Starting point is 00:00:02 All right, we got some breaking news as the Epstein file drama comes to a head. Donald Trump has posted something online where he is now in support of the release of the Epstein files, but there is a problem in what he said. And Donald Trump here, too, he's caught himself in quite a bind because he was asked about this earlier today a couple hours ago, and he keeps calling this a hoax. So on one hand, it's a hoax. When the second hand, release the hoax, it doesn't make sense. So we're going to go through all of it.
Starting point is 00:00:36 First, here is Donald Trump talking about, being asked about the Epstein files being released. I don't want to talk about it because fake news like you, you're a terrible reporter. And fake news like you, they just keep bringing that up to deflect from the tremendous success of the Trump administration. So a guy like Massey, his poll numbers are showing is at 6% approval rating right now. and we call him Rand Paul Jr. because he never votes for the Republican Party. So they're using Jeffrey Epstein as a deflection from the tremendous success that we're having as a party. Yeah, Marjorie Taylor Green and Thomas Massey are using the Epstein file as a distraction. Nancy Mason and Lauren Bulbord are using the Epstein file as a distraction.
Starting point is 00:01:34 It doesn't make sense. And that is why Donald Trump, later on, that day, like an hour later said, as soon as I said on Friday night, aboard Air Force One to the fake news media, House Republicans should vote to release the Oaksin Files. Now, he never said that. That's a lie. He never said it. He's been fighting tooth and nail for these files to not come out. You know that. I know that. That is a lie. Because we have nothing to hide. And it's time to move on from this Democrat hoax perpetrated by radical left lunatics in order to deflect from the great success of the Republican Party, including our recent victory on the Democratic shutdown, the Department
Starting point is 00:02:13 of Justice has already turned over tens of thousands of pages to the public on Epstein, are looking at various Democratic operatives, Bill Clinton, Reed Hoffman, Larry Summers, et cetera, and the relationship to Epstein. And the House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to. Now, more on that in just a moment. I don't care. All in all caps, I don't care. All I care about is, and then he goes into a bunch of nons, sense here. And then it goes on to say, nobody cared about Jeffrey Epstein when he was alive. And if Democrats had anything, they would have released it before a landslide election victory. Well, a couple of things about this.
Starting point is 00:02:50 One, great. I'm glad he's saying this. The reason why he's saying this now is because he knows he's going to lose. That there is going to be a watershed moment where Republicans were going to vote against him. He doesn't want these out there. And so he said, well, if I can't fight them, I'm going to join them and make it look like everything's fine. Two, I'm wondering if you're wondering what I'm wondering. I'm wondering if you're wondering if you're wondering if you're wondering if you're if you don't remember if do you think Donald Trump or the Department of Justice has done something with these files could very well be.
Starting point is 00:03:22 I wouldn't put it past them. That's for sure. I wouldn't put it past them. Maybe they're putting stuff in the files that weren't previously there. I don't think they had a time to take out Donald Trump's name for every single file. But perhaps they're, I don't know, clearing away the best stuff. I actually am not sure. Or they could be adding things.
Starting point is 00:03:40 They could be placing evidence. Now, I think this is also an appointment of point. 2. House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to. As Brett Mazzilus? I never say your name right, Brett. Brett Maisalus? Mizzolus.
Starting point is 00:04:00 We're like good friends, too. The key phrase here is whatever they are legally entitled to, Trump ordered the DOJ to launch an investigation into Epstein's ties to Democrat so he can claim that large portions of the files now can't be released due to an active investigation into a manufactured loophole to block anything he wants. There you go. Now, another person put this into context, too, the White House reading the writing on the wall and supporting a bill that's clearly going to pass isn't new. See Biden with a D.C. crime bill and Trump with Russia sanctions, but Trump's saving face on the Epstein has a practical effect, and this is an important question. How does the Senate not vote and how
Starting point is 00:04:41 does he not sign? I don't think Matt is putting into the full context of like what Brett just said, which is again, Donald Trump is going to decide what isn't isn't released. Donald Trump could right now he's shown that he's controls the Department of Justice. He could right now have them release. Like he's done with Amelia Earhart, he with MLK Jr., he's done with JFK files. He could do that right now. Why is he not? Why is he not? Now, Donald Trump also went after Marjorie Taylor Green moments later. This is not over. He said, wacky Marjorie trader Brown. Remember, Green turns to Brown where there is rot involved. Really just is not as funny as it used to be. Is working overtime to try and portray herself as a victim when in actuality she is a cause of all of her own problems. The fact is nobody cares about this traitor to our country. Okay. Okay. And now I have a question too,
Starting point is 00:05:36 Because before Donald Trump made this announcement, there are a lot of Democrats who went on TV. They're not Democrats, sorry, there are a lot of Republicans who went on TV. Republicans who posted that the Epstein files were a hoax. And here's Congressman Troy E. Nell saying, I'll be voting no on the Epstein hoax. The Democrats are using the obscene hoax to distract us from winning a President Trump administration. My message to my Republican colleagues, don't let this noise keep us from delivering on the mandate. the American people gave us. President Trump, I stand by you in the fight to save America. So now my question is, is this freak going to vote for the Epstein hoax to be released?
Starting point is 00:06:18 And that's the thing that they really like tied themselves into a knot here, that this is a hoax. But it's not a hoax because there's some Democrats involved and that's real. But Pam Bondi said there was no other charges of people pursued. So there's no need to release them. but then there are actually charges that he pursued. At the same time, there's no wrongdoing, and Donald Trump doesn't think that these files have any meaning whatsoever. I think that, did I state that correctly?
Starting point is 00:06:51 Now, we also had a Republican who went on TV and said he would not vote for the Epstein files to be released. If the Epstein measure passes the House, will it get a vote in the Senate? It'll come to the Senate. We'll take a look at it. If it passes the House, we'll see what it says. We all want accountability and transparency. But to me, this is not about truth.
Starting point is 00:07:17 It's not about justice. This is about an attempt by the Democrats to make President Trump a lame duck president, and I'm not going to aid and abet them in their efforts to do that. But you don't commit to a vote, Senator? You don't commit to holding a vote if the Epstein measure passes in the House? Just very quickly. We're almost out of time.
Starting point is 00:07:34 Well, what I've said, what Senate leader Thune has said is, we'll look at it, we'll look at what's come over. I don't even know that it's going to pass the House. The Senate will make it. Well, let's pass in the House, bitch. What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Daddy says it's okay. You're going to do what Daddy says?
Starting point is 00:07:51 You're going to do what Daddy says? Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. And Donald Trump was also randomly asked about Nick Fuentes, and he really didn't say anything bad about him, which is not surprising. So Donald Trump also Donald what is going on in the hair a little swoop a little swoop today Giving us a little bit of Greece Action With Nick Quentes at Maralago a few years ago
Starting point is 00:08:16 What role could he play in the conservative movement? Well I didn't know he was coming and he was with as you know somebody Kanye And Kanye yesterday could have dinner and he brought Nick I didn't know Nick at the time And he did he came along with a few other people we brought a few people with them. Meeting people, talking to people
Starting point is 00:08:38 for somebody like Tucker, that's what they do. You know, people are controversial. Some are, some are, some aren't. Yeah, some people are controversial. Some people hold Nazi views. I think, I think some people you just don't have to talk to.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Don't have to meet with. All right, well, that's, certainly this thing is escalating, isn't it? Isn't it? Donald Trump now wants the files to be released after months of fighting them from being released. He had Lauren Bobert come into the situation room because there was a situation, the Epstein files. And now he wants them released. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Okay. Sure. Why not? Sounds good to me. Let's see what happens tomorrow. I bumped another video that will be coming out later tonight just so you know to do this one first. So that'll be out in a couple of hours and look out for that and I'll see you soon.
