Newly uncovered photos and video footage published by CNN show more links between the notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump, including Epstein’s attendance at Trump’s wedding to Marla Maples at the Plaza hotel in New York in 1993.

The media organization said on Wednesday that Epstein’s attendance at the wedding ceremony was not widely known.

CNN also published footage from 1999 of Trump and Epstein attending a Victoria’s Secret fashion event in New York, where they are seen talking and laughing alongside Trump’s future wife, Melania Trump.

When asked for comment by CNN on the newly unearthed videos and photos, Trump reportedly responded: “You’ve got to be kidding me.” He then reportedly called CNN “fake news” and hung up the phone.

I honestly don't know if that's a joke quote or an actual quote. Trump is just absurd

Yes, but who cares. Sacrifice a few kids to keep white in power is a good deal for many I assume. This just has been human ritual for thousands of years.

Give up silently somewhere else.

The rest of you, keep up the heat.

Resounding not to you, but to the void. I mean, really, who cares? Is purity politics. A pedophile slipped into a cannibalistic system. Not much new there. We going to get a big sigh of relief when the fucking predator gets out of the white house, he'll be replaced, and he wendigo will keep feeding.

The endless amount of publicly available internet photos aren't enough for you?

If America doesn't know ... then they are just that dumb

If America does now ... then they are dumb and dangerous at the same time

Regardless of however you want to frame the story ... America just comes out as a country of very, very stupid people

I'm saying this in a non-accusatory way, but Canada needs to watch their own selves. You guys are being targeted in the same ways and it's working. Don't be smug like us and think it won't happen in your neck of the woods.
