Trump claims it's time for America to look beyond Epstein

With the recent release of documents from the US Department of Justice, President Trump is urging the nation to move past the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. However, this is easier said than done. The documents, which emerged from a sex-trafficking investigation, include extensive correspondence that has ensnared several high-profile individuals.

Deputy US Attorney General Todd Blanche announced the end of the government's review, stating that no new prosecutions were warranted. "There's a lot of correspondence, emails, and photographs," Blanche said, "but that's not enough to prosecute."

Despite the DOJ’s conclusion, the House of Representatives continues its inquiry. Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton are set to testify, highlighting the enduring impact of the scandal.

Congress members and Epstein's victims are pushing for further disclosures, convinced there are omitted documents. This persistence underscores the complexity of moving beyond what has become a deeply entrenched narrative.

Trump, at the White House, expressed a desire to "get on to something else," asserting that nothing incriminating surfaced about him. Despite this claim, his name appears over 6,000 times in the documents, revealing a past friendly relationship with Epstein, which he maintains ended in the early 2000s.

An email from 2011 by Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell, mentioning Trump, added fuel to the fire. It implied his strategic silence, stating, "I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is Trump."

The documents also included unverified FBI tips from 2016, accusing Trump and others of misconduct. These allegations, lacking concrete evidence, disappeared temporarily from the DOJ's website, sparking speculation of a cover-up aimed at protecting the president.

Epstein’s ties have brought reputational damage to various prominent figures, including Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, Lord Peter Mandelson, and Larry Summers. Meanwhile, figures like Bill Gates and Elon Musk have addressed their own connections to Epstein, explaining mentions in the released files.

Democrats allege the DOJ may have withheld incriminating documents regarding Trump. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has demanded access to all records, questioning the transparency of the release.

Lisa Phillips, an Epstein survivor, criticized the DOJ’s handling of the documents, citing incomplete disclosures and mishandling of survivors' identities.

As calls for transparency grow, Democrats threaten subpoena action if they gain control of the House in upcoming elections. The relentless push for accountability suggests that despite Trump's insistence, the nation may not be ready to leave the Epstein saga behind.

Key Takeaways

• Trump urges US to move on from Epstein, but challenges persist.

• DOJ’s review concludes, but House inquiry and public demands continue.

• Figures like the Clintons remain under scrutiny amid ongoing disclosures.

“Nothing to see here, people" - just thousands of document mentions, missing files, survivors asking questions, Congress still investigating, and a former president urging everyone to "move on".

Totally normal. Please disperse in an orderly fashion!

If he was so concerned and innocent he would demand the files be released…..we all know he’s a dirty little monkey no doubt about it.hes also embarrassed that it’s becoming known that his old lady was one of (Epsteins girls)…….by the way the Clinton’s are willing to testify if it’s in a public hearing.

He obviously wants facts released and... Lookout! Over there! Iran!

As Richard Nixon did declare, while president, "the American people are tired of Watergate."

Now let's get back to the idea of destroying all the ovens in Denmark so they can't make pastries and their economy collapses.

Well if the Department of Justice and the FBI say it, it must be untrue. How are they to be trusted, especially when they're being politicized to the extent that they are right now?

Trump has a lot to answer for, he had a two decade long friendship with Epstein, who said on record Don was his closest friend in the world. There's countless amounts of information about Trump having spent an inordinate amount of time at the mansion, and there are flight records showing that Trump flew on his jet at least seven times, possibly many more times than that, and we know what his penchant was for "very young women".

Did he visit the island? Very likely.

Did he commit statutory rape? Very likely.

Did he coerce women into sex? Very likely.

Did he get with women under the legal age?

Very likely.

Did our current president rape women?

Very likely.

All one has to do is consider the level to which this man is and was morally depraved to come up with those logical answers.

Will you guys please stop this nonsense, will you please stop insisting on the release of these files? I'm not guilty, I was never friends with Epstein, we were never close, we didn't hang out together, the photos of us with our arms around each other were all doctored, I didn't spend a lot of time at his mansion, I didn't take multiple trips to Orgy Island, I've never been with underage women, I've never sexually assaulted a woman, and I've never committed rape.

Can't you see how incredibly handsome and appealing I am? Why would I need to do that, all women want me, and I can just grab them by the pu***, just so just stop with the nonsense, and leave it alone.

I know I may have mentioned it several hundred times during the campaign, but I'm the king now, so you guys need to just forget it and behave like loyal subjects and show me alot of fealty. Behave yourselves.

Look over there! No, over there!

One thing in his favor is that if they were friends only, it is normal to be friends with rich, sophisticated guys.

As said before, if there are real videos of trump having sex with a minor, then it's game over.

Overwheming demand of 89% American public want transparency and will not move on.

