Rep Ted Lieu has ignited a fresh political storm after alleging that Donald Trump is repeatedly named in the unredacted Jeffrey Epstein files released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act in January 2026. Lieu claimed that members of Congress who reviewed the fuller set of documents encountered disturbing allegations tied to the former president. His remarks, delivered during a forceful exchange on Capitol Hill, have triggered sharp partisan reactions and renewed scrutiny of the Epstein records. According to Lieu, the unredacted files viewed by a select group of lawmakers mention Trump “thousands and thousands of times”. He further asserted that...

'Donald Trump told us that even though he had dinner with these people in New York City and West Palm Beach, that he would be transparent, but he's not,' Massie said. 'He's still in with the Epstein class. This is the Epstein administration.' 'There are billionaires that are friends with these people, and that's what I'm up against in D.C.,' Massie said.

A ghost story falls in the category of fantasy. And former ABC reporter Tara Palmeri's Halloween-in-February hot take in Vanity Fair on Thursday, "Epstein’s Ghost Is Calling All the Shots in Trump’s White House," certainly falls within the realm of fantasy. She updates Banquo's ghost to the 21st century and engages in the fantasy that Epstein's ghost is somehow haunting Trump's every move.Since no incriminating facts in the Epstein files could be found about Trump, Palmeri performs the pretense of somehow channeling the president's soul and concluding that his every waking (and sleeping) moment is being haunted by Epstein's ghost....

Representative Lauren Boebert has joined several lawmakers in expressing outrage over what she was able to view in unredacted versions of the Department of Justice’s documents on the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “Terrifying language in the Epstein Files I viewed yesterday,” the Colorado Republican posted to X on Wednesday. “Emails about torture. Frequent talk of ‘consumption’? A restaurant called ‘The Cannibal.’”

WASHINGTON (AP) — A top Justice Department official played down the possibility of additional criminal charges arising from the Jeffrey Epstein files, saying Sunday that the existence of “horrible photographs” and troubling email correspondence does not “allow us necessarily to prosecute somebody.”Department officials said over the summer that a review of Epstein-related records did not establish a basis for new criminal investigations.That position remains unchanged, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said, even as a massive document dump since Friday has focused fresh attention on Epstein’s links to powerful individuals around the world and revived questions about what, if any, knowledge...

The Justice Department’s latest release of the Epstein files offers fresh insights into how former President Bill Clinton’s staff communicated with Jeffrey Epstein and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, including sometimes-lewd email exchanges. The document dump comes just days before an expected House contempt vote against the Clintons after they rebuffed a subpoena to testify in a bipartisan probe into Epstein. The Republican-led House is expected to vote this week to hold both Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress for failing to testify. House Oversight Republicans and even some Democrats voted in committee last month to hold the...

Very long read, just posting subtitles CNN reporters have been going through the documents, and you can read highlights below: Trump’s DOJ compiled list in 2025 of tips that made allegations against Trump Diagram shows parts of Epstein’s inner circle but redacts some close associates Draft indictment from 2000s included alleged co-conspirators Drafted, unsigned indictment included details of alleged abuse of minors, a threat and three co-conspirators Epstein victim told FBI Maxwell once ‘presented’ her to Trump and made clear she was ‘available’ Files include details of 1994 rape allegation against Trump from Jane Doe who dropped previous lawsuits ‘I...

"Trump, like Clinton, has not been implicated of wrongdoing, and the president has said he had a falling out with Epstein years ago."And with that brief observation by Politico on Friday by Hailey Fuchs in "DOJ announces full release of Epstein files," all their absurdly frenetic efforts last year to somehow implicate President Donald Trump via the Jeffrey Epstein files look like they came up empty. Millions of the Epstein files were released and as Politico sadly conceded, Trump was not implicated of wrongdoing (although for Clinton that might not be the case due to the Clintons refusing to testify...

Bombshell revelation in the Epstein files shows Bill Gates was asking Jeffrey Epstein for "antibiotics" to give his wife, Melinda — because he contracted an STD from "Russian girls" The emails also mention a "description of [Gates'] p*nis" ABSOLUTELY SICK! No WONDER the Dems got quiet about the files. Their heroes are all over them!

