FBI helped Trump coverup Epstein | Major NEW Details
FULL TRANSCRIPT
Um, President Trump directing Pam Bondi
to unseal grand jury transcripts in the
Epstein prosecution, which which brings
around a lot of questions like when do
we ever see grand jury testimony being
revealed to the public? How does this
work and what would this entail?
>> It's really rare because remember it's
an unopposed hearing. The Epstein drama
keeps evolving with now FBI agents,
according to CNBC, apparently being told
to quote flag any Epstein records that
mentioned Donald Trump. This is per
Senator Durban, Rich Durban. Take a look
at this. FBI agents assigned earlier
this year to review investigative files
in the criminal case against Jeffrey
Epstein were instructed to flag any
documents that mentioned Trump. Now Dur
Democrat sent the Justice Department and
the FBI letters seek asking them to
explain the discrepancies regarding the
handling of the Epstein files and the
findings from the July 7th Department of
Justice memorandum. Mind you also that
Republicans in Congress have both in the
House and the Senate now blocked
attempts by Democrats to release the
Epstein files. Donald Trump responds and
says, "Well, if there was something bad
in the files, they would have released
these files a long time ago." Of course,
to that people say the Epstein files
just have bad things on both Democrats
and Republicans, and nobody secretly
wants them out, and maybe Democrats are
just putting on a show saying that they
want these files to come out. Obviously,
yesterday we heard Donald Trump suggest
that, hey, don't worry. You know what?
Based on the ridiculous amount of
publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein. I
have asked Pam Bondi to produce any and
all pertinent grand jury testimony
subject to court approval. This is a
scam perpetuated by Democrats. I, you
know, minutes afterwards tweeted, you
should follow me on X, by the way, at
Real Me Kevin. minutes afterwards
tweeted, "Trump knows that judges
regularly deny releasing grand jury
evidence to protect victims. This is a
4D chess move by Donald Trump. He's good
at this. And he could basically in the
future say, "I asked them to release
everything and they said no." It now
puts the pressure on the judge, takes it
off of Donald Trump. It's a brilliant
move. Now, why do we usually not get
grand jury evidence? You usually don't
get grand jury evidence because it's
really just a one-sided argument to try
to convince a group of people, a group
of your peers, that there's enough
evidence to actually bring an indictment
or to bring charges against a person for
a crime. It's not a traditional court
proceeding. Now, uh what we would think
of with like a jury, let's say, and sort
of a decision in terms of whether or not
somebody's guilty or not. You also
generally wouldn't get information on a
potential co-conspirator like Trump. you
typically only get information on the
person that has crimes alleged against
them and then you potentially run the
risk of revealing victim information.
Now, Donald Trump says he is going to
sue the Wall Street Journal for the
release of this uh discussion yesterday
or talk yesterday that the Wall Street
Journal has some form of birthday letter
that went to Jeffrey Epstein with him
signing his signature in the form of
pubic hair on the image of a girl with,
you know, doodles of a girl with uh
with, you know, drawn basically with
Sharpie or some kind of thick black
marker. uh as a birthday wish to Jeffrey
Epstein. Donald Trump denies that he
ever doodled or drew uh any images uh
regarding Donald Trump. Though it's
worth noting that Donald Trump
repeatedly, even in some of his books
like Never Give Up, has told us that
hey, I could draw a drawing in 15
minutes and then I can sell it and make
money. And here are many doodles of
Donald Trump using marker to sign
drawings that he made to sell or for
charity or for whatever purposes. In
fact, here is the excerpt from the book
Never Give Up. It takes me a few minutes
to draw something. In my case, it's
usually a building or cityscape of
skyscrapers and then sign my name. But
it raises hundred it raises thousands of
dollars to help the hungry in New York,
which is great again either for charity
or other purposes. But Donald Trump
actually does have quite a bit of a
history of using the marker to sign
things. Uh not only uh letters
potentially for uh charity or drawings
for charity purposes, but also take a
look at this. This individual suggests
that here is a letter uh that I own that
Donald Trump apparently signed. It was a
letter to Hillary Clinton in 2000,
November 10th, 2000. Congratulations on
your well-deserved victory. I know you
will do a great job in Washington. And
you can see Donald Trump's signature
with the marker, the Trump Organization
seal and lettering. Great going
underline underline. And here you have
that Trump Organization seal. Obviously,
a lot of the stuff,
who knows what's real, what's fake
anymore, but this idea that the FBI
potentially is going through
scraping what mentions Donald Trump,
probably directed by Cash Patel, you
know, a Trump nominee or deputy director
Dan Bonino
doesn't look good. And this is again why
Americans are frustrated thinking
there's a two-tiered criminal justice
system. Now, Donald Trump throws around
his weight to argue that, hey, well, if
you end up uh releasing this
information, Mr. Murdoch, the owner of
uh the Wall Street Journal, then I'm
going to quote unquote sue your ass off.
