Donny’s feeling the heat. Keep the fire going. Let’s make 2026 the year of accountability

President Donald Trump has called on the Justice Department to release the names of all Democrats tied to Jeffrey Epstein, as he called the controversy over the so-called Epstein files a “witch hunt” and a “Democrat inspired hoax.”

“Now 1,000,000 more pages on Epstein are found. DOJ is being forced to spend all of its time on this Democrat inspired Hoax,” Trump wrote Friday on Truth Social.

“When do they say NO MORE, and work on Election Fraud etc. The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans. Release all of their names, embarrass them, and get back to helping our Country! The Radical Left doesn’t want people talking about TRUMP & REPUBLICAN SUCCESS, only a long ago dead Jeffrey Epstein - Just another Witch Hunt,” he added.

I wonder why he would demand only democrat names would be revealed. Seems awfully odd to turn this into a party thing, when everyone should want to clear their parties of pedophiles...

Right?

Right.

I get this odd feeling that this Trump guy might not be on the up and up 🤣

I seem to remember Trump nominally being a Democrat when the crimes were committed.

Wouldn't matter what he's asking for is removal of the politically exposed person redactions they've been doing. Remove them for dems and they have no legal argument to withhold for anyone else for the same reason.
