President Donald Trump has dropped a bombshell, suggesting that the Biden administration would’ve eagerly leaked any dirt on him from the Jeffrey Epstein files if it existed, as the Daily Caller reports.
During a recent visit to Turnberry, Scotland, Trump tackled questions about the controversial Epstein files, dismissing the entire saga as a “hoax” while defending his allies and slamming the handling of the case by his political adversaries.
Let’s rewind to the early 2000s, when Trump and Epstein were acquaintances, a relationship Trump admits soured over a Palm Beach property dispute in 2004. Two years later, in 2006, Epstein faced his first arrest on charges of felony solicitation of prostitution. It’s a messy timeline, but one that sets the stage for today’s debates.
Trump’s past with Epstein, revealed
Fast forward to 2019, when Epstein’s death while in custody — officially ruled a suicide by the Department of Justice and FBI — sparked endless conspiracy theories. A forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Baden, hired by Epstein’s brother, stirred the pot on Fox & Friends by suggesting the autopsy hinted at foul play.
“Epstein’s autopsy was more consistent with homicidal strangulation than suicidal hanging,” Baden claimed. Well, that’s a head-scratcher, but official reports stand firm on suicide, leaving many to wonder if we’ll ever know the full story.
That same year, on the night of Epstein’s death, correctional officers Tova Noel and Michael Thomas allegedly skipped mandatory checks at midnight, 3 a.m., and 5 a.m., even falsifying records to cover their tracks. Charges against them were dropped by the DOJ in May 2021 after they reportedly met the terms of a deferred prosecution agreement. Talk about a wrist slap — turns out accountability isn’t always on the menu.
Trump defends Bondi amid controversy
Now, circling back to Trump’s orbit, he’s staunchly defending Attorney General Pam Bondi against criticism over her handling of the Epstein files. Bondi hinted on Fox News in February that she had a client list on her desk, though the DOJ and FBI have since clarified that no such list exists. It’s a curious claim, and one that’s raised eyebrows on both sides of the aisle.
On July 17, Trump took to Truth Social, publicly urging Bondi to seek the release of all relevant grand jury testimony, pending court approval. That’s a bold move, signaling he’s not afraid of what might surface — or perhaps confident nothing will.
Meanwhile, a Wall Street Journal piece from the same day alleged that Trump sent Epstein a suggestive letter for his 50th birthday in 2003, complete with a questionable drawing. Trump vehemently denied the claim, slapping lawsuits on the Journal, Rupert Murdoch, Dow Jones & Company Inc., News Corporation, and the reporters behind the story. If nothing else, it’s a reminder that the media and Trump remain locked in a never-ending cage match.
Biden administration under continued fire
Shifting to the heart of Trump’s argument, he asserted on Monday that if the Epstein files held anything incriminating, the Biden team would’ve splashed it across headlines long ago. He’s got a point — political opponents rarely sit on ammunition when it’s handy.
“Those files were run by the worst scum on Earth,” Trump declared, pointing fingers at figures like former FBI Director James Comey and former Attorney General Merrick Garland. “If they had anything, I assume they would’ve released it.”
“The whole thing is a hoax,” he continued, doubling down on the notion that the files were weaponized by his enemies, including Biden himself. It’s a fiery accusation, but in a world where trust in institutions is thinner than a dime, many might nod along.
Epstein saga continues to haunt
Trump’s broader point is that for four years, the folks running the government — his direct rivals — had control over these files. If there were a smoking gun, wouldn’t it have been fired by now? It’s a question that lingers, even for the skeptics.
This Epstein mess isn’t just about one man; it’s a symbol of deeper distrust in how power operates behind closed doors. Trump’s framing of the issue as a political witch hunt resonates with those fed up with what they see as a weaponized justice system. Yet, without full transparency, the public is left piecing together a puzzle with half the pieces missing.
So, where does this leave us? The Epstein files remain a lightning rod, with Trump insisting he’s clean, Bondi under scrutiny, and official narratives clashing with whispers of conspiracy. Until more is declassified—if ever—expect this story to keep fueling debates and distrust on all sides.
