social Sunday. “Likewise, the Cleveland Indians, one...

🚨NEW: CNN's Michael Smerconish *CASTS DOUBT* on WSJ Trump-Epstein letter🚨 "It's hard to believe that the president would have written the imaginary conversation between himself and Epstein 22 years ago. I mean, listen to some of the back and forth." "That doesn't sound like something Donald Trump would write." @DailyCaller

SummaryTrump denies WSJ report on Epstein birthday letter U.S. wants Epstein grand jury transcripts made public Trump supporters demand more Epstein documents Dow Jones defends accuracy of its reporting WASHINGTON/NEW YORK, July 18 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump sued the Wall Street Journal and its owners including Rupert Murdoch for at least $10 billion on Friday, over the newspaper's report that his name was on a 2003 birthday greeting for Jeffrey Epstein that included a sexually suggestive drawing and a reference to secrets they shared. The lawsuit filed in Miami federal court names Murdoch, Dow Jones, News Corp (NWSA.O)...

This week, The Wall Street Journal reported that Mr. Trump gave Mr. Epstein a note for his 50th birthday in 2003 that included a sketch of a naked woman and a cryptic reference to a “secret” the two men shared.In the swirl of money and sun-tanned women that was their Palm Beach-and-Manhattan set, Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein spent nearly 15 years mingling side-by-side as public friends. There were lavish dinners with boldface names at Mr. Epstein’s mansion on the Upper East Side and raucous parties with cheerleaders and models at Mr. Trump’s private club and residence at Mar-a-Lago....

The DOJ asked a court to make public some records stemming from Jeffrey Epstein's prosecution Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who submitted the requests, did not elaborate on what “other” information they would shield.The Justice Department’s move came amid pressure not just from the left, but from some Republicans who in recent days have pushed for the release of the records. Reps. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) joined Democrats, signing on as co-sponsors to legislation to force a vote on releasing the records.It came after a Wall Street Journal...

I was his lawyer. I know things that court orders won’t allow me to disclose.I was Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyer. I know the facts, some of which I can’t disclose because it is privileged or subject to court-imposed sealing orders. But what I can disclose makes several important things clear: Epstein never created a “client list.” The FBI interviewed alleged victims who named several “clients.” These names have been redacted. They should be disclosed but the courts have ordered them sealed. I know who they are. They don’t include any current officeholders. We don’t know whether the accusations are true. The...

10 Shocking Stories the Media Buried Today #10 - Democrat reveals Jeffrey Epstein received $1.1 BILLION in wire transfers from a SINGLE bank account. It’s not often you see a Democrat laser-focused on Epstein. Sen. Ron Wyden dropped the unexpected bomb. He revealed: “4,725 wire transfers adding up to nearly $1.1 billion flowing in and out of just one of Mr. Epstein’s bank accounts. If you ask me, that is more than 4,000 potential lines of investigation right there. Hundreds of millions more flowed through other accounts.” Let that sink in. One account, over a billion dollars. And no one...

“It would make [Epstein] a story with which we have to be persistent and steady in our demands; but also cautious, and methodical, and discerning.” —Naomi Wolf. Do you detect the signs of Rope-a-Dope in Mr. Trump’s recent blasts against the Epstein mess? It must be obvious that anything he says will be violently opposed by his Democratic Party enemies. So, now he’s got them slavering for release of the Epstein files, whatever they are, or rather, whatever’s left after former FBI Director Christopher Wray & Co. curated them, shall we say. (They had many years to get it done.)...

President Trump’s claim that some of the Epstein files are ‘made up’ by Democrats and the FBI makes a lot more sense now. When President Trump first started ranting, really out of nowhere, about the so-called “Epstein files” being “made up” by his Democrat predecessors, as well as former F.B.I. Director James Comey, it was bizarre and suspiciously defensive. It’s now a lot less weird and a lot less suspicious. The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday on a “leather-bound book” containing, among other things, a doodle of a naked woman’s body framing an odd “typewritten” note, both supposedly penned by...

Trump’s base doesn’t want excuses—they want Epstein’s client list and the truth about TWA 800, not another cover-up dressed in national security. Recent media reports claimed that FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino was livid over a memo issued by the Justice Department last week stating that there was no Jeffrey Epstein “client list” and no further records from the Epstein file would be released. Nothing to see here. Move on. Bongino was reportedly threatening to resign if Attorney General Pam Bondi didn’t resign over her seeming incompetence. If accurate, I think Bongino was right to take a hard line on...

There's nothing to see here, folks. At least that's what Stephen King is saying when it comes to the existence of Jeffrey Epstein's rumored client list. The prolific author sparked backlash from his followers on X (formerly Twitter) this week after sharing a condescending post about convicted sex offender Epstein. 'The Epstein client list is real. So is the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus,' he posted on Tuesday. Later that day, the 77-year-old followed it up with, 'Boy, I hit a nerve with that Epstein post. The 'list' is like UFOs: Everyone knows someone who's seen one.' The second post...