@ShawnRyan762 “Pam Bondi can be personally fined up to $10,000 every day that these documents aren’t released, and she could be put in jail for breaking the law. They keep releasing fluff instead of the actual files, and they’re protecting people. This is the one issue that is hurting them with their own base, and people are screaming, ‘Release these damn files.’ If there’s evidence being destroyed, that’s a serious crime, and career prosecutors would be risking everything.”

Oh wait the Ford workers did not get the "No Kings" memo from the Democrats.

A worker at the Ford factory in Michigan was suspended but said he had 'no regrets' after he accused Donald Trump of being a 'pedophile protector' during a visit to Tuesday. TJ Sabula, a 40-year-old line worker at the factory, was given the penalty after Trump cursed him out and gave him the middle finger while touring the factory, according to The Washington Post. 'As far as calling him out, definitely no regrets whatsoever,' Sabula told the outlet. 'I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity....

Joe Rogan Reacts to Senator Kennedy Dropping the Jeffrey Epstein Bomb #shorts

Trump demands DOJ release all the names related to the Epstein investigation as he complains of a ‘witch hunt’ and Democrat ‘hoax’ (Can only be linked to, per FR rules.)

"So you're telling me there's a chance."We laughed when the "Dumb and Dumber" character uttered that but that attitude was reflected in real life by a New York magazine writer which makes it even funnier. Yes, the extreme Hopium expressed by that magazine's Intelligencer section senior editor, Margaret Hartmann, over the incredibly slight possibility that Jeffrey Epstein's postcard letter to imprisoned serial sex offender Larry Nassar might be valid is made hilarious by its sheer desperation despite the much less than million to one chance that it could be true. You can see Hartmann on Tuesday going full "Dumb and...

VIDEOThe release of the FAKE Epstein letter supposedly sent to imprisoned serial sex offender Larry Nassar was like tossing red meat into a small pond of starving liberal piranhas. They latched onto that FAKE letter and devoured it without the least bit of contemplation about its validity as you can see in this video. Unsurprisingly the supposed Epstein letter has been declared by the DOJ to have been a FAKE. It should have been obvious because there is no way that the DOJ under the Sleepy Joe Regime did not already go through the Epstein files with a fine tooth...

A salacious letter purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein that directly referenced President Trump is fake, the Justice Department said Tuesday. “The FBI has confirmed that this alleged letter from Jeffrey Epstein to Larry Nassar is FAKE,” the DOJ wrote on X hours after it pledged it was “looking into the validity of this alleged letter.” Epstein purportedly wrote the letter to fellow jailed sex offender Larry Nassar — the disgraced USA Gymnastics doctor who is serving hundreds of years of prison for abusing girls under his care.

Tech-savvy sleuths have discovered a way to uncensor the heavily redacted files on notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, as the Department of Justice continues to release the documents. Some portions of the documents, initially blacked out in Adobe Acrobat by the federal agency, pop up when copied and pasted into Google Docs or Microsoft programs like Word, The Post confirmed during a test run. The Post, however, cannot confirm the veracity of the redactions.

Department says image was flagged by prosecutors before determining it posed no risk to survivors of late sex offenderThe US justice department said on Sunday it had restored an image it had removed a day earlier from the public release of investigative files related to Jeffrey Epstein after concluding that the photograph, which included within it a photo of Donald Trump, posed no risk of public exposure to victims of the late convicted sex offender.The justice department said the image had been flagged by federal prosecutors in New York for potentially exposing victims of Epstein. Its unexplained removal on Saturday...

SummaryAnkush Khardori, a POLITICO Magazine senior writer and former federal prosecutor, provides guidance on navigating the Justice Department's release of Epstein investigation files, mandated by a law signed by President Trump with a Friday deadline. The release involves over 300 gigabytes of data, including electronic devices, documents, logs, financial records, FBI interview summaries (302s), and internal communications, excluding child pornography material. Full compliance may take weeks due to volume. Khardori warns the release is unlikely to end Epstein conspiracy theories. Five rules:Don’t Read the Files Directly: Avoid drawing conclusions from isolated items; rely on reputable journalists for context, as raw...
