Epstein Exchanged Emails With Former Lawyer For Barack Obama\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%; height:auto;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein cut ties with Bill Clinton because he thought the former president was a liar, according to new emails his estate turned over to Congress on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The emails, obtained by the House Oversight Committee, also reveal that Kathryn Ruemmler \u2014 former White House counsel to Barack Obama \u2014 maintained a remarkably cozy relationship with Epstein. The two exchanged friendly messages and regularly chatted politics in the run-up to the 2016 election, underscoring just how deep Epstein\u2019s connections ran inside Democratic power circles,\u00a0the New York Post reported.<\/p>\n<p>In a Jan. 23, 2016, email, Epstein wrote that he broke off contact with Clinton after \u201che swore, with whole-hearted conviction to me that he had done something, he had forgotten that he also swore the exact opposite to me only weeks before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho knows what they\u2019re talking about,\u201d a Clinton spokesperson replied in a statement. \u201cWhat we do know and have always said is that President Clinton knew nothing about Epstein\u2019s heinous crimes and hadn\u2019t spoken to him in twenty years. Now here it is in black and white.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will just say I told you so. Not to sound overly dramatic, but he is very close to being a psychopath,\u201d Ruemmler had said earlier in the exchange of the mysterious individual. \u201c[H]e has no conscience. It\u2019s scary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe obviously said something to you yesterday that was disturbing, and you don\u2019t want to tell me. Just tell me \u2014 I can take it. I promise,\u201d added Ruemmler of the person, who at one time was listed in January 2019 as a backup executor to Epstein\u2019s estate, according to The Wall Street Journal.<\/p>\n<p>who was once listed as a backup executor to Epstein\u2019s estate in January 2019,\u00a0the Wall Street Journal reported.<\/p>\n<p>But it remains unclear how long the rift lasted, as Clinton appears in other emails within the more than 20,000 pages of documents released Wednesday by the House Oversight Committee.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s do a men of the world conference,\u201d theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss said in an April 5, 2018, email to Epstein, sending a proposed invite list that included Clinton, actor Kevin Spacey, former Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) and director Woody Allen.<\/p>\n<p>Ruemmler met Epstein while working as a partner at Latham &amp; Watkins. She is now the chief legal officer and general counsel at Goldman Sachs. A spokesperson for the firm said her interactions with Epstein were limited to business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey shared a common client that originated as an Epstein referral,\u201d the spokesperson said, referring to her time at Latham &amp; Watkins.<\/p>\n<p>Clinton and Epstein\u2019s ties date back to at least the early 1990s, when Epstein donated to Bill Clinton\u2019s presidential campaign. He later contributed $20,000 to Hillary Clinton\u2019s 1999 Senate campaign. White House visitor logs show Epstein visited the White House more than a dozen times during Clinton\u2019s presidency.<\/p>\n<p>After Clinton left office, the two remained in contact. Epstein continued donating to the Clinton Foundation, and flight records show Clinton took more than two dozen trips on Epstein\u2019s private plane, often referred to as the \u201cLolita Express.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Epstein was known to travel with young women on his jet while maintaining relationships with a number of prominent public figures.<\/p>\n<p>The former president was photographed receiving a shoulder massage from Chauntae Davies, a 22-year-old massage therapist, during a refueling stop on a 2002 humanitarian trip to Africa aboard the \u201cLolita Express.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clinton also visited Epstein\u2019s New York apartment, though a spokesperson said he never traveled to Epstein\u2019s private island, Little St. James. Notably, Epstein kept a painting in his Upper East Side residence depicting Clinton in a blue dress \u2014 a reference to the garment central to the former president\u2019s scandal involving Monica Lewinsky.<\/p>\n<p>In an escalating political battle, President Donald Trump on Thursday formally joined the chorus of Republican lawmakers calling for the expulsion of U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) from Congress.<\/p>\n<p>His remarks followed a storm of controversy triggered by an interview Omar gave to far-left commentator Mehdi Hasan, in which she appeared to defend the assassination of conservative figure Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n<p>In the interview, Omar described Kirk as a radical, suggesting that his inflammatory rhetoric may have contributed to the violent act. Omar&#8217;s comments were perceived by many as an endorsement of violence, or at the very least, a downplaying of the severity of the tragedy.