Woo Hoo... just when you think the Epstein shitshow is about as shitty as it’s going to get, you once again get the lesson that when it comes to Grampaw Shitstain, reality is always going to be way further “out there” than your imagination can possibly imagine.
The Wall Street Journal dropped a nuke down Grampas’s drawers yesterday afternoon, publishing what the paper says is a letter they have verified as coming from Gramps, that is part of a collection of “bawdy” birthday greetings Ghiselle Maxwell collected for Jeffrey’s 53rd birthday back in 2003. And yeah, it’s pretty damn bawdy, but about what you’d expect from the Piece of Shit-In-Chief. Naturally, Gramps responded that the letter was fake, that it was Wall Street Journal Fake News. He also threatened to sue the paper if they published it. The fact they proceeded to publication means they have the goods on this stinky turd. Gramps posted on Lies Anti-Social: "The Wall Street Journal, and Rupert Murdoch, personally, were warned directly by President Donald J. Trump that the supposed letter they printed by President Trump to Epstein was a FAKE and, if they print it, they will be sued. President Trump will be suing The Wall Street Journal, NewsCorp, and Mr. Murdoch, shortly."
With a scream like that, you know he’s been gored.
If the letter to Epstein had been forged and never reviewed by federal prosecutors, as the Journal reports, or deemed by DOJ to be fak, Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Dan Bongino would know it, and one or two or all three of them would’ve leapt to Gramp’s defense. Which hasn’t happened. All they could come up with was Coach Couchfucker - who is now clearly way beyond his depth - posting: “Where is this letter? Would it shock you to learn they never showed it to us before publishing it?” Sometime soon, people in possession of real-time memories will be asked about it, and its authenticity be almost as impossible to dispute as the Access Hollywood tape, and then Trump will have been caught lying about it. Ready for that, MAGA? Ready for that, GOP? Best be grabbing your snorkels, because you’re about to drown in Trumpshit.
Here’s the text:
“Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything.
Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is.
Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is.
Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it.
Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?
Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you.
Donald: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday - and may every day be another wonderful secret.”
The report concludes: “[The] typewritten text [is] framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly ‘Donald’ below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.”
Hoo Boy. This is some Kansas City Style barbecued scandal. Juicy to the bone. The kind I love to watch.
The Journal makes a point of noting that Gramps went out of his way to spread obvious smears after they alerted him to the coming story. “Earlier this week, after the Journal sought comment from the president about the letter, Trump told reporters at the White House that he believed some Epstein files were ‘made up’ by former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden and former FBI Director James Comey.” This raises an important question: Had Trump been tipped off that this story was in the works before Saturday, when he first claimed Obama, Comey, et al wrote the Epstein files? It would be consistent with his handling of basically every looming scandal: claim that something true and damning is a hoax.
Interestingly, the other individuals named in the Journal article were all questioned about their reponse; none of them had any problem with the story. The only one to claim it was fake was Donald J. Trump.
Nick Fuentes is now definitely a former Gramps supporter with this statement: “This entire thing has been a scam. The liberals were right, the MAGA supporters were had.” He then called Gramps a scam artist.
Yesterday afternoon - before The Letter became public - Grampaw Shitstain once again snubbed his MAGA base by rejecting pleas to appoint a special prosecutor to examine the Epstein files. Despite Republicans’ growing frustration over the political firestorm engulfing the president for his handling of the issue, Gramps ruled out recommending an independent counsel to review the matter and assuage concerns about a possible cover-up. Gramps Fluffer Karoline Leavitt told reporters during a White House briefing on Thursday: “The president would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case. That’s how he feels.” MAGA podcaster Brian Allen said: “No special counsel. No client list. No justice. He’s protecting the system because he’s a part of it.”
Afterwards, when The Story came out, Gramps relented only so far as calling on Bondi to secure the release of Epstein investigation grand jury testimony, “subject to Court approval.” There are procedural problems with Grampaw’s construction, but assuming he was just mangling legal jargon, and the transcripts do become public, it won’t be nearly enough. The Epstein case file contains FBI interview notes, video files, personal documents and much more. Anyone who pretends to be satisfied by such a limited disclosure will be misleading the public intentionally.
MAGA Mike Johnson said: “The House Republicans are for transparency and they’re looking for a way to say that. I’ve been very clear, the members have been very clear. The House Rules Committee Republicans have been taking incoming and criticism because they voted to stop the Democrats’ politicization of this, and they’re trying to stick to their job and move the procedural rules to the floor so we can do our work and get the rescissions done for the American people. They are for transparency, just as we all are, and we are looking for ways to express that. That’s all it is,” he added. Yeah, they’re looking for a way to bury this - most likely a congressional special committee tasked to provide a final report in December 2026. Last night, they inserted a non-binding resolution calling for “credible evidence” from the Epstein Files be released, which Ranking Member Jim McGovern called “a glorified press release.” Things are expanding like a supernova, and there will either be a binding resolution that the Epstein Files be released, or there will be no progress on rescission, which turns into a pumpkin at midnight tonight if they don’t get it done. The collection of southern-fried shitstains are getting closer and closer to blowing the whole rescissions bill to hell - where it belongs.
Wait till this next bit gets its second wind over the weekend:
Elon Musk launched into an all-night X posting spree about Donald Trump’s handling of the so-called Epstein files, as the president makes desperate attempts to get his MAGA base to talk about anything else. Musk, 54, posted about Epstein 13 times in just over an hour on Wednesday afternoon. He followed this by firing off another barrage of tweets about the subject from Wednesday afternoon into the early hours of Thursday morning, barely taking a break between posts. “It’s a cover up (obviously),” he said in response to a tweet from a large conservative account, which referenced President Trump’s recent rebuke of the matter by saying: “It’s not a hoax.” Asked in another post from a large right-wing account whether he thinks anyone will be “held accountable,” Musk responded: “I sure hope so. This is a fundamental verdict on justice in America.” “If even a few of the very worst Epstein ‘clients’ were to be prosecuted, that would be something. But zero?” he asked quizzically in an earlier post. “Over 1000 confirmed young victims is a shockingly large and tragic number! In order for the government to confirm that the girls were victimized, they would have had to name or at least describe who raped them,” Musk replied to his bot. “This would necessarily mean that the government MUST have the list of rapists aka ‘the Epstein client list’ in their possession right f------g now!” Explaining his motivations for the latest posting spree, Musk said in an earlier tweet: “We were all told that the list was going to be released.”
And Vice President Out-Of-His-Depth has come out swinging - and mostly missing - in his defense of Dearest Leader, calling the Journal article “complete bullshit” on Xitter last evening. “Forgive my language, but this is complete and utter bullshit. Does anyone honestly believe this sounds like Donald Trump?” He went on to say that the Journal never “showed [the Epstein birthday letter] to us before publishing” the article. “Doesn’t it violate some rule of journalistic ethics to publish a letter like this without showing it to the victim of this hit piece? Will the people who have bought into every hoax against President Trump show an ounce of skepticism before buying into this bizarre story?”
For those who may still doubt the existence of an “Epstein client list,” there may not be a formal “list,” but the FBI has certainly compiled a list of those involved during their investigations. When the FBI raided Epstein’s New York mansion, they seized a vast amount of material. In a court memo filed on July 8, 2019, two days after his arrest, the Department of Justice outlined some of the evidence they had seized. This included stacks of compact disks labeled “Young [Name] + [Name].” Epstein kept a carefully curated library of videos showing various people having sex with underage women. Even if Epstein was not actively blackmailing anyone, he sure seems he had plenty of insurance at the ready. With over a thousand victims to interview and piles of DVDs labeled with perpetrators’ names, the FBI and Pam Bondi know exactly who was involved.
Wherever you look, it’s all going to hell in the proverbial handbasket. Here’s the main campaign message for Democrats in 2026: “Give us control of Congress and we’ll conduct proper hearings and get to the bottom of the Epstein mess!”
I’m sure I’ll have more to post on this deep dish Chicago pizza of a Giant Fakakte. I love it.
“Poking Around” will be up later today. There’s a lot to poke.

Apart from the main thrust this glorious post, I was struck by the absurdity of Mike Johnson’s statement, in which appeared the words, “so we can do our work and get the rescissions done for the American people”. Yes, we, the American people are greatly relieved that NPR will finally be defunded, along with everything else that’s been hacked off at the knees.
Republicans never do anything “for” the American people, they only do things “to” us, with a sick combination of false piety and undisguised glee. “For” is reserved for the uber wealthy.
Anybody still doubt that Epstein was given the “Prigozhin” treatment…. What has happened to Rupert, has James outsmarted Lachlan. Oh, the web of monied evil is twisted indeed.
