Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, December 24, 2025

The president has tried to minimize their friendship, but documents and interviews reveal an intense and complicated relationship. Chasing women was a game of ego and dominance. Female bodies were currency.

"Epstein's brother, Mark Epstein, told the FBI in 2023 that Epstein was murdered in his jail cell because he was about to 'name names.' Mark Epstein, 71, who has long believed that his brother was killed, also alleged in the tip that President Trump 'authorized' the late sex trafficker's murder."

Donald Trump is what he appears to be: a financial and sexual criminal.

Interesting that he now denies things he has admitted publically.

But his mental illness demands that he both brag and lie.

His peculiar criminality demands that he does so many other things.

The Epstein victims believe, apparently to a woman, that Epstein was murdered in prison.

The Epstein Files now accuse Donald Trump of being a witness to the disposal of a newborn bastard child at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein in Lake Michigan.

I believe this.

There is nothing in Trump's life of character to make me doubt it.

Too bad USAG Merrick Garland sat on these damaging files from 21 Jan 2021 to 19 Jan 2025.

Imagine if SC Jack Smith, NYSAG Letitia James, and Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg had access to these files.

An army of victims would have come forward with high-powered attorneys filing lawsuits as well.

Dummkopf Trumpf would have spent half his time fighting these allegations in criminal and civil courts instead of running for POTUS.

The court of public opinion may have soured on the sex predator as well.

Ask Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor how everything worked out for him.

"The Department of Justice has officially released nearly 30,000 more pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Some of these documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Dummkopf Trumpf that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election. To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trumpf already. Nevertheless, out of our commitment to the law and transparency, the DOJ is releasing these documents with the legally required protections for Epstein's victims."

Worst. Coverup. Of. All. Time.

"and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized"

So it's "weaponized" even when it's the truth.

That is a pretty serious persecution complex, when the truth can be turned into a weapon against you.

#4 Imagine the federal government being run by imbeciles such as Major DEI Boazo, onepigironheadedsmoothbrainaut, shrimpsizedgentaliahiddenbyataco"Dan", _visitor, Left Hind Turd, TheBovineExcrement, BJ boi, ---------------------, and bell boi (aka: ballwasher).

The Trump sycophants currently running the federal government are exactly like those inhabitants of the Retort. They are all, to a person:

  • Stupid (and believing everyone else is as stupid as they are)

  • Over-the-top, but all too obvious, gaslighting

  • Bothsidism

  • "Biden's fault"

  • Barely literate (with the emphasis on "Barely")

  • Historically ignorant (and completely ignorant of history)

  • Incapable of doing basic math

But, most importantly:

  • Incompetent

And I do so enjoy watching them all squirm: From the Trump all the way down to the knuckle-dragging bottom feeder also known as shrimpsizedgentaliahiddenbyataco"Dan".

What fun!

Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!

It can be a Gold Rope... from China, even. I'm OK with that.

I'm not supposed to be; I'm supposed to be seditions, but not violent. Fortunately, no one is perfect.

Trump says he was never on Epstein's plane or stupid island' (2024)
thehill.com

... President Trump denounced reports of his association with Jeffrey Epstein on Tuesday, arguing he had never been on the convicted sex trafficker's plane or "stupid island" after images of the two made by artificial intelligence (AI) surfaced online.

"This is what the Democrats do to their Republican Opponent, who is leading them, by a lot, in the Polls. This is A.I., and it is very dangerous for our Country!" Trump posted on his Truth Social site. "I was never on Epstein's Plane, or at his stupid' Island. Strong Laws ought to be developed against A.I. It will be a big and very dangerous problem in the future!" ...



... and then ...

Federal Prosecutor Was Surprised by Trump's Flights on Epstein's Jet
www.nytimes.com

... Subject: Re: Epstein flight records
Date: Wed 08, Jan. 2020 00:56:36

For your situational awareness, wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware), including during the period we would expect to charge in a Maxwell case. In particular, he is listed as a passenger on at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996, including at least four flights on which Maxwell was also present. ...

Am I the only person who notices a different in approach to the Epstein Files?

fmr Pres Clinton:

Bill Clinton wants any other mentions of him from the Epstein files to be released
www.scrippsnews.com

..."Refusal to do so will confirm the widespread suspicion the Department of Justice's actions to date are not about transparency, but about insinuation," a statement from Clinton's spokesperson said. ...

Pres Trump:

Lies and an apparent cover-up attempt.
