Very sad news for those of you who have become connoisseurs of the hilarious inadvertent comedy provided by Politico's over-the-top obsession with the Jeffrey Epstein files the past few months. Those good times might soon be gone.No more laughs provided by a panicked Politico publishing FIVE stories last July 18 solely on the topic of the Wall Street Journal possibly tossing President Donald Trump a "lifeline" in the form of a probable fake news story about a birthday letter supposedly sent by Trump to Epstein. Yes, the fun has continued for months culminating with Wednesday's Politico announcement of a possible...

ABC News might soon find itself staring down another expensive defamation lawsuit from President Trump, and honestly, it wouldn't come as a shock. On a recent episode of The View, Joy Behar confidently claimed that it was "obvious" Trump was a pedophile connected with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, implicating him in Epstein’s crimes. This wild accusation came without a shred of evidence tying Trump to Epstein’s criminal activities. In fact, Trump is arguably one of the few prominent figures who did the right thing and severed ties with Epstein years ago, unlike many Democrats who have since been ensnared...

🍿CBS BOMBSHELL: Epstein Accuser’s Ghostwriter Spills The Goods – Virginia Giuffre Called Donald Trump Her HERO, Not a Villain. Ghostwriter Amy Wallace, who co-wrote Virginia Giuffre's posthumous memoir "Nobody's Girl," says Giuffre expressed strong support for Donald Trump during their talks. Giuffre believed Trump would release the Epstein files and expose hidden truths. Wallace says Giuffre met Trump several times while working at Mar-a-Lago but admitted he was NOT involved in Epstein's trafficking network. @TheDemocrats desperate scramble to smear President Trump as Epstein’s pervy pal is crashing harder than a Clinton apology tour. Giuffre’s own words, via her ghostwriter Amy...

O’Donnell seems to spend much of her days in a constant rave about Trump, Republicans, and the demise of the United States from her new home in Ireland. That is fine and an exercise of free speech. However, it may have crossed the line into defamation in her latest posting. O’Donnell stated:“Did you think it a million years that they would reelect a man who orchestrated an insurrection against the government? They would reelect that guy with all the charges of sex abuse? — the adjudicated rapist…And then I just saw this thing today about all the cases he’s settled...

Onetime popular entertainer Rosie O’Donnell has become a one-person attack machine against President Donald Trump these days. She “seems to spend much of her days in a constant rave about Trump, Republicans, and the demise of the United States from her new home in Ireland. That is fine and an exercise of free speech. However, it may have crossed the line into defamation in her latest posting,” explained constitutional expert Jonathan Turley in a commentary. In fact, she said, “Did you think it a million years that they would reelect a man who orchestrated an insurrection against the government? They...

Trump is also frustrated because he thinks Democrats outmaneuvered the GOP on the debate. The fast-track movement comes after months of stalling by Republican leaders and immense pressure from the White House to keep a vote from happening.But Trump, over the last week, realized his vice-like grip over the GOP was not enough to forestall the vote and relented to the “inevitable reality,” the official said. The president changed course Sunday after speaking with many Republicans and concluding dozens of House members planned to cross him.“The strategy now is give Republicans a perceived win,” the official said. “So they can...

Is there a good personal injury lawyer in the house? Because anyone listening to Maria Cardona this morning might have suffered a bad case of whiplash. In a neck-straining nanosecond on CNN This Morning, Cardona, a Democrat strategist who doubles as a CNN commentator, went from piously proclaiming that the Epstein matter "should be about the survivors, this shouldn't be political," and then straight to trying to pin all the blame on the Republicans. After saying that "the problem has become political not because of Democrats," Cardona proceeded to parrot the Democrat talking point that President Trump could have already...

The Senate approved a House-passed bill that would require the Justice Department to release files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, effectively sending it to President Trump's desk as soon as it's formally transmitted from the House to the Senate.

An old report has brought back a question Donald Trump’s team hoped would disappear: did the FBI work through the night to remove his name from the Jeffrey Epstein files before saying there was nothing left to release? The timing is important as Trump has suddenly reversed his stance on making the documents public. Sources familiar with the process told Bloomberg, “We know from news reports that Trump’s name was in the Epstein files. But what hasn’t been reported is that an FBI FOIA team redacted Trump’s name and the names of other prominent public figures from the documents.” The...

Official House results show the bill passed with overwhelming support, as 427 members voted in favour and only one Republican, Clay Higgins of Louisiana, opposed.

Emails revealed that Summers sought advice from Epstein on romantically pursuing a woman he referred to as his mentee.Summers’ comment comes after a senior Trump administration official and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) each called on institutions to sever ties with Summers.The statement leaves question marks hanging over the fate of several positions Summers occupies, which include a board seat at OpenAI, a tenured position at Harvard, an unpaid nonresident fellow position at the liberal Center for American Progress think tank and a paid contributor role at Bloomberg News. A Summers spokesperson declined to answer a direct question about those roles.Earlier...

MASSIE on the Epstein files: "The Speaker, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, the President, and the Vice President could have saved us all this time and embarrassment, frankly, for our own party if they'd just done the right thing four months ago."

President Donald Trump's sudden pivot on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files was not an impulsive gamble but a tactical move to end a months-long drama that has consumed the White House and Congress. In a sudden shift, Trump said Sunday night that 'House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files.' But White House insiders have told the Daily Mail that the move by Trump wasn't a U-turn, but a calculated move to expose senior Democrats and his critics who had links to Epstein. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Monday: 'We have nothing to do with Epstein....

Epstein slop has now apparently reached the outermost limits of absurdity with Monday's New Yorker entirely incapable finding anything actually incriminating about President Donald Trump in the latest release of the Jeffrey Epstein documents. So what to do? What to do? Well, New Yorker editor Jessica Winter seems to have drawn the short stick to "earn" this assignment and completely embarrassed herself with a theory about "negative space" in "The Darkest Thread in the Epstein E-mails."The subtitle reflects the fact that Winter found absolutely no there there since the worst allegation tossed Trump's way is something called "negative space": Donald...

Just when you thought Trump would run and hide from all this Epstein stuff (see Epstein's 2018 email about Trump and Bubba), he's going all-in on releasing the files. But first, check out this 2015 video of Trump talking about Epstein and Prince Andrew: VIDEO AT LINK................... BREAKING - A 2015 clip of Presidential Candidate Donald Trump bringing up Epstein Island before anyone knew who Epstein was is resurfacing. “That island was a cesspool. Just ask Prince Andrew. He’ll tell you about it.” "A guilty man doesn't mention something he wants to hide." Now, in 2025, the president is calling...

President Donald Trump’s call for House Republicans to support releasing Jeffrey Epstein-related documents was a stunning capitulation after a months-long campaign to block the vote. It was also a specific defeat for Trump at the hands of a despised GOP opponent: Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky. “He got tired of me winning,” Massie said of Trump’s U-turn in an interview Monday morning. Insisting “I DON’T CARE!” in a late-night Truth Social post, Trump was bowing to the inevitable — a broad House Republican mutiny on a vote that was only scheduled because Massie forced it. It was the result of...

Republican Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky went against the most powerful leaders of his party to push forward with a vote to release more Jeffrey Epstein investigation files. That vote is expected to happen this week. House Speaker Mike Johnson, who for months has sought to avoid the politically charged issue, only agreed to schedule the vote after Massie helped lead a bipartisan coalition of House members to force his hand. The vote will be the culmination of months of growing demands from the public and within Congress demanding transparency about the disgraced financier’s ties to powerful figures. Trump himself...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Sunday publicly questioned whether Israel or another country is pressuring President Trump to conceal the files on late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein. “I think it’s a question that many Americans are asking, especially when we saw information recently come out in these emails that the Oversight Committee that I serve on has released, and we saw Jeffrey Epstein with ties to Ehud Barak,” Greene told CNN of her X post. “…Was Jeffrey Epstein working for Israel? And I’m proud to say I don’t take money from AIPAC. I don’t take money from any special group...

The Editorial Board of The New York Times stated, “By apparently committing suicide in his Manhattan jail cell on Saturday morning, Jeffrey Epstein spared himself a lengthy trial that could have sent him to prison for the rest of his life on federal sex trafficking charges… While Mr. Epstein will never face a legal reckoning, the investigations into his crimes and those of others connected to him must continue. His premature death shouldn’t stop law enforcement authorities from finishing the job that they finally took up seriously years after they should have.” Then, “The evidence against Mr. Epstein was overwhelming...

VIDEOPresident Donald Trump has already been CLEARED of any wrong doing in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Yes, the Sleepy Joe Regime which did everything in its power to bring down Trump including multiple court cases of politically motivated lawfare to try to jail him as well as at least two attempts to assassinate him absolutely already went through the Epstein files with a fine tooth comb to find anything harmful for Trump. The fact that nothing damaging against Trump had been leaked out long ago means that Trump has been thouroughly vetted and, ironically, cleared by the the Biden Lawfare...
