He should be investigated first because he’s in a position he shouldn’t be, the others can be investigated later. He’s the one that ran on releasing those files.
and it appears he was more involved with Epstein than we originally thought. Why was he, the orange conman, spending so much time with Virginia G. at Epstein’s house as per the email released yesterday?
I knew all along t/rump was neck deep in the Epstein scandal. Having seen for myself the depravity of t/rump, I am not surprised at anything regarding the heinous nature of t/rump. I have been saying since t/rump first rode down the escalator to announce his run for the presidency, he was going to be bad for the country. Sadly, way too many people in the United States ignored all the warning signs and voted for him. Now they are reaping what they sowed.
I became convinced yesterday after the emails between Epstein and Maxwell were released that the orange conman is a pedophile. I just needed to read it from two other pedophiles. The conman can no longer lie his way out of this one.
Watching t/rump over the years and the sheer disgust I had for him, that escalator ride caused me to switch to Independent after decades as a Republican. Who knew how he would eventually destroy the Republican party.
Apparently she was sexually abused as a young girl so she was sexually assaulted for much of her life. Her husband was also a bad guy. She had a difficult life from what I understand.
Recall that Virginia, the person Trump had the lengthy discussion with, said Trump was never involved to her knowledge. According to her she told Trump in that conversation everything that had been done to her.
I suspect Trump took that information to the investigators both in Florida and NY. The end of this investigation may be the world discovers Epstein was a Mossad agent exposing the Mossad control of the US and other world govts, and Trump was the US star witness who sent him to jail.
By blocking the release of the Epstein files, President Donald Trump is leading a desperate effort to keep secret the facts of his involvement with convicted sexual predators Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Mike Johnson has proclaimed “calling the President of the United States a pedophile is highly disrespectful and offensive.”
Donald Trump has been found liable for sexual assault by multiple courts. He has been credibly accused of raping children. It is neither disrespectful nor offensive to challenge corrupt practices of any elected official.
Failure to demand the release of the Epstein files identifies those Republicans who are willing to protect pedophiles rather than their victims—i.e. the devious Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson.
He’s a desperate man who isn’t very bright- it doesn’t take bright to influence his MAGAs and get elected, but now he’s way out of his league. The really sad part is, we still have people trying to save his ass at the risk of their own careers- no integrity- DOJ, FBI, DEPT OF Defense, SCOTUS
Karma, I wholeheartedly agree. Trump is in defcon 1 panic mode right now because he knows full well that’s he’s implicated in the Epstein documents, because he’s GUILTY! And he HATES losing control of the news cycle. So his fear and panic makes him exceedingly dangerous right now.
He’s trying to spin this as a democratic hoax but it’s not working because most people don’t believe him. And he’s created a paradoxical narrative. If he’s not involved or guilty, then why wouldn’t he just order ALL files to be immediately released? But instead, he’s ordered the (his) DOJ to investigate democrats -
“In his Truth Social post, Trump wrote, “I will be asking A.G. Pam Bondi, and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s involvement and relationship with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, Chase, and many other people and institutions, to determine what was going on with them, and him. This is another Russia, Russia, Russia Scam, with all arrows pointing to the Democrats. Records show that these men, and many others, spent large portions of their life with Epstein, and on his ‘Island.'”
On top of the Epstein scandal, he’s created economic mayhem and other messes all over the world that he’s abandoned now because he realizes that the Epstein scandal isn’t going away. A few days ago the UK stated that it will no longer share sensitive intelligence with the United States.
So my biggest concern right now is, that Trump, as a narcissistic sociopath who’s in collapse mode, may suddenly start a catastrophic military conflict with another country simply to change the narrative and regain control of the news cycle. Yes, this is likely to get much worse. Suddenly. Without warning.
Narcissistic collapse is a profound state of mental distress that occurs when a narcissist's inflated sense of self is shattered by failure, humiliation, or a significant blow to their self-esteem. It's a breakdown of their carefully constructed "false self" where they can no longer sustain the pretense of superiority. This can lead to a range of reactions, from withdrawal and depression to intense anger, aggression, and self-harm.
Withdrawal would be wonderful, but unlikely. Add his dementia and significant other mental health issues to the mix and he's one sick SOB. Maybe his physical ills will take him out first if we're lucky.
This is not a political issue. Whoever is guilty, no matter political affiliation, they must face our judicial system. Lock all of them up. Children should be protected.
The minute he said that an investigation of this "hoax" should exclusive target Democrats he was admitting his own guilt. To him it is ONLY a political issue: saving his own skin.
