For those questioning whether Donald Trump is in the Epstein files, the answer was given long ago.
Yes, the president is in the files, and his own administration provided that information back in February when Attorney General Pam Bondi released the “Epstein Files: Phase I.”
While that release was a dud, featuring mostly redacted information and things that had already been reported, Trump’s name was there.
You can review the files on the justice department’s website, here.
Trump is listed on the flight logs a total of seven times.
Also, previously reported to be on the Epstein flight logs,
per Newsweek
, were the likes of former president Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew of England, Naomi Campbell, David Copperfield, Leonardo DiCaprio, Cameron Diaz, former vice president Al Gore, Stephen Hawking and Bruce Willis.
PEOPLE said Trump was listed
on page 24 of the first flight log which
was dated Oct. 11, 1993,
and twice more on page 27 with at the time, Marla Maples, daughter Tiffany Trump and a nanny on May 15, 1994.
PEOPLE said three of the dates
that Trump was on the flight logs also had Epstein’s initials on them as well. Ghislaine Maxwell, the site said, had her initials listed on an Oct. 1993 flight along with Trump.
To be clear, flying on Epstein’s plane does not mean the president or any of those celebrities committed a crime.
Trump has drawn criticism across the past two weeks after his administration announced that there was no Epstein client list to release.
And, on Thursday, he took to Truth Social to give Bondi a new directive.
“Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval,” Trump wrote. “This SCAM, perpetuated by the Democrats, should end, right now!”
Bondi replied on X, sharing a screen shot of Trump’s post and writing, “President Trump — we are ready to move the court tomorrow to unseal the grand just transcripts.”
That came a day after the president lashed out at his supporters for continuing to ask to see the Epstein files.
“The Radical Left Democrats have hit pay dirt, again!” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Just like with the FAKE and fully discredited Steele Dossier, the lying 51 ‘intelligence’ Agents, the Laptop from Hell, which the Dems swore had come from Russia (No, it came from Hunter Biden’s bathroom!), and even the Russia, Russia, Russia, scam itself, a totally fake and made up story used in order to hide Crooked Hillar Clinton’s big loss in the 2016 Presidential Election, these scams and Hoaxes are all the Democrats are good at — It’s all they have — They are no good at governing, no good at policy, and no good at picking winning candidates.
“Also, unlike Republicans, they stick together like glue,” he continued. “Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this ‘bullshit,’ hook, line, and sinker. They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years.”
Trump was not through.
“I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax,” he wrote. “Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking about our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore! Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
It was Trump’s administration and Bondi who made a spectacle of the release of part of the files in February, inviting MAGA social media influencers into the White House and handing them binders before posing for a photo opp.
Also in February, Bondi was asked about the Epstein client list while on Fox, and she said, “It’s sitting on my desk right now to review. That’s been a directive form President Trump. I’m reviewing that.”
But Bondi reversed course last week, with Trump by her side, and said there would be no client list release. And, after MAGA, which had been promised for months that heads would roll when the files were released, began to call for her to be fired, Trump first lashed out over the weekend.
“What’s going on with my ‘boys’ and, in some cases, ‘gals?’” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “They’re all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s happening. We have a PERFECT Administration, THE TALK OF THE WORLD, and ‘selfish people’ are trying to hurt it, all over a guy who never dies, Jeffrey Epstein.
“For years, it’s Epstein, over and over again,” he continued. “Why are we giving publicity to files written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration, who conned the World with the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, 51 ‘Intelligence’ Agents, ‘THE LAPTOP FROM HELL,’ and More? They created the Epstein Files, just like they created the FAKE Hillary Clinton/Christopher Steele Dossier that they used on me, and now my so-called ‘friends’ are playing right into their hands.
“Why didn’t these Radical Left Lunatics release the Epstein Files?” he continued. “If there was ANYTHING in there that could have hurt the MAGA Movement, why didn’t they use it? They haven’t even given up on the John F. Kennedy or Martin Luther King Jr. Files. No matter how much success we have had, securing the Border, deporting Criminals, fixing the Economy, Energy Dominance, a Safer World where Iran will not have Nuclear Weapons, it’s never enough for some people. WE are about to achieve more in 6 months than any other Administration has achieved in over 100 years, and we have so much more to do.
“We are saving our Country and, MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, which will continue to be our complete PRIORITY,” he continued. “The Left is imploding! Kash Patel, and the FBI, must be focused on investigating Voter Fraud, Political Corruption, ActBlue, The Rigged and Stolen Election of 2020, and arresting Thugs and Criminals, instead of spending month after month looking at nothing but the same old, RADICAL LEFT inspired Documents on Jeffrey Epstein. LET PAM BONDI DO HERE JOB — SHE’S GREAT. The 2020 Election was Rigged and Stolen, and they tried to the same thing in 2024. That’s what she is looking into as AG, and much more.
“One year ago our Country was DEAD, now it’s the ‘HOTTEST’ Country anywhere in the World. Let’s keep it that way, and not waste Time and Energy on Jeffrey Epstein, somebody that nobody cares about.”