<\/p>\n<p>The interview has sparked widespread condemnation from Republicans, who now say that Omar\u2019s actions warrant expulsion from Congress, while Democrats are rallying to her defense, citing her right to free speech and the controversial nature of the political debate at hand.<\/p>\n<p>Omar\u2019s appearance on Hasan\u2019s show, which aired on the far-left network MSNBC, quickly became a lightning rod for criticism. During the conversation, Omar pointed to Kirk\u2019s history of inflammatory remarks, including comments made about school shootings and racial justice.<\/p>\n<p>She said, \u201cBut what I do know for sure is that Charlie Kirk was someone who once said, \u2018Guns save lives\u2019 after a school shooting.\u201d She also referenced Kirk\u2019s downplaying of George Floyd\u2019s murder by Minneapolis police, as well as his dismissive stance on slavery and Juneteenth, a holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved people in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Omar\u2019s comments, however, were widely criticized for taking Kirk\u2019s words out of context. She claimed Kirk had belittled important civil rights issues, but critics argued that her characterization was misleading and unfairly distorted Kirk\u2019s views.<\/p>\n<p>At one point during the interview, Omar disagreed with Hasan\u2019s characterization of Kirk as merely someone seeking \u201ca civil debate.\u201d Omar dismissed this idea as \u201ca complete rewriting of history,\u201d adding, \u201cYeah, there\u2019s nothing more effed up than to completely pretend that his words and actions have not been recorded and in existence for the last decade or so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For many on the right, these words were seen as an endorsement of violence. They pointed out that Omar had effectively demonized Kirk in such a way that it was easy to see why a radical might target him.<\/p>\n<p>Omar&#8217;s lack of clear condemnation for the assassination, combined with her incendiary comments about Kirk\u2019s views, set off a wave of criticism from conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump wasted no time in weighing in on the matter. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump condemned Omar&#8217;s comments and called for her immediate expulsion from Congress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think she should be impeached. I think she\u2019s terrible,\u201d Trump declared. \u201cIs she originally from Somalia? So how are they doing it? How\u2019s their government? Do they have a president? Do they have a council? Do they have anything? Do they have police?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump went on to criticize Omar\u2019s background, citing her Somali origins as evidence of her supposed unfitness to influence U.S. policy. \u201cI love these people that come from a place with nothing, nothing, no anything, and then they tell us how to run our country,\u201d Trump remarked, doubling down on his belief that Omar\u2019s immigrant background made her ill-suited to offer advice on American governance.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s remarks were swiftly amplified on social media, particularly through his Truth Social platform. There, he once again lashed out at Omar\u2019s home country, Somalia, highlighting its ongoing struggles with terrorism, poverty, and political instability. In a post, Trump wrote:\u201cIlhan Omar\u2019s Country of Somalia is plagued by a lack of central Government control, persistent Poverty, Hunger, Resurgent Terrorism, Piracy, decades of Civil War, Corruption, and pervasive Violence.<\/p>\n<p>70% of the population lives in extreme Poverty, and widespread Food Insecurity. Somalia is consistently ranked among the World\u2019s Most Corrupt Countries, including Bribery, Embezzlement, and a Dysfunctional Government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s use of Omar\u2019s background in his critique drew backlash from her supporters, who accused him of xenophobia and racism.<\/p>\n<p>For many Democrats, this line of attack was nothing more than a distraction from the real issues at hand\u2014namely, Omar\u2019s comments about Kirk and the role of inflammatory rhetoric in fueling violence.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, however, was undeterred in his criticism, reinforcing his claim that Omar was unqualified to serve in Congress because of her immigrant status.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s calls for Omar\u2019s removal from Congress reflect a broader Republican push to expel the Minnesota congresswoman over her controversial remarks.<\/p>\n<p>Republican lawmakers have expressed growing frustration with Omar\u2019s vocal progressive views, especially her criticism of U.S. foreign policy, her stance on Israel, and her outspoken remarks on racial justice.