When he's pardoned her and she's released and out of the spotlight, she will mysteriously take her own life, like all the others - if he's still alive.
I agree - if they're guilty lock them up. The problem is that this is totally partisan. Trump and his buddies will not be investigated - only his "enemies"
Nope, this isn’t going away for t/rump and his cronies. Even the MAGA cult members despise pedophilia. So the idea the t/rump is going to escape again, may be wishful thinking on someone’s part. Even right wing people like Boebert and MTG are hot on investigating this Epstein scandal. When t/rump has lost people like MTG and Boebert, you can put money on this going forward.
What's in the files that Trump does not want public??? Why is nobody talking about Melania Trump. She's in a lot of pictures with Epstein. I believe she is involved in someway. Maybe compromising positions with these rich powerful men. Just wondering.
I think she is involved too! We don’t know a lot about her even before she met Trump. We heard that she came from some foreign country and speaks all kinds of languages and she was a model, but we really don’t know about her.
Demanding that the investigations of this "hoax" be partisan is basically a. an admission that he's using it for retribution, not an honest investigation, and b. an admission of his own guilt. If he weren't guilty and if this was really a "hoax," he'd be demanding a full investigation, regardless of party or any other affiliation. But he's guilty.
Remember how he REFUSED CONTINUALLY to release his taxes (like EVERY presidential candidate is required to do -- and DOES) when running the first time? We all knew he was hiding something.... (AND it was later proven... WAY after the fact.) Why wasn't anything done at that time to force that? We have missed SO MAY OPPORTUNITIES to stop this con artist --ASIDE from the sorry fact that there were also so many enablers......
That's what stops me in my tracks every time, MM. Watching the wealthy and politically connected - not just in this case, but in many, many cases - never pay the price for their crimes.
They never found anything wrong with his taxes. They said he had misrepresented assets in applying for a bank loan, but that wasn't anything to do with taxes.
To misrepresent a bank for a loan you would have to misrepresented yourself in your taxes. All personal and business taxes are required to be reviewed for loans from a bank for business and real estate. A minimum of two years. 🙄
I get a case of the willies when I have to go into a bank for anything - you hope against hope that you have all your ducks in a row to get a lousy $30K car loan. Imagine the audacity to go in and lie, lie, lie - and come out of the bank millions of dollars richer.
If you followed the lawsuit, he clearly stated on the docs he provided that the estimates of the properties values were his companies valuations and that the banks involved should do their due diligence.
Yes, he would have provided financial records on each of the properties to support their values, that doesn't mean he cheated on his taxes. The estimates were for current and future value of specific pieces of real estate, not the same as a tax valuation.
All of the banks involved said they had no problem with the info he presented, that they did their own due diigence, that they were paid in full and on time and would do business with him again. So where is the victim, where is the crime?
Stop defending this man! He's a piece of shit! He is a liar, a conman, a rapist, a man who has had many allegations of inappropriate conduct against him. Paid off a porn star. Caught on tape staying you can grab women by the p*ssy just because you're a celebrity. AND WAS BEST FRIENDS WITH A KNOWN PEDOPHILE. We get it. You support Trump. Eventually you'll loose your rose colored glasses, or you won't, because maybe you have the same qualities of most white republican men. Racist and like them young? I mean you're trying to convince me E Jean Carroll said she enjoyed being SA'd.
His support of Israel's genocide, his bombing of Iran, of Yemen, his failure to bring troop home, his trillion dollar war defense budget, his failure to investigate anyone, his failure to release multiple documents, his shutting down of DOGE, my list is long with reasons why I do not support him.
His personal behavior has been disappointing, it has also been addressed in multiple lawsuits. Some he won, some he didn't. As for Carroll I am aware she has accused multiple men of trying to rape her. Trump is just one more.
So hypocritical especially when bondi told him he was in the files and he refused to release them. People aren't buying his blame others for his sins scheme anymore.
Idk where you are getting your information from, but no one wpuld say they enjoyed being sexually assaulted.
In the 2019 interview, Carroll told Cooper that she did not like to use the word rape because it "carries so many sexual connotations" and that "most people think of rape as being sexy" and "think of the fantasies."
You may want to rethink your position or even use chatgpt to review all social media posts, articles and the Court transcripts. The fact you believe she enjoyed it is sick and it frankly makes me question your own morals.
Trump’s deposition remarks mis-represent Carroll’s words: he claimed she said “rape was sexy” and "she loved being sexually assaulted", attributing that statement to her.
The phrase that Carroll used “I think most people think of rape as being sexy” was a commentary on cultural perception, not on her own experience. When stripped of context and attributed to her as a statement of personal feeling, it becomes misleading.
The article does not prove that Carroll said she enjoyed being sexually assaulted.