Turn the page...

Yeah, I just turned the page. But Trump was on the next page too. And the one after that. And...

I disagree.

I want to keep talking about Mandelson until he faces a judge/jury.

I want Bill Gates to be exposed for what he is. Same as the deplorables, the Clintons.

Let's not move on.

On Tuesday, during a heated exchange in the Oval Office, CNN’s White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins attempted to ask the president about the latest release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Collins tried to press the president on details about his allies (billionaire Elon Musk and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick) appearing in the latest drop of documents (alongside the president himself, thousands of times) and attempted to ask about getting justice for the victims and survivors of Epstein’s crimes. She did not get an answer.

“You are the worst reporter. No wonder CNN has no ratings, because of people like you,” Trump said, interrupting and insulting her, while insisting that “nothing came out” in the documents about him.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile,” he continued. “I’ve known you for 10 years. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a smile on your face. You know why you’re not smiling? Because you know you’re not telling the truth.”

The criminal in chief should get reminded every single day of his life that he and his administration are criminals.

On pondering the Epstein thing this morning.

I wonder? Flavio Briatore once said "I am rich. I know what rich people want"

So Epstein simply provided a service that celebrities availed themselves of.

Mere mortals like ourselves have to make do with Nana, Soi 6 etc.. But some people cannot do that.

Nothing to see here. Move along, move along. LOOK! We have a duty to bomb Iran!!! BOOM!

Did you forget to mention Trump in your list of who you wanted to go to court?

No.

I've seen nothing credible in the files to suggest that would happen.

Maybe you shouldn't look with one eye closed

Just now, CallumWK said:

Maybe you shouldn't look with both closed.

There are four pieces of information that need to be revealed about Epstein:

Precisely who committed what crimes against how many girls?

Who / which organizations engaged in the coverup and how did they do so?

Who was Epstein working for?

What was the purpose of Epstein’s organized abuse and how was the information he gathered used, against who was it used and who was using it?

This isn’t over, not by a long way it’s not.

IF you cant see the illegal activities Trump (and others) were actively involved in and has already been testified to by multiple victims in court documents and videos your ignorant or you believe the human trafficking of minors for sexual purposes is appropriate and you condone it right?

I'll ignore the silly strawman.

I was referring specifically to Trump. Not others.

Which court documents and videos do you believe provide sufficient evidence to lead to a conviction of Trump?

After that, maybe who killed Epstein will be revealed.

Which evidence did you find in the files that may lead to incriminate the 'Clintons'? 🤣

And the fact that large swathes of documents have been redacted to the point they are just blacked-out pieces of paper doesn't at all seem suspicous to you?

Just admit it - when you say 'I want to keep talking about Mandelson until he faces a judge/jury. I want Bill Gates to be exposed for what he is. Same as the deplorables, the Clintons.' what you are really saying is I want everyone I don't like exposed, but please don't touch my idol Trump.

Not really. If Trump was incriminated as you are suggesting Biden would have released them. He didn't, and now we are seeing why.

I want whoever is guilty exposed. So far, that appears to be Mandelson, Gates and most likely The Clintons (amongst others). Haven't seen much info about Trump.

As a neutral observer on the whole affair (apart from Mandelson of course, I'd love to see him get his comeuppance) I believe I am well placed to make such a call, unlike so many of the biased/afflicted Trump haters.

Non sequitur, perhaps based on the assumption Biden would have corrupted the DOJ in the same manner as Trump has.

Here is a copy of a court document filed in June 2016 and I have been unable to "Fact Check" it, so any feedback on it is welcome and I will delete it if it is untrue, or the Mods can.

This document (www.justice.gov) is dated June 18, 2016 and is a statement from one of the victims of Trump/Epstein: –

14. I personally witnessed defendant Trump telling the plaintiff that she shouldn't ever say anything if she didn't want to disappear like the 12-year-old female xxxxx, and that he was capable of having her whole family killed.

15. After leaving the employment of Mr Epstein in the year 2000 I was personally threatened by Mr Epstein that I would be killed and my family killed as well if I ever disclosed any of the physical and sexual abuse of minor females but I have personally witnessed by Mr Epstein or any of his guests.

16. I am coming forward to swear to the truthfulness of the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr Trump and Mr Epstein, including the plaintiff, during the time of my employment from the years of 1990 – 2004 for Mr Epstein. I swear to these facts under the penalty of perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

There is no strawman except you and your nonsense post. plenty have been published and available on line. Google or any search app is your friend. Educate YOURSELF or stop making ridiculously ignorant statements.

the doj sealed the conviction records and grand jury testimony of victims in the FLA convictions and that the only reason they weren't released early. Again educate yourself , the info is available
