@repmcgovern.bsky.social

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

James Comer is bringing Hillary Clinton before his committee to testify about Epstein despite having zero contact with him, but not Epstein’s neighbor Howard Lutnick who lied about his connections to Epstein over many years which is proven in the files.

The Tennessee Holler

@thetnholler.bsky.social

CNN’s @kaitlancollins.bsky.social : “What would you say to the Epstein survivors?”

TRUMP: “You are so bad… You are the worst reporter... I’ve never seen you smile.”

A terrible human. Makes so much sense that he and Epstein were tight.

(And the other reporters say nothing. Cowards, all.)

While vetting the Epstein files, the FBI created a list of prominent names mentioned in the documents—and they noted which people had "salacious information" about them in the records. Trump was on the "salacious" list. Bill Clinton was not.

@dieworkwear.bsky.social

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

Democrats say Republicans set a new precedent with subpoenas, after Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed to testify about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

"We are absolutely going to have Donald Trump testify under oath" if Democrats take back power, Rep. Ted Lieu says.

After Republicans push Clintons to testify on Epstein, Democrats warn they'll haul in Trump

Democrats say Republicans set a new precedent with subpoenas of an ex-president and first lady. "We will follow it ... Donald Trump, all of his kids. Everybody," Rep. Maxwell Frost said.
