The manipulation of the Epstein files by the Trump administration to falsely implicate political rivals is not only extraordinarily malevolent — it’s also extraordinarily inept.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

You didn’t need the Epstein files to confirm:
He’s a paedophile
He’s a rapist
He’s a womaniser
He’s a disgusting individual
The evidence has been there for years.
He showed you exactly who he was.
You just wasn’t listening.