You cannot reasonably infer from the record that she said that. Her actual statement was about what other people/culture think about rape, not about her own feelings of enjoyment.
The claim that she “said she loved it” or “said it was very sexy” comes from Trump’s mis-characterization of her words in deposition, not a direct statement from Carroll herself.
Yes, Trump is an oaf, he is very much a man of his time and NY real estate developers are very, very rough people.
However, JJ Carroll was not the most believable of people, had accused multiple men of assault in the past and could provide no evidence in support of an actual attack,
That was his interpretation of her remarks based on what she had said in posts and interviews, in depositions. I can see how he reached that assumption. You don't.
And he was not found guilty of sexual assault, he was found in a civil suit, which is not criminal, that he had battered her by verbally disparaging her.
It wasn't a criminal conviction but he was convicted civilly for sexually abusing her.
Beginning of the article: "On Tuesday, May 12, 2023, the Manhattan jury of nine men and three women found the former president liable for SEXUALLY ABUSING and defaming Carroll and awarded Carroll $5 million in damages.
While E. Jean Carroll's lawsuit was a civil trial, the fact that the jury was asked to consider the evidence as to whether Trump raped, sexually abused or forcibly touched her might have led some to believe the matter was criminal or otherwise intimated criminal guilt."
There is No Excuse for Trump’s past behavior…She won her lawsuit and that makes him found guilty…Too many women came forward before but as usual money gets him a pass and so do people who believe he’s innocent…Laughable since his name has been mentioned 1500 times in Epstein files…
"How worried is Trump about the potential release of the Epstein files? It sure seems like Trump is planning to start a war with Venezuela to distract attention from the release of the Epstein files. On Thursday, as Trump and JD Vance maintained a stony silence about the Epstein scandal, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth spent the day posting on social media about “Operation Southern Spear,” a euphemism for land strikes against drug cartels in Venezuela. Although Operation Southern Spear has been in the works since January 2025, Hegseth and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs briefed Trump on Wednesday about military options for attacking Venezuela."
A war with Venezuela, could be a war with Russia involved. Russia has been backing up Venezuela regarding the defense of this country. All this being said, NOTHING will distract from the Epstein affair. Regarding t/rump, he may actually face blow back from within the Rethug party. The Rethugs are well aware of the terrible polling data on t/rump. If a lot of the Rethugs think t/rump will damage their chances to keep power, they will desert him like rats leaving a sinking ship.
I passed along Hubbell's comments. Personally, I think he wants to keep it in the news as one of many distractions, but if he tries this, I think (man, I sure hope) our senior military officers (Flag/Star) and (executive) Field Officers will keep their oaths
Oh really! How many have deserted him so far? It's easy to say that! So far, you're dead wrong! Look at all the things this guy has done over his lifetime and during his political career, and he's gotten away with all of them! Your comment is wishful thinking on your part! I wish you were right! So far we're on the wrong side of this history!
According to a number of people who have been on Judge Napolitano the person who is calling for and running the attacks on Venezuela is Rubio. Trump is just letting him run with it. Trump's focus is on Israel issues, and not much else.
I'd hate to be wrong 2x in one thread, but isn't his focus now, as always, on himself only and in particular on the files that if (when) released will point a J'Accuse...! finger at him?
Well Mike you should know Maxwell wasn’t sentenced till 2021 and then she was appealing so the couldn’t release anything due to still being litigated in the courts.
Pretty much the same actions from T🤥R🤥U🤥M🤥P🤥. If he did nothing wrong, as he claims here and as well as Russiagate, the Zelensky phone call, and the call to Georgia republicans to find 11780 votes, he should be begging to prove his innocence ASAP! That way it'll be over and done with. I mean... Why all the theatrics?
Instead, he and republican sycophants gaslights the public, lies through their teeth, denigrates the prosecutors, judges and jurors and attempts to tamper with and intimate witnesses through the media... and urging his supporters to do the same. 🤔 The guy is as guilty as the cat with feathers hanging from its mouth, sitting next to the bird cage.
The GOP is the most corrupt group of sick individuals ever! They lie without blinking. They blame Biden for everything. Mike Johnson is no Christian. He is the devil incarnate. I hope they all go down with Trump! Release the Esptein files !!
Cats out of the bag already. He can’t hide things that have now been publicly displayed. The more t/rump tries to hide things, the worse it looks for him. Even the MAGA cult is demanding a full accountability regarding the Epstein scandal. While t/rump may be able to murder someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any support, pedophilia is a whole different ball game.
hmmm....why would he need to prosecute someone over a hoax? kinda like he's admitting off the bat that it's gonna be phony charges..😂
He should be investigated first because he’s in a position he shouldn’t be, the others can be investigated later. He’s the one that ran on releasing those files.

