Epstein Files Drop-Media Bias Sets in Despite Clinton Photographic Proof of Association

• Epstein File Release

  • The files include photos of former President Bill Clinton in compromising contexts:
    • On Epstein’s private plane with unidentified individuals.
    • In a pool with Ghislaine Maxwell and other women (faces redacted).
    • In a hot tub with a redacted woman.
  • The commentary argues that if these were photos of Donald Trump, media coverage would be relentless, but Clinton’s involvement is being downplayed.

• Media and Political Bias

  • The author claims mainstream media and Democrats are minimizing Clinton’s ties to Epstein while previously weaponizing the Epstein case against Trump.
  • Suggests hypocrisy: Democrats demanded accountability for Trump without evidence, but now dismiss Clinton despite photographic proof of association.

• Legal and Investigative Angle

  • Notes that the presence of photos does not prove criminal wrongdoing.
  • Mentions statements from legal experts and fact-checkers emphasizing no direct evidence of crimes by Clinton.
  • References Todd Blanche’s comments on Meet the Press, where he refused to confirm or deny an ongoing investigation into Clinton.

• Historical Context

  • Recalls Clinton’s documented flights on Epstein’s private jet, visits to the White House by Epstein, and social interactions spanning the 1990s and early 2000s.
  • Highlights Clinton’s past scandals (e.g., Monica Lewinsky) to question credibility.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
But does Clinton owe the public an explanation about his
relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaker 2 (00:08):

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Story number one.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
The Epstein files, they're being released, and there are pictures
that are pretty damning. They're not pictures of President Donald
Trump that are damning. They're pictures of a former President
of the United States of America, Bill Clinton. Pictures that
if they were of Donald Trump, the world would stop.

(03:39):
Everyone would be freaking out, and it would be twenty
four to seven. Wall to wall news coverage, special reports,
investigative reporters, would be working non stop without sleep. There
would be breaking news, There would be constant questions about
is Donald Trump going to go to jail? But the
pictures are odd of Donald Trump, the pictures of our

(04:03):
former president Bill Clinton. Todd Blanche was on Meet the Press,
and I want you to hear what he had to
say about the investigation, and did Jeffrey Epstein and also
Bill Clinton after what has come out this.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Week President Bill Clinton. Of course, a number of photos
of President Clinton were released Friday, a Clinton spokesperson saying
the White House hasn't been hiding these files for months,
only to dump them late on a Friday to protect
Bill Clinton. This is about shielding themselves from what comes
next or from what they'll try and hide forever. Let
Musky bluntly, is President Clinton under investion?

Speaker 5 (04:41):
I will never talk about ongoing criminal investigation. So I'm
not going to answer that question. But let me address
the second part of the quote that you just gave us.
Think about how patently absurd that position is, the idea
that we have hundreds and hundreds of DJ lawyers. These
are not politicals. It's not me, it's not trensonal Bondy
looking at all, of these files and determining whether they

(05:03):
are responsive to the Act, and we overcollected, by the way.
We went out to all of our components and we said,
give us any document that you think, in any way,
shape or form is connected to the Epstein case. And
that's what we're going through. So the idea that we
are hiding something or there's something that we have hidden
under a rock around President Trump for other Republicans is
not only false, but it's obviously false for anybody that's

(05:27):
intelligent enough to think about what we're doing.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
You listen to the question there and his plans described
it right. He's answering it. Bill Clinton is under investigation
connection with Jeffrey Epstein. He said, I will never talk
about ongoing criminal investigation, so I'm not going to answer
that question. But let me address the second part of
the quote that you just gave us, and he went
on to talk about the DODA and the politics involved here.

