Epstein’s Ghost Calling the Shots in Trump’s White House

To say that Epstein is haunting Trump from the grave doesn't quite go far enough. Epstein has effectively risen from the dead to dominate Trump's presidency and threaten his legacy. Trump can start wars, deploy troops, manufacture crises, but none of it shakes Epstein loose. No dog Trump wags barks loud enough. Epstein may be dead, but in Trump's White House, he's the one with the bone.

Epstein died in federal custody during Trump's first term. His death was ruled a suicide, and Trump's Justice Department confirmed the FBI investigation supported that conclusion, and yet Epstein is still everywhere.

Borrowing the words of Fielding Mellish, spoken in a different context, Trump's Epstein Coverup really is "a travesty. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham."
