  1. Only if they release every elite involved. You don’t just get to single out one guy in this while the others hide in plain sight

  2. He needs to phrase it that the media will get an insane number of ad views.

  3. > Lieu is a member of Congress who doesn’t need to rely on dubious social media posts for his information — especially if he’s going to make a statement like this. Trump wasn’t mentioned in the latest batch of Epstein documents. He was barely mentioned in the earlier batches. Rest assured — if Trump were prominently mentioned, it would have been a huge story.

  4. Why would they do that? The media wants Trump to win. Tax breaks anyone?

  6. They would if Biden raised the issue. He won’t so they don’t care either.

  7. MAGA: “But… but… he’s a flawed vessel according to scripture!”

  9. Trump flew on Epsteins plane traveling between NYC and Florida several times.

    Bill Clinton was on Epsteins plane 26 times, with at least 5 of those rides being without secret service, which seems pretty odd.

  12. There’s speculation that this is why yesterday’s shooter went after Trump. If that’s true, then Trump’s connection to Epstein and the rape accusations against Trump by a minor are about to blow up bigly.

  13. Seeing as it’s beginning to look like the motive behind the attempted assassination yesterday was Trump’s connections to Epstein, the media may have no choice but to report on his name showing up multiple times in the documents released recently.

  14. This is the right thing to do in the aftermath of the assassination attempt. Probe the actual reason for the shooting.

  15. I think everyone is urging the media to dig deeper into the Epstein files…. Might fight out why people are shooting at Trump.

  16. YES! I am sick and tired of doing the media’s job of informing the public that trump is mentioned over 60 times in the Epstein files for raping children. 

  17. Absolutely. We don’t want a child rapist in the Oval Office

  18. Crazy that a headline “Trump is a pedophile” doesn’t even get clicks anymore!

  20. And Bill Clinton too…No need to be biased when investigating these issues.

  21. I’m pretty sure the media is actively working on this.I mean why wouldn’t they? It’s $$$ if they find a link.

  24. Rep. Ted Lieu shows the media’s cover-up of trump-Epstein ties.

  25. apparently there wasn’t anything new in the recently released files, but what still remains true is that they were good friends, that Trump allowed the use of his properties like Mar-A-Lago for Epstein’s events, that Trump complimented the average age of females at Epstein’s parties, that Trump flew on the Lolita Express at least 7 times as confirmed by FAA flight logs, that Trump wished Ghislaine Maxwell “well” after she got indicted, that Trump hired Alex Acosta as Secretary of Labor (Alex Acosta was a US attorney who granted Jeffrey Epstein immunity from federal prosecution in 2008 in a plea deal) then while in office Acosta proposed 80% funding cuts for the government agency that combats child sex trafficking

    people should probably stop posting that one lawsuit because then it provides the opportunity for conservatives to hand-wave it away and act like theres nothing else there when there is plenty.

  27. I just don’t think anyone really wants to touch this. It’s too politically scary and there’s still way too many unarmed people. A lot of the people already named are the who’s who and legitimately going after them may cause more names to come out which would be good to know but could also cause way more problems.

  28. He has more access to the information than the “media” does. Why doesn’t he find the information and release it. How does the media “dig” for things anyway?

  31. Just have the FBI release their files. Biden can do, and SCOTUS says there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

  34. Did the Republican shooter own a “kill your local pedo” shirt?

    I’m just asking questions

  35. The democratic nominee needs to hammer on this too.

    Biden has been mentioning the Jean Carroll case, but I doubt he’ll talk about Epstein. Kamala or Gretchen on the other hand would have nothing holding them back.

  36. Didnt we already do this when the jane doe brought the case to the court, but it became a he said she said thing with little to no evidence thus the jane doe took it back?

  38. Wow, a Californian Democrat is doing this? Doesn’t he have enough names on the list from his state that should be investigated? We already know Trump is on the list… it is almost like he is doing it more for attention than the people.

  39. They say the kid shooter found out about Epstein and trump recirculating in the news and became unhinged. If this is the case, I would assume he is a rape victim himself

  41. I’m so tired of all this. Only invested when it suits your party. I’d love to see everyone on the Epstein list dealt with. Not just ones that are politically convenient

  42. Can someone here tell me why Biden doesn’t just order all files released?

  44. Conveniently orange pedo gets shot on the ear.
