Hey everyone, big news alert! U.S. President Donald Trump has fired back at reports linking his name to Jeffrey Epstein's files. During a press event in Scotland, when asked about claims that Attorney General Pam Bondi briefed him in May on his name appearing multiple times in those documents, Trump responded firmly: "No, I was never — never briefed, no." 😮
According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump was supposedly informed that his name appears in various records alongside other high-profile figures. However, Trump’s quick denial only adds more fuel to the ongoing debate. The story comes at a time when political tensions are high, and many are calling for greater transparency on the issue.
Interestingly, while a White House statement initially dismissed the report as "fake news," later comments suggested that Trump was indeed included in the files assembled for conservative influencers. This mixed messaging has stirred controversy among his supporters, with some even pressuring for the full release of the documents.
Adding to the complexity, historical records show that Trump was named in Epstein's flight logs and contact book from the 1990s, a reminder of a past association that he insists ended long before Epstein faced legal troubles. In today's digital age, news like this spreads super fast, and it's no surprise that social media is buzzing with every update!
What do you think? Is there more to this story, or does Trump’s denial settle the matter for you? Stay tuned as this saga continues to unfold.
