Ladies and gentlemen, gather around for an intriguing tale that dives deep into the world of investigative journalism, politics, and the tangled web of rumors on social media.
The Left is pulling out all the stops to get Biden out of the news. Today, we unravel the latest chapter in the Jeffrey Epstein story, featuring a veteran reporter, a top House Democrat, and the wild speculation connecting Epstein to former President Donald Trump.
Julie K. Brown, a renowned investigative reporter for the Miami Herald and the author of “Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story,” has found herself at the center of a storm of misinformation. Taking to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, Brown decided enough was enough. The online buzz, fueled by social media users and a prominent House Democrat, needed to be addressed head-on.
In a fiery response to an X user criticizing the press for allegedly ignoring connections between Trump and Epstein in newly released trial documents, Brown made her stance clear. “This is FALSE,” she emphatically wrote. She went on to say, “If there was evidence in a file made public, trust me, the media would be all over it. These kinds of posts defy logic yet y’all are retweeting this propaganda.” Her words cut through the noise, aiming to set the record straight.
Adding fuel to the speculative fire was Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA), the vice chairman of the House Democratic Caucus. During a weekly House press conference, Lieu shifted focus from criticisms of President Joe Biden to Trump’s alleged connections to Epstein. “Donald Trump is sort of all over this,” Lieu claimed, despite the newly released records not highlighting any fresh details about Trump’s relationship with Epstein. He suggested, “Y’all might want to look at that because it’s highly disturbing.”
What was Lieu hinting at? His comments seemed to tie the newly released documents to the well-documented fact that Epstein had ties to many powerful individuals, including Trump, who was known to have flown on Epstein’s private jet multiple times. Lieu even pointed the press toward internet research and the trending hashtag #TrumpPedoFiles, though he refrained from naming it directly in Congress.
Julie K. Brown, clearly exasperated by the ongoing rumors, posted a follow-up message on Wednesday morning. “I’ve come to believe that the American public won’t pay for the truth,” she lamented. “They would rather believe the lies they get for free on the internet.”
As of now, Rep. Lieu has not publicly corrected his misleading statements about the connection between the newly released trial documents and Trump. The story highlights a broader issue in today’s media landscape: the battle between verified facts and viral misinformation. In a world where sensationalism often trumps reality, Brown’s efforts to uphold journalistic integrity stand as a beacon, reminding us all of the importance of seeking the truth amidst the chaos.
Then a RINO (Which, in case you weren’t sure, stands for Republican In Name Only) did this.
Republican Utah Gov. Cox says he won’t vote for Trump in upcoming election.
