‘We need no such protection’: Clinton accuses Trump of selectively releasing Epstein files — and calls for complete release

A spokesperson for former President Bill Clinton released a statement accusing the Trump administration of unfairly releasing selective portions of the Epstein files.

The Dept. of Justice released a trove of documents from the case against convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, with many of the photographs relating to Clinton.

‘Someone or something is being protected. We do not know whom, what, or why. But we do know this: We need no such protection.’

On Monday, the former president called for more transparency in the release in a statement released by his spokesperson Angel Urena.

“The Epstein Files Transparency Act imposes a clear legal duty on the U.S.Department of Justice to produce the full and complete record the public demands and deserves,” Clinton’s statement reads.

“However, what the Department of Justice has released so far, and the manner in which it did so, makes one thing clear: Someone or something is being protected. We do not know whom, what, or why. But we do know this: We need no such protection,” the statement continued.

He went on to call on Trump to direct U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to “immediately” release other materials that related to Clinton, including “grand jury transcripts, interview notes, photographs,” as well any findings from the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York.

“Refusal to do so will confirm the widespread suspicion the Department ofJustice’s actions to date are not about transparency, but about insinuation,” Clinton’s statement continued, “using selective releases to imply wrongdoing about individuals who have already been repeatedly cleared by the very same Department of Justice, over many years, under presidents and Attorneys General of both parties.”

Among the photos widely circulated on social media from the release is one of Clinton with his arm around a young lady who also has her arm around his shoulders. Her face is obscured to protect her identity.

Another photograph shows the former president in a swimming pool with Epstein’s consort, Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as another woman whose face has been obscured.

TPUSA straw poll shows dominant front-runner for 2028 nomination

The straw poll of attendees at Turning Point USA’s conference shows a massive front-runner for the 2028 Republican nomination.

Vice President JD Vance received support from 84.2% of the straw poll voters, and no other candidate obtained over 5% in the contest.

Then-candidate Trump received support from 82.6% of the voters in the previous poll.

In fact, Vance received slightly more support than President Donald Trump did in the same straw poll for 2024. Then-candidate Trump received support from 82.6% of the voters in the previous poll.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio came in a distant second with 4.8% support.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) obtained 2.9%, while Donald Trump Jr. got 1.8% support.

Attendees of the AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona, were also asked to express how they view the United States’ relationship with Israel. A third said Israel was the country’s top ally, while another 53.4% said Israel was one ally among many. Only 13.3% said Israel was not an ally at all.

An large number of attendees, 89.5%, said they would support a moratorium on immigration to the U.S. Only 10.5% said they opposed the policy.

Vance spoke at the conference and was endorsed by Charlie Kirk’s wife, Erika Kirk, for president. He has not announced a campaign yet.

Among possible threats to the U.S., the straw poll voters said “radical Islam” was their top concern, while “socialism/Marxism” came in second, and “mass migration” came in third.

The lowest-ranked threats were “low fertility” and “technology/AI.”

Never trust the MSM: Vanity Fair Trump admin hit piece only confirms its malice

Vanity Fair’s bombshell profile of White House chief of staff Susie Wiles and other key figures within the Trump administration turned out to be a disingenuously framed hit piece.

“Significant context was disregarded and much of what I, and others, said about the team and the President was left out of the story,” Wiles wrote on X. “I assume, after reading it, that this was done to paint an overwhelmingly chaotic and negative narrative about the President and our team.”

“If I were President Trump, I would fire whoever let Vanity Fair do this because you could call this an unforced error,” BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler comments on “The Liz Wheeler Show,” pointing out that the photography used was also edited to be incredibly unflattering.

“Look at that picture of Susie Wiles. No one claims she’s a runway model. Like obviously she’s not 20 years old. No one cares about that. But that is obviously a photograph that is deliberately intended to make her look psycho,” Wheeler says.

Vanity Fair also included an extremely close-up photo of Marco Rubio, where according to Wheeler, they “make him look like he’s dying of the plague.”

“That was intentional. It wasn’t an accident. … They did this on purpose. It was malicious because they’re trying to undermine these people, especially the people who they think might have political careers after President Trump,” she explains.

But it wasn’t just Wiles and Rubio targeted by the magazine. They also included a close-up, heavily edited photo of Karoline Leavitt, who Wheeler says “obviously is a nice-looking person.”

“They are deliberately trying to make her look ugly … they’re trying to drive a wedge between President Trump and his staff,” she says.

“And I know the president is not naive. He’s not going to let that happen. And honestly, like I said, I know this is going viral on X, but really people should not be that upset about it,” Wheeler says, pointing out that the tactic is “tired.”

“Again, my bigger question is, ‘Who OK’d this interview?’ Like really? Are you an idiot? To give the mainstream media this opportunity to try to attack you, whoever approved it should be fired,” she adds.

Glenn Beck: Brown University killer fits a chilling pattern of evil and self-destruction

On Dec. 13, Claudio Manuel Neves-Valente opened fire inside the Barus and Holley building at Brown University, where he killed students Ella Cook and Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov and wounded nine others.

Valente then fled to Brookline, Massachusetts, where he is believed to have shot and killed Nuno Loureiro, an MIT nuclear science and engineering professor from Portugal. The suspect was finally found dead in New Hampshire after a manhunt that lasted for days.

While the motive is still being investigated, Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck believes whatever it was, it may have had extremely sinister and demonic roots.

“Some students remember, they said he screamed out, ‘Allahu Akbar.’ Apparently now, people are saying, ‘I think he was barking,’” Glenn explains.

“If you’re barking, that might be a sign of, the guy was completely out of his mind,” he continues, pointing out that the shooter also killed himself after taking several lives.

“What’s interesting to me is how many of these people are — they go and do something, and then they kill themselves,” Glenn says, relating it to Steve Deace’s movie “Nefarious.”

“In ‘Nefarious,’ Satan has possessed this guy. And once in a while, Satan lets him come out, and the guy’s like, ‘Help me, help me, please help me’ … and then Satan takes control of him again. And what happens?” Glenn asks.

“He kills himself,” he answers.

“I think, unlike any time before in my lifetime, you can see this is evil. There is a force that seems to be sweeping the entire world. All of these people do these horrendous things, and then they shoot themselves. … It’s almost as if evil is playing with these people, getting them to do all of this horrible, horrible stuff,” he continues.

After they’re finished, “Boom. They kill themselves. Because they’re just a meat puppet of evil, and they’re of no use to evil.”

“They’ve done their job,” Glenn adds.