Uh well, I mean, you could literally see
that here. Wall Street Journal printed a
fake letter supposedly to Epstein. These
are not my words, not the way I talk.
Mind you, this is also what MAGA circles
are alleging now. A lot of MAGA circles
are now all unifying unifying around the
same argument that well this is not how
Trump talks. Everybody's echoing this
now. JD Vance, even Elon Musk. To me, it
almost said Charlie Kirk. It seems like
they all got a phone call like let's all
say that this isn't this doesn't sound
like Trump. And the more we say it, the
more it'll sound like we're united.
They're trying to get united here. Now,
who knows? Maybe that's wrong, maybe
not. But suing the Wall Street Journal
is going to be really hard. And I think
this is why the Wall Street Journal went
ahead and published a story anyway
because even though Donald Trump says he
told Rupert Murdoch it was a scam, he
even in an earlier post on Truth Social
says that uh not only did he say it was
a scam, but he alleges that Rupert
Murdoch said he would take care of it.
Obviously, Roupert didn't have the power
to do so. kind of trying to water down
the power of uh Murdoch at the Wall
Street Journal arguing that he's not
even in control of his own paper. Uh
that these rogue editors are going off
and as a result now he's going to sue
all of them. On top of that, Donald
Trump makes the argument that I look
forward to getting Rupert Murdoch to
testify in my lawsuit against him in his
pile of garbage newspaper, the Wall
Street Journal. This will be an
interesting experience. Something to
know though is the press has severe
privileges in protecting their sources
as long as that information is
potentially accessible through a
different method. There are also really
strong antislap provisions in law that
protect the basically freedom of the
press. So look at this. The Wall Street
Journal is headquartered in New York.
New York has very strong anti-slap
provisions. And slap provisions are
basically ways for if a newspaper is
sued or even a public commenter is sued,
like a YouTuber or whatever, you could
potentially sue back with a an anti-SLAP
lawsuit saying you can't sue me to
silence me or intimidate me into
silence. that could not only shift
attorney fee burdens to Trump, but it
could be really hard for Donald Trump to
overcome unless he can prove that his
lawsuit will win against the Wall Street
Journal. The problem is in order to
prove that you could win in a lawsuit
against the Wall Street Journal, you're
going to have to break reporters
privilege. Reporter privilege, also
known as journalistic privilege, is
basically something that's held in the
first amendment for the right to free
press that journalists are not required
to disclose non or are not required to
disclose really any material whether
it's confidential or non-confidential.
In other words, they don't have to
reveal their sources. Now, they only
have to reveal their sources in very
rare circumstances, such as in this 1972
case where Brazenberg versus Hayes or in
a more recent case of Judith Miller from
the early 2000s. These cases happen
maybe every 20 years where a journalist
is forced to give up their sources. And
it usually only happens when there's
some question of uh a potential leaker
at the federal government, some kind of
potential ongoing threat to public
safety because there's some ongoing
critical information that by the
reporter not providing this information,
they're potentially creating a public
safety risk. And the government is not
able to obtain that information from any
other alternative source alternative. So
in other words, if the Wall Street
Journal can argue, hey, you can get this
drawing from Maxwell herself or from the
binder itself, which is, you know,
located here, there, or whatever, the
Wall Street Journal doesn't have to say
where they got a copy of it from. The
Wall Street Journal can protect their
source because the actual letter could
be obtainable from an alternate source
which would then protect the
journalistic privilege of the Wall
Street Journal and their source. Now,
this is leading people on social media
to say, "Oh, the Wall Street Journal was
sitting on this information for years.
