Is staffing a euphemism�
Trump: For years I wouldn't talk to Jeffrey Epstein. He did something that was inappropriate. He hired help and I said don't ever do that again. He stole people that worked for me
So Trump's beef with Jeffrey Epstein stemmed from Epstein poaching staff from him, NOT that Trump was concerned about Epstein abusing young women as his lying staff like @StevenCheung47 have claimed. Helpful clarification.

Now we know what the fighting was about. Not the child sex trafficking. Staffing.

The Guardian reported so much of this months ago it would be nice to get credit > Re: WH asked proof that three aides were leakers theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mβ¦ > Re: That the evidence against the aides was flimsy theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jβ¦ > Re: WH has been at odds w Hegseth over hisβ¦
βοΈ NEW deep-dive from me out this a.m. β Remember when SecDef @PeteHegseth fired those 3 employees (2 of them longtime friends) & publicly accused them of leaking? At the time, the WH & top Trump allies stood by him/his allegationsβ¦ But turns out that thereβs now a pervasiveβ¦
BREAKING: Trump just agreed to a trade deal with the European Union that places 15% tariffs on all imports. The previous rate was about 2%. That cost will be passed on to you. Art of the deal.
To former prosecutors, everything about the Justice Dept. interview with Ghislaine Maxwell looked unorthodox cbsnews.com/news/to-formerβ¦
Gasparino: The stuff they are buying from us they probably would have bought anyway. And when you say we get 15%. True. But that means U.S. Consumers are paying 15% more too. It's kind of like a tax increase on U.S. Consumers.
Weird, because it was the DOJ under Trump that arrested Epstein in 2019. So his administration built the case for that and collected all of the files needed to prosecute the case. He's lying.
Reporter: You had said you had not been briefed that your name was in the Epstein files, doesnβt the AG have to tell you? Trump: Itβs a hoax. Those files were run by the worst scum on earth. They run by Garland, Comeyβ¦ They can easily put something in the files thatβs a phony.
Got it. Autopen put Trump in the Epstein list.

Gov Roy Cooper of NC, a Democrat, and very popular, is running for a US Senate seat. The ads and comments under it are just silly. The legislature is entirely controlled by GOP who stripped a lot of executive power even before he was sworn in. Lying is the MAGA default setting.
Itβs official: Roy Cooper has announced his candidacy for US Senate!
AMERICAN CONSUMERS PAY THE TARIFFS. AMERICAN CONSUMERS PAY THE TARIFFS. AMERICAN CONSUMERS PAY THE TARIFFS.
Good.
I have thought on it and prayed about it, and I have decided: I am running to be the next U.S. Senator from North Carolina.
When the attorney representing roughly 20 Epstein victims asked to be included in the highly inappropriate meetings between Todd Blanche & Ghislaine Maxwell, but was barred from attending - Blanche is acting as Trumpβs lawyer, not the US Deputy AG. Release the #EpsteinTrumpFiles
EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO EPSTEIN. VANCE WAS PROPPED UP BY PETER THIEL. THAT'S HOW HE BECAME TRUMP'S VP. THE TRUMP REGIME IS A TRANSNATIONAL PEDOPHILE RING AND CRIME SYNDICATE. THE GOP MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND THE SUPREME COURT ARE COMPLICIT BY COVERING UP THEIR CRIMES.
Dear MAGA, this is the deep state you fear.
As the Scottish coastal town of Aberdeen awaited the visit of US President Trump, who is opening his second golf course in the area, Joseph Delappe, an American artist, set up an apology desk to say sorry on behalf of his country reut.rs/4o8MLwh
Retrofitting Trump's 747-8 luxury jet bribe from Qatar might cost taxpayers $934 million (!!!)
So basically, MAGA has to make a choice in the next few weeks about whether they can stomach pedophilia in order to maintain their support for Trump. Meanwhile, our conscience is clear .
Assface says βa lot of peopleβ have asked him about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. Translation: Zero people have asked him about it, but heβs gonna do it because theyβve made a deal with her to keep the world from knowing that Donald trump raped children.https://t.co/Haf4cYEm4e
