The Department of Justice spoke four separate times to a woman who credibly accused Donald Trump of having sex with a minor he met through Jeffrey Epstein—but most accusations against the president appear to have been removed from the government’s documents on the alleged sex trafficker.
A 21-page slideshow buried in the massive trove of Epstein-related documents included allegations that sometime between 1983 and 1985, Trump forced a woman to give him oral sex when she was in her early teens. When the woman bit down on Trump’s exposed penis, he allegedly punched her in the head and kicked her out. That same woman told the DOJ that Epstein had introduced her to Trump in 1984.
Yet last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi insisted that there was “no evidence” that Trump had committed any crime—adding to the growing pile of denials from Trump officials that constitute a sweeping cover-up of the president’s alleged wrongdoing.
Justice Department records indicate that the FBI spoke to this woman not once but at least four separate times, according to independent journalist Roger Sollenberger. Now those records appear to have been removed from public viewing—despite the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires all documents relating to the alleged sex trafficker to be made public.
Sollenberger discovered a record of four separate interviews, which took place in the summer of 2019, in a separate database of documents downloaded from the government’s public files on Epstein. That document indicated that the first of the four interviews was conducted on July 24, 2019, and the last conducted on October 16, 2019. That document was given to Ghislaine Maxwell’s lawyers as part of her trial, though the specific allegations predated Maxwell’s involvement with Epstein, Sollenberger wrote.
The woman’s first interview was entered into the FBI’s case files on August 9, 2019, just one day before Epstein was found dead in his jail cell. FBI agents typically have a deadline of five working days to file interview write-ups, indicating an abnormal 16-day gap, Sollenberger noted.
Who wrote this shit, "...Trump forced a woman to give him oral sex when she was in her early teens.." so a teenager or child and not a woman then?
Always the same language. Same deal with underaged black versus white kids. One is called a young man, the other a kid. Guess who is who.
US media keeps calling the children in the Epstein files women for some reason. It’s been an ongoing theme. German speaking media will occasionally use the German word for minor, but they often also just lazily translate from US sources and use the German word for women/woman.
It's called sane washing. The US media is owned by people who are likely in the files too.
We need to have a simple check in the government and media. Everyone who thinks a 13 year old is a woman please stand on this side of the room. Everyone else please leave the room. Then we drone strike the room with the earthquake bomb.
The 13 year ol side of the room opens up into a pungee pit and they all fall inside and have to slowly bleed out.
Into a gaint woodchipper running at 1/4th the speed?
Actually ome of those metal shredders works better.
Feet first of course
I used to run the wood chipper in an old saw mill in Ontario. It would take an 8' log 15" in diameter and chip it before you could say one-one thou ...
Yes. The allegation should be phrased that he beat and raped a child.
She's a woman now, and was when the interviews occurred over 30 years after the sexual assaults.
The woman was sexually assaulted when she was in her early teens.
Loterally says "Forced a woman"
I think the intended meaning is that she was a woman when the allegations were made but the (alleged) events took place when she was in her early teens.
I know we're all programmed to give people the benefit of the doubt. To try to find sense in any situation. To use Hanlon's razor.
When it comes to Trump, please stop. He doesn't deserve this excess of leniency. He's a child rapist and murderer running the country. Do not try to find sense when there is nothing but cruelty and abuse. It makes a lot more sense when confronted by evidence of cruelty and malice at such a staggering scale to use a reverse Hanlon's razor with Trump.
They're called women to purposefully obfuscate the fact Trump beat and raped a little girl. One of many.