Why they didn't re why didn't they
release it earlier?" To this, people say
the Wall Street Journal may have just
obtained the information. But it's very
difficult to pierce uh this journalistic
privilege because you don't want to
chill freedom of the press which mind
you is not just to protect newspapers
but is also to protect independent
journalists in my opinion like myself.
Uh so that like if you had let's say
dirt on Donald Trump and you sent me
something that we could verify like
where you worked or where you lived or
whatever or you had dirt on Gavin
Newsome. I don't like Gavin Newsome,
right? and we can verify where you work
and how you might have access to
intelligence and what you provide looks
verifiable and legitimate. You know, we
could report and go, "Hey, we got this
from an anonymous source
that says this." You're putting that
information out there. What you're
really doing is you're saying, "Hey,
this is for the public to decide, is
this true or not?" That's why Donald
Trump and sort of the MAGA circles are
going, "Well, this doesn't sound like
Trump." Because actually the best
defense is just placing doubt in the
public that this is real. Because
actually suing the Wall Street Journal
is probably just going to lead to an
anti-Slap lawsuit against Trump. The
problem is Trump is also the president
and usually when businesses get involved
in a fight with the president, they
lose. So businesses usually don't win
when they fight the president. However,
the fact that the Wall Street Journal
likely already 40 chess played this out
suggests that maybe the Wall Street
Journal has even more where this came
from. And now this FBI rumor mill
doesn't look good either. Obviously,
this is coming from a Democratic
allegation, Senator Dick Durban. Uh, so
it could also just be a game of politics
here. The senator's description of the
instructions given to FBI agents
regarding mentions of Trump's names was
made in a letter to Bonino. According to
information my office received, the FBI
was pressured to put approximately 1,000
personnel in its information management
division on 24-hour shifts to review
100,000 Epstein related records in order
to produce more documents that could be
released on an arbitrarily short
deadline. This effort, which reportedly
took place from March 14th through the
end of March, was haphazardly
supplemented by hundreds of FBI field
office personnel, many who lacked the
expertise to identify statul
statutoilally protected information
regarding child victims and child
witnesses to properly handle FOYA
Freedom of Information Act requests. My
office were told that the personnel were
instructed to flag any records in which
Donald Trump was mentioned.
The story unfortunately sounds very
evolutionarily. All right, somebody in
the comments here, uh, it really doesn't
sound like today's Trump. Well, but then
again, that letter was written 20 years
ago, right? Potentially even more than
20 years ago at this point. Uh, so I
mean, people do change over time, right?
Uh that said, also it is very
interesting to see how much aggression
there is from Trump. If this was just
another fake news story, why is Donald
Trump so keen on potentially risking an
anti-SLAP lawsuit against him
for trying to silence the Wall Street
Journal? In fact, I would make the
argument that Donald Trump's message on
uh uh Truth Social actually plays
towards the Wall Street Journal's hand.
Take a look at this. Donald Trump very
clearly says right here that the Wall
Street Journal were warned directly by
President Trump that the supposed letter
they printed was fake and if they
printed it, they will be sued. In other
words, Donald Trump himself, like a
lawyer would never say this, Donald
Trump himself is arguing, "Yeah, we
threatened to sue them if they released
it." That's a form of trying to silence
the press. Now, again, you'd have to
prove that it's false because ultimately
the best defense is the truth. And if
in, you know, private redacted manners
through a lawsuit, the Wall Street
Journal is able to go, look, here's what
we got. We're not going to reveal from
whom it is, but here's what we got, and
it is true information.
Wall Street Journal has a really strong
case against Donald Trump. And I think
that's why they had the coonas, so to
speak, to get into this fight with
Donald Trump because really what it does
is draw business for media eyeballs
classic uh for the Wall Street Journal.
So it it kind of like you could see the
arguments on both sides. I don't think
this one is as clearcut as people make