<\/p>\n<p>For Republicans, the issue at hand is not just Omar\u2019s recent interview, but a broader pattern of behavior they view as radical and un-American. Many Republican lawmakers argue that Omar\u2019s rhetoric, especially on social media, has consistently crossed the line from political discourse into incitement, and that her actions have endangered national security and the safety of U.S. citizens.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe cannot allow a member of Congress to openly defend or justify the murder of a fellow American citizen,\u201d said Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who has been a vocal critic of Omar for years. \u201cThis isn\u2019t just about free speech, it\u2019s about accountability. She should be expelled immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some Republican leaders are now pushing for a formal resolution to expel Omar from the House, following similar efforts in recent years to remove other controversial members.<\/p>\n<p>While the push to expel Omar is unlikely to gain traction in a Democratic-controlled chamber, it is emblematic of the growing sense of frustration on the right over what they see as a lack of accountability for members of the progressive left.<\/p>\n<p>On the other side of the aisle, Democrats have rallied behind Omar, with many pointing to her comments as part of a broader political debate about the role of free speech and the dangers of political polarization.<\/p>\n<p>For Omar\u2019s supporters, the attacks against her are rooted in racism and an attempt to silence marginalized voices in Congress.<\/p>\n<p>Omar herself has remained defiant, refusing to back down from her earlier comments. In a series of interviews, she argued that her remarks about Kirk were valid criticisms of his extremist views and that she was merely speaking out against the normalization of hate and bigotry in American politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is about holding people accountable for their words and actions,\u201d Omar said in an interview following the controversy. \u201cCharlie Kirk is not a victim here. He is someone who has spread dangerous rhetoric that has incited violence and division in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Democrats also pointed out the hypocrisy in the GOP\u2019s push to expel Omar, highlighting the fact that several Republican lawmakers have engaged in controversial behavior without facing similar calls for removal.<\/p>\n<p>They argued that the focus on Omar was a distraction from the real issues facing the country, such as healthcare, climate change, and income inequality.<\/p>\n<p>The ongoing clash over Omar\u2019s remarks is not just a battle over her fate in Congress, but a larger struggle for the soul of the Democratic Party. The controversy has exposed rifts between moderates and progressives, with some Democrats arguing that Omar\u2019s confrontational style and rhetoric undermine the party\u2019s ability to build a broad coalition.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, Omar has become a symbol for progressive activists who see her as a champion for marginalized communities and a voice for the voiceless. Her critics, however, view her as a radical who has no place in mainstream politics.<\/p>\n<p>For Republicans, the effort to expel Omar is part of a broader strategy to align the party with populist and nationalist sentiments. By pushing for Omar\u2019s removal, they seek to galvanize their base and stoke outrage among voters who feel that the progressive left has taken over American institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The battle over Omar\u2019s place in Congress is likely to intensify as the 2024 election season approaches. With both sides using her as a political pawn, the stakes could not be higher.<\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump\u2019s calls for Ilhan Omar\u2019s expulsion from Congress have sparked a fierce political battle that cuts to the heart of America\u2019s current ideological divide.<\/p>\n<p>For Trump and many Republicans, Omar\u2019s comments about Charlie Kirk and her broader progressive agenda make her unfit to serve in Congress. For Democrats, Omar is a victim of a coordinated effort to silence her voice and discredit her politics.<\/p>\n<p>The push to remove Omar is unlikely to succeed in the Democratic-controlled House, but it underscores the growing polarization in American politics and the intensifying battles over free speech, representation, and accountability.<\/p>\n<p>As the debate rages on, one thing is clear: the fight over Ilhan Omar\u2019s place in Congress is about far more than one individual\u2014it is about the future direction of American politics and the values that will define the country in the years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein cut ties with Bill Clinton because he thought the former president was a liar, according to new emails his estate turned over to Congress on Wednesday.
