Trump says Epstein case, arrested during his first presidential term, was part of a "Democrat playbook"


CSPAN @cspan 5h
President Trump on Jeffrey Epstein: "He's dead. He's gone. And all it is is certain Republicans got duped by the Democrats and they're following a Democrat playbook."


Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell 3h
Donald Trump just called his supporters “STUPID PEOPLE” for asking to see the Epstein Files that HE promised them.

Man, you must really not want those files out if you’re more willing to call your supporters STUPID than you are to release the files.



...and why was a supposed 'Democratic playbook' distributed out of the Trump White House to maga sycophants?



CBS: A group of 15 right-wing influencers visited the White House in February and emerged with binders labeled "The Epstein Files: Phase 1" that they obtained from Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Bondi later released a statement with links to the documents, and said, "The first phase of declassified files largely contains documents that have been previously leaked but never released in a formal capacity by the U.S. Government."

In a now-public letter, dated Thursday to FBI Director Kash Patel, came amid a flurry of posts from conservative influencers on social media who flocked to their platforms to show photos and videos of them outside the White House. The influencers with large social media followings, held up binders labeled "The Epstein Files: Phase 1," with the Department of Justice seal affixed to it.



...the Trump administration has their hands all over the Epstein evidence, clinging so tightly that it's taken vital oxygen from their brains.

And let's not forget that the evidence against Epstein was revealed to the publuc in actual victim testimony, the release of 150 pages of testimony in the Jeffrey Epstein grand jury case.


...here's the actual 'Democratic playbook'

Democrats have reportedly convinced a handful of Republicans to sign onto a resolution that would force a vote on the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