(05:52):
I want you to imagine for a moment that what
I'm about to describe you as Donald Trump, I want
you to imagine if there were images of him on
Epstein's private playing with unidentified people. By the way, that's
exactly what we have on Bill Clinton. I want you
to imagine if a photo of Bill Clinton in a
pool with Epstein's associate Maxwell, the woman, the madam, the

(06:13):
sex trafficker, and Epstein's a long time associate with other
women in the pool faces were also redacted, if that
would have been Donald Trump, can you imagine? Or how
about the hot tub photo of Bill Clinton in a
hot tub with a redacted woman? Can you imagine what
the media would be doing right now? Now? Of course,

(06:36):
we must state the obvious. The file doesn't mean wrongdoing
has been proven. Legal experts and news outlets it were
falling over themselves to say, these are just documents and photos.
They don't imply any criminal conduct by Clinton, but should
there be an investigation? News reports note that Trump's name
is not anywhere close to what had been described beforehand,

(07:00):
right is prominent in these files? It's not there. But
what is there is something that they don't want to
talk about, and that is a former Democratic president, Bill Clinton,
who is all throughout the Epstein files. Clinton spokesperson says
the focus on him is quote political scapegoating. So now
he's playing the victim instead of protecting the women that

(07:22):
were abused by Epstein that the White House is using
the images they say for partisan purposes. The spokesman also
pointed out that Clinton severed ties they claim with Epstein
long before Epstein's later crimes were widely known, which brings
us to what the Republicans should do now. House Republicans

(07:42):
James Comer, they have subpoenaed the Clintons, Bill Clinton and
Hillary Clinton to testify about their knowledge of Epstein's activities,
with threats of contempt if they refuse. I think clearly
now they should do a full court press because we
should get the answers and for law publicized records. Prior
to this release, we knew that there was extensive connections

(08:06):
between Bill Clinton and Epstein. How do we know it?
Through the flight logs, through pictures, through social events. The
list is long. There was also a timeline that we
could all go back to during the nineteen nineties all
the way through the early two thousand, Epstein visited the
White House multiple times under President Clinton. Clinton also flew,

(08:28):
we know for a fact, on Epstein's private jet at
least dozens of times. A flight records show multiple international
trips with Secret Service present or associated with those trips.
As well. Clinton, of course, has denied any knowledge of
Epstein's criminal activities and says his interactions were limited, as

(08:49):
he described it, to quote charitable or social contexts. Government,
by the way, and fact checking groups are also going
beyond saying there's no evidence of these files that show
Clinton committed a crime in relation to Epstein. Now, what
the Epstein files do not show so far is a

(09:10):
couple of things. One, there's been no criminal charges or
accusations against Clinton that have made it in a direct
connection with Jeffrey Epstein. That doesn't mean that there's not
an ongoing investigation now, which is why I played for you,
Todd Blanche a moment ago. And what we do know
is the media is doing everything they can to now
make this go away. This is one of those FAFO moments.

(09:33):
Democrats wanted this Epstein file thing to be all about
Donald Trump. And now what we find out is the
most important person these files to answer question is a
guy by the name of Bill Clinton. We also know
about Bill Clinton's past, We know about Monica Lensky. We
also know that Bill Clinton lies when it comes to stuff.
You may remember, I did not have sexual relations with
that woman that was a lie. We know that Bill

(09:55):
Clinton is saying now over and over again, there was nothing.
There's no there there, right, there's nothing here, there's nothing
to see. I didn't do anything wrong. But should there
be an investigation? And should Bill Clinton be held to
the same standard that Democrats were demanding without any of
this evidence that a guy by the name of Donald
Trump should be held to Why not hold them to

(10:16):
the same center they demanded, especially when there's actual evidence,
pictures and a long list of times that the two
spent together in hot tubs, in pools, on planes, private jets.
The list goes on and on. So watch how fast

(10:36):
they hope this story disappears over the holidays. They're hoping
that when you're with your family and your friends, that
you'll just move on from Bill Clinton being all in
the Epstein files. They're hoping that you'll look the other way.
They're hoping that you'll just say, oh, that's just Bill
Clinton being Bill Clinton and there's nothing there. Never forget

(10:57):
how they slandered and weaponized the Epstein files to try
to hurt Donald Trump. But now when there's real questions
about one of their own, they're going to walk the
other way, which brings it. The final point, was this
ever really about the Epstein victims to the media? Was
this ever really about the Epstein victims to the Democratic Party?
I think it's pretty clear the answer is no. It

(11:18):
was all about hurting Donald Trump.
