Following Israel’s attack on Hamas negotiators in Doha, the White House stated the strike did not align with U.S. or Israeli goals, though eliminating Hamas is a worthy objective. The administration claimed to have notified Qatar prior to the attack, a claim refuted by Qatari officials. Hamas condemned the strike, holding the U.S. jointly responsible and alleging Israel aimed to obstruct peace efforts. The attack, occurring amid ceasefire talks and just after a warning from Trump to Hamas, has raised concerns about regional stability and US credibility.

Handwriting expert Emma Bache has analyzed the signature on a birthday message to Jeffrey Epstein and concluded that it is “absolutely” Donald Trump’s signature from the early 2000s. Comparing the signature with others from the time, Bache found the formation, pressure, and strokes to be identical to the former president’s official signature. The files, released by the US Congress, originated from a book compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell for Epstein’s 50th birthday. While the White House has denied Trump’s involvement, Bache stated that forging the signature would be “almost impossible” due to its confidence and speed.

Following the release of a birthday letter from Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, which Congress obtained and the Wall Street Journal published, right-wing figures have largely dismissed its authenticity. Despite initial outrage and denials of the letter’s existence, prominent conservatives, including the White House Press Secretary and Vice President J.D. Vance, are now attempting to discredit the signature, even in the face of evidence. These actions reflect a trend of prioritizing the protection of Trump over addressing any potential connection to Epstein, further exemplified by comments from House Speaker Mike Johnson and MAGA influencers like Charlie Kirk and Benny Johnson. This denial of reality is a familiar tactic, as conservatives continue to downplay the significance of the relationship between Trump and Epstein.

This decision is a setback to accountability efforts, especially since similar cases are still pending in other states like Nevada, Arizona, and Wisconsin.
