https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/14/trump-doj-jeffrey-epstein-clinton-jpmorgan-summers.htmlPresident Donald Trump on Friday said that he is asking the Department of Justice to investigate relationships between notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and former President Bill Clinton, JPMorgan Chase
, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, billionaire tech investor Reid Hoffman and others.
Trumps statement comes as he faces renewed pressure over his own past friendship with Epstein, who killed himself in August 2019 after being arrested on child sex trafficking charges.
Now that the Democrats are using the Epstein Hoax, involving Democrats, not Republicans, to try and deflect from their disastrous SHUTDOWN, and all of their other failures, I will be asking A.G. Pam Bondi, and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epsteins 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, Trump wrote Friday in a Truth Social post.

(2,771 posts)He's going to pressure his minion to file charges. Once that happens, the other side can ask to see whatever evidence, is that correct?
Jersey Devil
(10,629 posts)The so-called investigations would continue until the end of Trump's presidency, during which no info would be released to anyone. There would be no "discovery" because there would never be any charges. And even if there were charges, only info pertaining to that particular defendant would be released to them, and in federal cases, discovery is very limited.

HE IS THE LEADER OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
And the batteries on his deflection shield are dying.
He is directing HIS Justice Department to target His ENEMIES. Because that is exactly what the Justice Department is not supposed to do.

"Have one of your cronys ask to see the mortgage to mara lago...cash from electricians union,, (his driver Matt was the bag man, later made an exec at the public co.) And the $30 million dollar loan from the casino to Donald Trump. Back dated." Epstein to his attorney, 2012.

(2,980 posts)Patel has sworn under oath that there were no others. "epstein trafficked only to himself'" if i remember correctly.
Bondi has testified , under oath , that "ere are no epstein files.
but if any of these people are guilty they need max penalty allowed by law.

(16,803 posts)as the walls close in on Been A Dick Donald and his billionaire friends, he'll become even more dangerous, expect an attack on Ven. any day as a means to distract from the Epstein files.
It won't work, but in the process, a lot of innocent Venezuelan's will die, as will American military members.
I guess he misses the aircraft bringing dead US forces to Dover AFB.

(38,265 posts)Wondering if it's possible he thinks he can open an investigation, then claim the files can't be released during an investigation!

(16,827 posts)His base isn't going to shun him over anything. I already saw two of them explaining away the emails this morning on Facebook.
The more actual emails that I think independents and Republicans who aren't MAGA can see, the faster we can get rid of the SOB.
Just my thinking...

Unbelievable the way Trump thinks, though there is probably some validity to it since he's lasted this long.
