The Epstein Files are shaping up to be the most politically defective hand grenade of the decade \u2014 a weapon that blows up in the face of anyone foolish enough to pull the pin. Every politician who\u2019s tried to weaponize it has ended up covered in shrapnel. And yes, the Trump administration learned that lesson the hard way, too.<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t a scandal anyone controls; it\u2019s a boomerang. And sooner or later, it comes back to whoever throws it.Now it\u2019s the Democrats\u2019 turn to grab the Epstein grenade \u2014 and they\u2019re about to find out exactly why you should never demand something you\u2019re not prepared to live with. After years of shouting for every scrap of Epstein-related material to be released, they\u2019re about to learn the classic lesson: be careful what you wish for.Because guess what? Democrats didn\u2019t suddenly cut off contact with Epstein after his 2007 sex-crimes plea deal. Far from it. The paper trail shows they kept engaging with him for years. One email even links a Democrat fundraising group\u2019s efforts on behalf of Hakeem Jeffries directly to Epstein \u2014 in 2013:<\/p>\n
That little bombshell has also dragged back into the spotlight a revelation from nearly two years ago involving the Pritzker dynasty. One of the victims in the Epstein investigation identified a cousin of Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker \u2014 a detail the media politely stuffed under the rug at the time:<\/p>\n
And it gets even worse for the Pritzker orbit. Tom Pritzker\u2019s contact with Epstein didn\u2019t just linger after the scandal \u2014 it continued all the way through at least 2016. One email chain shows JB\u2019s cousin casually talking shop with Epstein about James Comey, Bill Clinton, and even disgraced fugitive financier Marc Rich:<\/p>\n
So let\u2019s review. The Pritzker family \u2014 the financial lifeblood of Democrat politics and the ruling dynasty in Illinois \u2014 maintained cozy contact with a convicted sex trafficker for years after his 2007 plea deal. Not whispers, not speculation \u2014 documented communication.<\/p>\n
Democrat fundraising operatives even courted Epstein to help boost their candidates, including the man who now leads the House Democrat caucus and never misses a chance to lecture America about the \u201cmoral stain\u201d of Epstein. The hypocrisy is almost too on-the-nose to parody.<\/p>\n
This is exactly the kind of smug projection that keeps leaving Democrats squarely in the blast radius of the Epstein grenade. They threw it, they demanded it, they screamed for full exposure \u2014 and now the shrapnel is landing in their own backyard.<\/p>\n
Let me make this prediction: Once the full trove comes out, we\u2019re going to see plenty of embarrassing material \u2014 not just about donors and operatives, but about the political hangers-on who cozied up to Epstein on both sides of the aisle. That\u2019s just the reality of how political ecosystems work. And remember: none of this stopped until Donald Trump\u2019s first-term DOJ resurrected the case and finally brought Epstein \u2014 and later Ghislaine Maxwell \u2014 to justice. Democrats conveniently forget that part.<\/p>\n
My bet? The embarrassment will land much harder on Democrats, simply because Epstein\u2019s Rolodex was stacked with big-name left-leaning financiers, foundations, and social-circle elites. But I won\u2019t be shocked if a few GOP stragglers show up too. Power attracts parasites.<\/p>\n
What I don\u2019t expect is a direct link to anyone with serious political clout today \u2014 because if that kind of smoking gun existed, it would\u2019ve leaked years ago. The political appetite for taking Trump down has been bottomless; if there were anything truly damning, we\u2019d all have known long before now.<\/p>\n
The coming revelations will be messy, embarrassing, and politically inconvenient\u2026 but they won\u2019t rewrite history.<\/p>\n
President Donald Trump announced that the Biden administration\u2019s use of the autopen is under investigation.<\/p>\n
During a meeting at the White House, a reporter\u00a0asked\u00a0Trump about Venezuela and the threat of terrorism posed by President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro. Trump spoke about his administration\u2019s efforts to combat the threat, which led to him slamming President Joe Biden\u2019s incompetence.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou talk about Argentina being important in Latin America. What is your plan for Venezuela? What is the new terrorism, the narco-terrorism against President Maduro? What is your plan about it?\u201d a reporter asked Trump.<\/p>\n
\u201cVenezuela has done a couple of things very badly. Number one, we get drugs and all of that. But we get something, in a way, worse. Because they\u2019re a big purveyor of drugs. But we have worse. What they do very well is they send their criminals into the United States. And they send Tren de Aragua, that you know very well. You\u2019re from Venezuela, I assume. And they send them in by the thousands, literally. And these are the worst of all. They empty their prisons into the United States. They empty their mental institutions into the United States,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd because we had a president who\u2019s low IQ, he didn\u2019t realize what was going on. And the people that are high IQ that surround him, but they happen to be lunatics, radical left, they\u2019re highly intelligent, radical left lunatics. So, in a way, that\u2019s worse than having a guy like Biden,\u201d Trump added.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut they ran the show. You heard about the Autopen. The person that really operated the Autopen. But it was really the people that told the person that operated the Autopen what to do. Those are the people that really were president. So, we\u2019re not going to stand for it in this country,\u201d the president argued.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd, by the way, that Autopen thing is under serious investigation. I don\u2019t think you care because you\u2019re from Washington. You couldn\u2019t care less about that,\u201d Trump continued.<\/p>\n
Trump concluded, \u201cBut I just want to say, because I do The Weave, you know. The Weave covers a lot of different subjects. But the people that are involved in that Autopen scam, because he barely signed anything. I mean, this guy, I don\u2019t know how he can be president. He barely signed it. But the only thing we can find for sure is that he signed Hunter\u2019s Biden. His pardon. Hunter\u2019s Biden. I like that. That\u2019s a good combination.\u201dInternal White House emails reveal concern among aides and Justice Department officials about former President Joe Biden\u2019s sweeping clemency grants in his final days in office, including uncertainty over whether Biden personally reviewed or approved the specific documents authorizing thousands of pardons and commutations.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0messages\u00a0show that Biden orally approved a plan on Jan. 11, 2025, to commute sentences for inmates serving time on crack cocaine charges. But three warrant documents listing roughly 2,500 recipients were not signed \u2014 by autopen \u2014 until the morning of Jan. 17, just three days before he left office.<\/p>\n
On the evening of Jan. 16, then-White House Staff Secretary Stef Feldman told colleagues she needed confirmation that Biden had consented before she would authorize his autopen signature.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m going to need email \u2026 confirming P[resident] signs off on the specific documents when they are ready,\u201d Feldman wrote at 9:16 p.m.<\/p>\n
Deputy White House counsel Tyeesha Dixon forwarded Feldman\u2019s message to Michael Posada, chief of staff to the counsel\u2019s office.<\/p>\n
\u201cMichael, thoughts on how to handle this? He doesn\u2019t review the warrants,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n
Posada responded: \u201cWe will just need something \u2026 making clear that the documents accurately reflect his decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
The mass clemency was announced hours later, at 4:59 a.m. on Jan. 17.<\/p>\n
It remains unclear whether Biden personally reviewed the final warrant documents before autopen signatures were affixed.<\/p>\n
In public comments to the New York Times in July, Biden acknowledged the use of autopen, saying it was necessary \u201cbecause there were a lot of them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Legal experts note that the autopen carries full legal effect, but the warrants must reflect the president\u2019s actual decisions. Emails show aides attempted to create a record\u00a0verifying his intent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
