Donald Trump and Bill Clinton among those named in Epstein Docs

Recently released documents in the Jeffrey Epstein case mention former presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, though neither are accused of any wrongdoing. The documents, part of a civil defamation lawsuit against Epstein confidant Ghislaine Maxwell, include testimonies recalling interactions with Trump and Clinton. Maxwell, sentenced to 20 years for recruiting teenage girls for Epstein, had her deposition cite Clinton's travel on Epstein's plane. The release also alleges Prince Andrew and Alan Dershowitz's involvement, both of whom deny the accusations. Further document releases are anticipated.

Get all of the private money out of public elections. Too many dirty minds involved in dirty politics. Clean The Sewer.

[jkayit]

Bruh this is so misleading, Trumps name was listed in the context of the girl who was questioned had never seen Trump.

[harrisond]

That settles it. I am not voting for Clinton in 2024.

[KCCardCo]

Look how they put Trump's name first in the headline and not Bill Clinton.

[salmaal-shaoily]

Justice for the victims! We want these predators arrested!!!

[DrSabriBebawi]

This is so sick, so, so sick and unsettling. All participants in this disturbing affair should be in prison for life.

[TooncesX]

Grouping Trump (who went to a casino) and Clinton who went to the island 50 times is hilarious yet expected 😂😂😂

[buryitdeep]

All of the victims said "No" to questions about Trump. Completely exonerating him. Trump also kicked Epstein out of the Mar-a-lago for inappropriate behavior with an underage girl. That alone speaks volumes to Trump's character.

[lockerroomtalk]

It’s funny how the media wants to share news that we already knew. What about the names that are on the list that don’t want to be exposed

[ExSiegfried]

We already knew this. What we want to know is the consequences for those predators.

[cyeszin]

Trump was named in the documents yes. But he was also vindicated by said documents as well 😂

[willow]

If I remember correctly Trump only rode on the planes. He also threw Epstein off of Mar-a-Lago for his behavior

[graphiquejack]

The thing we need to remember is this is only the stuff that’s come forward from these particular cases and claimants. There’s a lot more that we still don’t know. There are plenty of rumours of wrongdoing among many many men on both sides of the political spectrum, as well as with other wealthy, powerful people. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Anyone who was clearly a ‘close friend’ of Epstein and Maxwell must have at least known something weird was going on, even if they didn’t participate in it. To say nothing is pretty dispicable in of itself. These girls and young women deserved better.

[SOBO-sqnk]

SHE ONLY GOT 20 YEARS FOR THE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF YOUNG GIRLS SHE WAS TRAFFICKING????


ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME????

[robotron]

If you can't see what MSNBC is all about at this point, well, you're probably not long for this world.

[aliesow]

I am not a supporter of Trump, but why is the focus consistently on him? What about the others? Oh, I forgot, they are all liberals. Therefore, MSNBC will make an effort to either omit their names entirely or provide fewer details about them. I understand that this is a liberal news network, but the bias seems to reach an entirely new level. These are serious issues, and these young women will be forever traumatized. It's important to address this without solely focusing on one person.

[Kirke]

Is this all they're going to do?? Give us names of people we already knew were involved?

[undertakerfd]

Trump is on the flight logs but only from teterboro New Jersey down to Florida. Not once does he show up on the flight logs going to the island. On top of that, trump is on record talking all kinds of crap about this guy, he hated him. Years before any of this came out. You can try and spend this as hard as you want, but if you put the names and all the information out, Democrats are going to be really upset that Trump's not on that list the way they want him to be

[WOLFMTHER]

**Documents exonerate Trump**

MSNBC: Trump’s name was mentioned!!

[freedom_frontier]

Trump was only briefly mentioned 4 times.
Clinton was mentioned 32 times, in great detail. Including stating that "He likes them young".

Context is everything.
