From administration officials and key donors to the president and perhaps first lady, the millions of documents released by the DOJ make clear why the White House fought so hard to keep them hidden.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really a Democrat problem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That was Donald Trump, commenting<\/a> on the Epstein files a few weeks ago, denying any GOP or MAGA ties to the dead child sex offender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, he was lying as usual. Republicans \u2013 including the president \u2013 are not just mentioned in the documents and emails released so far by the Department of Justice, their names are all over them<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 11 people, tied to the president and starting with<\/em> the president, whose names appear in the DOJ\u2019s Epstein library<\/a>. There is no hard evidence of criminality on their part, but some on this list are accused of shocking behavior, while others have lied about their ties to the late pedophile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never one to be outdone, the president leads the pack in file mentions. Having access to the unredacted Epstein files<\/a>, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said that his search yielded \u201cmore than a million\u201d references to Trump. According<\/a> to the New York Times<\/em>, more than 5,300 of the redacted files contain over 38,000 references to Trump, his wife, his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, and other related phrases, making it quite the close and intimate relationship between Trump and Epstein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More troubling, the president\u2019s name appears in an FBI tip sheet<\/a> several times in abuse allegations. This tip sheet contains multiple instances of alleged sexual abuse by Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last fall, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told<\/a> the New York Post<\/em> that in 2005, when he lived next door to Epstein\u2019s townhouse, he and his wife decided they would \u201cnever be in the room with that disgusting person ever again\u201d after Epstein showed them his \u201cmassage room.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Lutnick, who suggested in the same interview that Epstein was \u201cthe greatest blackmailer ever\u201d was clearly not disgusted enough by what he saw to write the sex offender off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest Epstein files show Lutnick and Epstein were in business together<\/a> as recently as 2014. Their relationship wasn\u2019t limited to business though, as Lutnick and his family, including his kids(!), visited<\/a> Epstein\u2019s island in 2012…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
