OPINION: Epstein: Slime Pays

[Uncle Joe]

As Congress battles over the long-suppressed “Epstein Files,” explosive revelations of money laundering, elite cover-ups, and political fallout threaten to shake Washington.

A statue depicting US President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein holding hands is seen near the US Capitol on October 2, 2025 in Washington, DC. A statue titled "Best Friends Forever" by the anonymous art collective "The Secret Handshake" was installed near the US Capitol on September 23 and removed by the National Park Service the following day.

Now Democrats and a handful of Republicans want a bill compelling the Justice Department to release every document except victims’ names. But House Speaker Mike Johnson blocks this by delaying the swearing in of Arizona’s new Democratic congresswoman, Adelita Grijalva, elected three weeks ago.

Her vote would force complete disclosure, and the standoff has united unlikely allies. The Epstein case disgusts both left and right because it exposes how easily the rich buy immunity while the powerless are punished. MAGA supporter and Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene leads the charge to release all the files and claims she’s received death threats. “This is not about politics,” she said. “This is a boiling point in American history.”

This scandal is not just about a few “pervs” ducking taxes or buying illicit sex from a sleazebag couple.

It looks like it may have national security implications because it resembles a classic “honey trap” set up by foreign agents – such as the late Robert Maxwell – to trap the rich and famous and powerful.
