The Epstein Files Hypocrisy & Howie Klein Too
Season 2025 Episode 710
Today is Thursday. Howie Klein has been doing a weekly segment on this show for probably 15 years. He’s been out a bit lately as he’s been undergoing treatment for cancer. Thankfully, today he has a day off from that, so he'll join us in the second half hour of today's show. Despite his health issues, Howie's been busy writing at DownWithTyranny.com and working to find great progressive candidates for the Blue America PAC to endorse.
Our main topic today deals with more hypocrisy from D'ump and his lemmings. It’s become one of the biggest issues pissing off his MAGAt followers and fracturing his support. It should. It’s Jeffrey Epstein.
For years we've been waiting for the so-called Epstein files to be released. This administration, who claims to be the most transparent ever, has said they'll be releasing everything to the public. The unqualified Trump shill posing as Attorney General, Pam Bondi, has been emphatic about it until she was emphatic that there's no there there.
Some background I promised you on today’s show:
The shit hit the fan on Monday when the Department of Justice and the FBI released a statement saying that there is no “Epstein Client List” and that no further information regarding the accused rapist/pedophile and reported former friend of Trump’s would be forthcoming.
This despite AG Bondi’s statement on Fox (not) News in February claiming that the “Epstein Client List” was at that moment on her desk.
At D’ump’s media circus posing as a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, July 8, the orange one berated a reporter for asking about Epstein when “we have Texas, we have this, we have all of the things. Wha… and are people still talking about this guy? This creep…”
And Pam Bondi then attempts to explain that when she said the client list was on her desk, that’s not what she meant. Right…
Of course, Trump called Epstein “this creep.” But in an interview with author Michael Wolff, detailed by The Daily Beast in a paywalled article in November of 2024, but entered into the House record (so you can read it here), Epstein says Trump was his “best friend” and gave many details of their years-long friendship and escapades.
Filmmaker Don Winslow posted this on Xitter:
As for Trump being implicated as having participated with Epstein in the “forcible rape” of a then-13 year-old girl at one of the creep’s parties, here are a couple of articles to read:
* From Courthouse News Service 9/30/2016 “Rape Allegations Refiled Against Trump”
* From Politico 11/4/2016 “Woman suing Trump over alleged teen rape drops suit, again” No reason was given for the abruptly dropped suit (for the second time), but the attorney who canceled the scheduled press conference “said Trump’s accuser had received threats and was too frightened to show up.”
That’s not proof of anything, but it’s related information nonetheless…
