Trump dismissed the controversy surrounding “burn bags” as old news and a Democratic scam, suggesting any damaging information would have been released before the election. He stated that the Democrats controlled the files and should have released this information earlier if they had any evidence. The article indicates that one document within the “burn bags” is a classified annex to John Durham’s report on Russian interference. Despite the report’s lack of significant findings, the Trump administration is working to declassify the annex and share it with the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The family of Virginia Giuffre, a woman who has bravely come forward to accuse Jeffrey Epstein of sex trafficking, is understandably reeling from the recent comments made by former President Donald Trump. His casual use of the word “stole” to describe Epstein’s actions regarding Giuffre is, at best, deeply insensitive, and at worst, incredibly revealing. It’s a statement that cuts to the core of a sickening reality, leaving many wondering what else the former president knows, and how deeply entangled he was in Epstein’s network of abuse.
It’s difficult to ignore the implications of the word “stole.” In the context of an underage girl being exploited, it suggests ownership, a possessive attitude that casts a disturbing light on Trump’s perception of women. When he uses this term, does it imply that he viewed Giuffre as something he had a right to, or that Epstein had taken something that belonged to him? The family’s understandable shock stems from the casual way in which this language was used. It’s as if Trump is acknowledging some level of familiarity with the situation while simultaneously minimizing the horrific nature of the crimes.
The fact that Trump, a man with extensive properties, hotels, and resorts, would even notice a young employee at his Mar-a-Lago spa changing jobs raises serious questions. How closely was he paying attention to this particular individual? When did he learn of her involvement with Epstein? Did Epstein brag about it to Trump? These are the questions that many are now asking, trying to understand the scope of his knowledge.
If Trump’s version is accurate, and Epstein “stole” Giuffre, the obvious question becomes: what did Epstein steal her *for*? What business was he taking her for? It’s a question that goes beyond mere acquaintance, hinting at an involvement far more sinister. It’s a phrase that seems to imply Trump thought of her as his personal property, really.
This is not just about one person, one victim, or one isolated incident. The details surrounding the Epstein case point to a network of powerful individuals involved in exploitation and abuse. And Trump’s statement, however unintentional, seemingly implicates himself in this web. It’s a disturbing suggestion, that by his own admission, he may have been aware of, or even complicit in, the trafficking of underage girls.
Adding another layer of complexity to the story, is Trump’s long-standing, well-documented pattern of dismissing accusations of wrongdoing as “fake news” and claiming to be a victim of a “witch hunt”. This defense has been used time and time again to deflect any accountability.
This situation has left many people, including the Giuffre family, questioning whether Trump should be held to account for his past actions. His comments bring up the question of whether he was an accessory, an abettor, or a co-conspirator. Was this a failure to act, or was there a deeper involvement that he has yet to fully reveal? The “stole” comment, in essence, shifts the conversation, suggesting that he may have been more than just a casual acquaintance of Epstein, and may have had some form of control over the young woman involved.
The families’ concern, in this case, is heightened, because in his comments, Trump seemingly places himself within the narrative. The Giuffre family is asking the simple question, what else does he know? He needs to release documents. The time has come to tell the complete truth. The only way to find out what he knows for certain is to release all the evidence.
The comments by Trump also point to a disturbing truth, Trump, if true, was using the girls for his own purposes. Trump used the word “stole”. So, maybe this means Trump didn’t get paid. This theory of greed is the best and simplest interpretation of the events.