Well they all seem to like 15yr old girls - so if the age limit for pedophilia is 16yrs - they are PEDOS !!! No other way to say it !
Watching t/rump over the years and the sheer disgust I had for him, that escalator ride caused me to switch to Independent after decades as a Republican. Who knew how he would eventually destroy the Republican party.
making it even weirder that she "committed suicide", just like Epstein....
Just before her book came out.
Apparently she was sexually abused as a young girl so she was sexually assaulted for much of her life. Her husband was also a bad guy. She had a difficult life from what I understand.
It looks really suspicious…

We need to de- fang that turd.
Wasn’t Virginia the “stolen”girl, makes you wonder what was happening there.
Trump supporters probably can't even find the Internet

Gosh he suddenly has Alzheimer’s

It is really hard to enjoy this show when there is so much at stake and nobody in this administration is getting stopped.
Even Mary Trump says that he'll take all of us down with him. This is very serious.

Narcissistic collapse is a profound state of mental distress that occurs when a narcissist's inflated sense of self is shattered by failure, humiliation, or a significant blow to their self-esteem. It's a breakdown of their carefully constructed "false self" where they can no longer sustain the pretense of superiority. This can lead to a range of reactions, from withdrawal and depression to intense anger, aggression, and self-harm.
Maybe harm to this country or the world.
Withdrawal would be wonderful, but unlikely. Add his dementia and significant other mental health issues to the mix and he's one sick SOB. Maybe his physical ills will take him out first if we're lucky.

If it comes to that, I don’t know if the Supreme Court want to lose any more face….
Are there any exclusions on that enemies list? Roy Cohn would be, but he's dead
we don't have the list or even all of the info yet. I'm sure there are several on the list that are dead by now.

Why investigate a hoax? It’s still astounding to me that the magas can’t process the hypocrisy
What a moron. It was still being investigated. The files could not be released at that time.
Thank you! I’m sick of these butt kissin narcs getting away with everything.
My thoughts exactly.
Which is what Trump is doing now, trying to start an investigation into Bill Clinton and others, the tie up the files “in an investigation”.
So hypocritical especially when bondi told him he was in the files and he refused to release them. People aren't buying his blame others for his sins scheme anymore.
He also said E Jean Carol liked being graped. That's on video in an interview as well.
Truth
He was repeating what she had said in a number of her posts and also in an interview.
Idk where you are getting your information from, but no one wpuld say they enjoyed being sexually assaulted.

And he was not found guilty of sexual assault, he was found in a civil suit, which is not criminal, that he had battered her by verbally disparaging her.

