Trump Demands DOJ & FBI Probe Into Bill Clinton's Epstein Ties Amid Political Firestorm
Former US President Donald Trump has publicly announced his intention to direct the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI to launch an investigation into prominent figures allegedly connected to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Among those specifically named by Trump are former President Bill Clinton, economist Larry Summers, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, and financial institutions J.P. Morgan and Chase.
Trump's declaration, made via a Truth Social post on Friday, frames this initiative as a counter-move against Democrats whom he accuses of using the "Epstein Hoax" to deflect from their perceived failures, including a government shutdown.
Trump's Allegations and Call for Investigation
Trump's statement suggests that records indicate these individuals and entities spent considerable time with Epstein, including on his infamous private island. He likened the situation to a "Russia, Russia, Russia Scam," implying that the allegations primarily target Democrats. He vowed that Attorney General Pam Bondi and the FBI would thoroughly investigate these connections to uncover the truth.
Epstein's Past Statements Regarding Trump
The former president's call for a probe comes amidst renewed scrutiny of the Epstein scandal, particularly after the House Oversight Committee released a series of emails involving Epstein. These emails shed light on Epstein's perspective regarding Trump's past. In a 2018 exchange, Epstein notably claimed, "I know how dirty donald is," and in another message that year, he asserted, "its wild. because I am the one able to take him down." Further emails, including one to author Michael Wolff in April, suggest Epstein believed Trump "knew about the girls."
Another significant email, dated 2011 and addressed to Ghislaine Maxwell, revealed Epstein's observation: "I want you to realize that the dog that hasn’t barked is trump." He also referenced a victim who allegedly "spent hours at my house with" Trump, yet, according to Epstein, Trump had "never once been mentioned." Trump has consistently denied any knowledge of Epstein's abuse of underage girls, stating their relationship ended in the early 2000s.
Wider Political and Legal Implications
This development also coincides with an impending House vote on whether to compel the release of long-withheld federal files related to Epstein. The Justice Department has resisted making these files public despite previous assurances from officials, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, adding another layer of political tension to the ongoing saga.
