President Donald Trump is firing back at what he calls a coordinated media hit job, arguing that the sudden frenzy over the newly released Jeffrey Epstein documents is nothing more than a smokescreen to protect the real power players — starting with former President Bill Clinton.
Trump said he will order Attorney General Pam Bondi and the FBI to investigate Epstein’s “involvement and relationship” with Clinton and a circle of Democratic donors and Wall Street executives who maintained ties with the disgraced financier long after his first arrest.
“Epstein was a Democrat — their problem, not mine,” Trump said. “Don’t waste time with Trump. I’m running a country. They’re running a cover-up.”
More than 20,000 pages of Epstein estate files were released this week, prompting breathless coverage over brief mentions of Trump — most of which predate Epstein’s exposure and contain no allegations of wrongdoing.

But Trump and his allies say the media’s hyperfocus on him is deliberate: a distraction from Clinton’s well-documented flights, visits, and deep personal connections to Epstein, as well as from the Democrats, tech billionaires, and major banks that quietly enabled Epstein for decades.

Trump said he has asked the DoJ to probe JP Morgan, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, and LinkedIn billionaire and Democratic megadonor Reid Hoffman — all figures with far more extensive documented contacts with Epstein than anything involving Trump.
JP Morgan issued a carefully worded statement expressing “regret” for its past ties to Epstein while insisting it “did not help him commit his heinous acts.” Critics say the bank had no issue handling Epstein’s accounts even after his conviction.
Documents released by the House Oversight Committee also show 2017 correspondence between Epstein and Summers — years after Epstein was a registered sex offender.
The Media Won’t Touch the Clinton Question
Clinton denies knowing anything about Epstein’s crimes, but his repeated flights on the “Lolita Express,” photographed meetings, and long-running friendship with Epstein remain core questions the press has avoided — especially now, as Congress moves to force transparency.
The Vote That Could Blow Everything Open
Next week, the House will vote on releasing all government-held Epstein files after Democrat Adelita Grijalva became the crucial 218th signatory on a petition forcing the issue to the floor. Four Republicans joined Democrats to demand full disclosure.
Trump is betting that once the full files are released, the public will see what he has insisted all along: that the Epstein network had nothing to do with him — and everything to do with Clinton, Democratic donors, and the elite institutions now hoping the media’s Trump-centric narrative buys them time.