It wasn't a criminal conviction but he was convicted civilly for sexually abusing her.
Beginning of the article: "On Tuesday, May 12, 2023, the Manhattan jury of nine men and three women found the former president liable for SEXUALLY ABUSING and defaming Carroll and awarded Carroll $5 million in damages.
While E. Jean Carroll's lawsuit was a civil trial, the fact that the jury was asked to consider the evidence as to whether Trump raped, sexually abused or forcibly touched her might have led some to believe the matter was criminal or otherwise intimated criminal guilt."
There is No Excuse for Trump’s past behavior…She won her lawsuit and that makes him found guilty…Too many women came forward before but as usual money gets him a pass and so do people who believe he’s innocent…Laughable since his name has been mentioned 1500 times in Epstein files…
Trump is toast at some point. The MAGA Trump apologists may be starting to crack. We need to shame them. keep the foot on the pipe.
I hope the stress gives him a heart attack. Better yet, a stroke that leaves him drooling in a nursing home.
Yes, unable to talk or move or feed himself. A heart attack would be too kind for him.
yes, i would love him to be unable to do anything physical but still aware enough that he is sitting in his own shit.
He seems to have reached the no-talking stage, but oh, man, can he still eat!
My wish for him also
The stroke that leaves him drooling
Would this be a noticeable change from the status quo?
Or drooling in a prison cell.
even better!
Nope. Heart attack so that he's no longer living off my tax dollars. Being in a home drooling - we have to pay for.
I said the same thing! Stroke out but not die. Leave him motionless and speechless but coherant and, well, as cognizant as he can be.
Yes! Because he would absolutely hate that. It would be worse than prison for him
Will Trump start a war to distract from the Epstein files? Today's Edition Newsletter Robert B. Hubbell (Substack) November 14, 2025 https://roberthubbell.substack.com/p/will-trump-start-a-war-to-distract
"How worried is Trump about the potential release of the Epstein files? It sure seems like Trump is planning to start a war with Venezuela to distract attention from the release of the Epstein files. On Thursday, as Trump and JD Vance maintained a stony silence about the Epstein scandal, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth spent the day posting on social media about “Operation Southern Spear,” a euphemism for land strikes against drug cartels in Venezuela. Although Operation Southern Spear has been in the works since January 2025, Hegseth and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs briefed Trump on Wednesday about military options for attacking Venezuela."
A war with Venezuela, could be a war with Russia involved. Russia has been backing up Venezuela regarding the defense of this country. All this being said, NOTHING will distract from the Epstein affair. Regarding t/rump, he may actually face blow back from within the Rethug party. The Rethugs are well aware of the terrible polling data on t/rump. If a lot of the Rethugs think t/rump will damage their chances to keep power, they will desert him like rats leaving a sinking ship.
I passed along Hubbell's comments. Personally, I think he wants to keep it in the news as one of many distractions, but if he tries this, I think (man, I sure hope) our senior military officers (Flag/Star) and (executive) Field Officers will keep their oaths
There's NO honor among thieves
Oh really! How many have deserted him so far? It's easy to say that! So far, you're dead wrong! Look at all the things this guy has done over his lifetime and during his political career, and he's gotten away with all of them! Your comment is wishful thinking on your part! I wish you were right! So far we're on the wrong side of this history!
Leaving this as a placeholder but deleting my post that was so off the mark. Thank you, BG Pete.
I wasn't replying to you, Hobbs I was replying to Rob Jonas. I moved the comment to where it should be.
My apologies, BGPC. I misread it. The error is entirely mine. Sorry about that.
No apology necessary! We're on the same side! And for the record I firmly believe the senior officers will certainly remember and follow their oath!
According to a number of people who have been on Judge Napolitano the person who is calling for and running the attacks on Venezuela is Rubio. Trump is just letting him run with it. Trump's focus is on Israel issues, and not much else.
I'd hate to be wrong 2x in one thread, but isn't his focus now, as always, on himself only and in particular on the files that if (when) released will point a J'Accuse...! finger at him?
This is a really good discussion on Trump and what is happening within his administration, gets into who in his admin is responsible for what.

Well Mike you should know Maxwell wasn’t sentenced till 2021 and then she was appealing so the couldn’t release anything due to still being litigated in the courts.
maxwell even appealed to the Supreme Court....but they said no in October 2025.
Mike professes to not be aware of most things…
The rich and powerful that he is throwing under the bus will now turn on him. 😆😆 Can't wait!
Yes, and they all have very effective attorneys, where his DOJ is made up of clowns.
I wonder if they have in store for him what Epstein received as his reward. Just musing.
Pretty much the same actions from T🤥R🤥U🤥M🤥P🤥. If he did nothing wrong, as he claims here and as well as Russiagate, the Zelensky phone call, and the call to Georgia republicans to find 11780 votes, he should be begging to prove his innocence ASAP! That way it'll be over and done with. I mean... Why all the theatrics?
Instead, he and republican sycophants gaslights the public, lies through their teeth, denigrates the prosecutors, judges and jurors and attempts to tamper with and intimate witnesses through the media... and urging his supporters to do the same. 🤔 The guy is as guilty as the cat with feathers hanging from its mouth, sitting next to the bird cage.
The GOP is the most corrupt group of sick individuals ever! They lie without blinking. They blame Biden for everything. Mike Johnson is no Christian. He is the devil incarnate. I hope they all go down with Trump! Release the Esptein files !!
Just watch. He will use this concocted "ongoing" investigation as the reason why the files can't be released.
Cats out of the bag already. He can’t hide things that have now been publicly displayed. The more t/rump tries to hide things, the worse it looks for him. Even the MAGA cult is demanding a full accountability regarding the Epstein scandal. While t/rump may be able to murder someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any support, pedophilia is a whole different ball game.
Which is why Biden never released them during his term, as magic Mike raised that very question today.
