WSJ: Who Provided You With This Alleged Epstein Birthday Album?

To be fair, I can't see the original article without a subscription, and I haven't had a subscription to the WSJ since Rupert Murdoch - former owner of Faux News - erm, I mean Fox News - took over.

Thus, I'm reading articles from the subscriptions I already have for the info and none of what I've read so far answers that question in my title.

So the gist of it is, the WSJ dropped a bombshell article showing a note allegedly written by Trump on Epstein's 50th birthday album compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell, that said “Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret,” as well as included a drawing of a naked woman.

In response, Trump said on Truth Social: "These are not my words, not the way I talk. Also, I don’t draw pictures."

Okay. Then what are these, sold at auctions?

To be fair, he later clarified in an interview that he "doesn't draw pictures of women."

Then he does what he always does - sued them.

News flash for idiots - suing enumerable people on a nearly monthly basis doesn't make you look innocent - it makes you look like a (guilty) Karen, trying to bully people into silence.

As for the WSJ, I'm no fan since Rupert Murdoch bought it - but all I can say is, I hope it's authentic?

Trump's signature is very distinctive.

But here's the bigger question no one's asking ...

Who provided the Epstein birthday album that Ghislaine Maxwell made for him, anyway?

As Democrats, if we don't ask questions like this, preferring reliance on belief alone, then we are just as bad as MAGA.

We still need to very careful -  ferret out fact versus fiction regardless - because just 1 fake piece of "proof" can wreck the whole case.

Having said that -  hell, yes - I totally believe he was buddy-buddy with Epstein, and at the very least, knew he liked underage girls, but that is based on what I've seen, heard, and read with my own eyes.

There are numerous pictures, videos, and articles from the early-to-mid 2000s - but more importantly, this New York Magazine article from October 2002, where Trump said of Epstein:

"I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”likes them on the younger side."

That's a flat-out admission that Trump knew Jeffery Epstein liked underaged girls - a full  4 years before Epstein was arrested in 2006.

I've posted that many times, along with the pictures and videos.

The problem is, right-wing news outlets and social media - did NOT. 

So most of MAGA is just now hearing this for the first time.

In fact, I forwarded it my close friend, Marian, not long before she died (killed by a drunk driver in 2023).

She was a very devout Christian, who after previously stating Trump had "bewitched" the nation, suddenly flipped to support Trump, and the Epstein thing became big issue for her.

Her big thing was the Clintons and Bill Clinton's close association with him, which I don't doubt, either!

However, she was blown away by that article and Trump's quote.

She'd never seen it, and she wondered why no one ever told her, why the right-wing news she was watching never mentioned it nor even hinted at the the long friendship between Trump and Epstein.

I said "Sometimes, Marian - the smeller is the feller. You know this already from my family 😂"

She laughed, and said "Isn't THAT the truth!"

As a result, she said she'll still see how it shakes out, but she didn't trust anyone rich and powerful anymore, regardless of political party. 

Amen. 

Truer words have never been spoken.
