Hard to say for sure but it does look like Trump and his wife were involved with Epstein a little bit more than they would like admit.
 
If you prefer to read:

  • First lady Melania Trump, in scathing comments on Thursday, blasted what she described as an array of false claims about her and notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
  • “I am not Epstein’s victim,” Melania Trump said. “Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump.”
  • “I have never had any knowledge of Epstein’s abuse of his victims,” she said. “I was never involved in any capacity. I was not a participant.”

Melania Trump’s Jeffrey Epstein denial challenged by bombshell 2019 FBI report​


A newly unearthed Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) witness interview from 2019 seemingly contradicts Melania Trump's recent statements denying connections to Jeffrey Epstein.

On April 9, the first lady held a press conference at the White House that surprised many. She issued a rare public statement, denying any connections with the late s*x offender.

Pam Bondi. no show but I don't think anyone expected her to show. She did her jobbed protected the pedophiles. If she's convicted of anything she will get an immediate pardon.
 
It's over.

The collapse is baked in.

This is Rome, writ large...modernized.

Lies, secret deals, evil groups with covert agendas and bribed operatives...and real crimes ignored, and the criminals left to repeat, again and again.

And the lies become increasingly transparent, and increasingly repetitive. A large percentage of the populace submits to the indoctrination...as the outrages become moar grotesque.

Final chapter, chaos and collapse. We're entering that phase.
 

She doesn't care. She's already moved on and if she doesn't already have a very high paying job offer, she soon will.

Her, Kash and 100's of others that have actually seen the information and done nothing. It boggles the mind. These people have sold their souls for a paycheck and a pension. Who knows what else.
 
as if nobody would leak a thing if Trump was involved...

Why weren't they released during the Biden administration?​

newsnationnow.com/politics/why-were-epstein-files-not-released-biden(NewsNation) —

As tens of thousands of pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein continue to be released, Republican leaders continue to question why the previous administration didn’t declassify them.

In December, Congress and President Donald Trump passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, compelling the Department of Justice to release documents related to Epstein by Dec. 19.

Since then, several rounds of files have been published by the Department of Justice, though amajority are heavily redacted. A complete timeline for the release of the files is unknown.

Trump is mentioned and pictured in the files, and some photos featuring Trump were restored tothe DOJ’s website after Democrats accused prosecutors of trying to shield the president.

In a Dec. 23 statement, the DOJ said some of the new files contain “untrue and sensationalistclaims” about Trump, submitted to the FBI before the 2020 election. The department did not clarifywhich claims — and corresponding files — contained such material.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer asked the Senate to sue the Justice Department overthe unmet deadline and has accused the Trump administration of attempting to “hide the truth.”

Conversely, Republicans have pointed the finger at the previous administration. So, why weren’t the Epstein files released while former President Joe Biden was in office?

Epstein case was an open investigation under Biden​

The Epstein case was an open criminal investigation during the Biden administration, Miami Herald investigative reporter Julie K. Brown explained on social media. Brown’s extensive reporting since 2017 has shone a light on the crimes of Epstein and his longtime accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. Her book about Epstein, titled “Perversions of Justice,” is a New York Times bestseller.

“They had an open grand jury. … And even after Maxwell’s conviction, the case was on appeal — anyone in law enforcement knows you don’t open your case file when it’s still under appeal,” Brown added.

Victims were still going to the FBI with information during Biden’s term, but that changed when President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice reviewed the files and closed the case in July, Brown said.

Trump reverses course on Epstein files​

Though Trump campaigned last year on the promise he would immediately release the Epstein files if he won the presidency, he switched his narrative earlier this year. Since then, he has received pressure from both sides of the aisle to release the files.

As public pressure mounted, Trump questioned the political rationale for renewed interest in releasing the files.

In a July interview with conservative outlet Real America’s Voice, Trump said, “I think in the case of Epstein, they’ve already looked at it and they are looking at it and I think all they have to do is put out anything credible. But you know, that was run by the Biden administration for four years.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson and other Trump allies have echoed that stance.

“The Biden Department of Justice had the files the entire time, and not a single one of the people who were so loud and animated right now ever said anything about it for all those four years,” Johnson said during a news conference Tuesday. Trump eventually reversed course and urged House Republicans to vote to release all files related to the investigation.

“We have nothing to hide,” Trump wrote on social media.

Tangled web, woven of lies.

I've come to my own conclusions, and nothing contradicts it. TRUMP is only in there as a peripheral player - like Godot in the play of the same name. What ties him in are his FRIENDS - who are mostly Dumbo cracks, in many cases POWERFUL Dumbo cracks.

THAT is why the Emperor of Ice Cream didn't release the files. Those FOTs were his friends, too. Or rather, his puppetmasters' friends.

Trump could have come out of this a hero - and easily, by just coming clean, frying Lutnick and Musk, maybe, and all the Insiders who have been Republicans for maybe 20 minutes.

He didn't have the guts. He's loyal to his friends but he can't tell true friends from false friends, from players and groupies and hangers-on.
 
Yea no-one has anything to hide and it's all a democrat hoax. Thats why it's classified right? We classify hoaxes now?

Both parties. It's a Political Elites (not a)hoax, now.

But, lets face it. Lifer politicians are different from, say, self-made billionaires (or, if you like, bribery-graft billionaires; but the difference remains). A guy as rich as Trump, who's been married multiple times, who had women throwing themselves at him...he doesn't need a Fantasy Island filled with little girls. Old men with no redeeming social value, who have lived in "elective" office all their lives...fat, weak, ignorant, bored...THEY need a place like Jeffy's Funhouse to spend all their PAC misappropriation.

The difference between those who make money (however they do) and those who just take money.

Trump's business model was his ingratiating himself with takers, who also, with some fluke, would have say-so over his projects, and later, his political aims. He not only knows how to make a deal; he doesn't know how NOT to. That's how he winds up with friends like Howard Lutnick.

And those friends...are worse than enemies, as we're now seeing.
 
Last night the news reported that a suicide note has been found. No clue how true this crap is but I do expect to hear more about it in coming days.
