Donald Trump doesn't want to release the Epstein files because he's in the files.
Trump is in the files because he was "best friends" with Epstein for years.
He was "best friends" with Epstein for years because they were abusing women and girls together.
His attacks won't change any of that.

In case folks forgot what happened, Khashoggi entered a Saudi consulate in Istanbul to get a document so he could get married while his fiancée waited outside. He never left because he was murdered and dismembered with a bone saw inside the building. The US intel community said MBS ordered it.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

We’re going to war because the president doesn’t want you to look into how he allegedly raped children back in the day with his buddy Jeff, or how he’s shoveling money into his own pockets as he crashes the economy. Just focus on shooting brown people and war profiteering, would ya?
Trump just refused to rule out putting American troops on the ground in Venezuela. What the hell are we doing here?

"The message is not that Trump is innocent, it's that *everyone is guilty.* Everyone assaults women, cheats on their taxes, uses public office for private gain. Propriety and following the rules? That stuff is for suckers. In a world of grift and graft, the most corrupt man should be king."

Those rulings have come from 121 *different* judges appointed by seven presidents (including 15 appointed by Trump) sitting in 29 district courts in 10 circuits:
