It has now been confirmed that the US invaders that crossed into Mexico to illegally place DOD signs on Mexican territory were US military contractors (possibly Marines disguised as civilians), the US has yet to issue an apology but admits to the action calling it a "mistake."

Q: What did Jeffrey Epstein mean in his emails when he said you knew about the girls?
Trump: I know nothing about that, they would have announced that a long time ago. We had a very bad relationship for many years.
Q: If there's nothing incriminating in the files -
Trump: QUIET.
