Trump named in newly found Epstein accusation that officials sat on for 17 years: report

Newly unearthed court records reveal that in 2009, a woman accused President Donald Trump of having “knowledge” of Jeffrey Epstein’s “sexual desire for minor girls,” veteran journalist Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez wrote — an accusation she noted had been “available to law enforcement for 17 years.”

The accusation was discovered in a set of written answers provided by a woman who claimed to have been abused by Epstein as a minor between 2002 and 2005 at his home in Palm Beach, Florida. The filing is part of a lawsuit the woman, whose name is redacted in the document, brought against Epstein in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County.

1. This confirms what has been obvious all along

Trump had knowledge of everything Epstein was doing (whether he participated or not) and thus is extremely culpable for all the abuse Epstein (and whoever else) committed because he failed to report it to authorities. BTW, not reporting knowledge of abuse is itself a crime. Key paragraphs from this article:

The set of written answers was in response to questions provided by Epstein and his attorneys, according to the filing, one of which asked the woman to “list the names of all persons who are believed or known by you to have any knowledge concerning any of the issues in this lawsuit.”

The woman’s attorney or attorneys responded with a list of more than 50 names. Fifth on that list was “Donald Trump,” written more than seven years before he would become president.

Next to the listed names was a brief description of their knowledge concerning the lawsuit; one was accused by the woman of arranging for “underage girls to go to and from Jeff’s island,” and another, of being “Epstein’s house manager during [the] time our client went to him.” Trump was explicitly accused of having “knowledge of finances and [Epstein’s] sexual desire for minor girls.”

Who were the other 49 names on that list of 50? And what were the brief descriptions of them?

7. The 'other 49?'

Hmmmm, lemme’ guess……….
What about Senator ?????
Oh, wait, don’t forget Congressman ?????
And, of course it couldn’t be XXXX - he’s one of our biggest campaign donors!

14. I can think of a couple (or more)

sitting on SCOTUS right now....

10. It is more than that. Trump was personally involved

is the sweetheart deal that gave Epstein the "punishment" of sleeping at a government facility most nights, but being free to go as he pleased during the day.

Trump appointed Alex Acosta as Sect of Labor because Acosta knew the whole deal with Epstein and Trump. Same reason he appointed Bondi as AG.

This is all right out in the open.

2. Drip, drip.

How long before talking about anything regarding trump/epstein is made illegal?

4. Everyone who helped hide the Epstein tapes is complicit

I hope the next Democratic administration will bring them all down and make sure they wind up in prison, where they belong. God knows those poor women have lived through hell and probably will for the rest of their lives. They deserve justice.

5. I've given up hope that anyone in the Epstein/tRmp pedo ring

will be held accountable. I’d really hoped this would be the thing that would be his downfall.

8. pin your hopes on his health

that seems like a good bet.

9. I'm not sure we can hold the lot of them criminally accountable unless we cut some ties with Israel

Epstein worked for Israel. AIPAC wants to look forward and move on.

11. Accountablility is for poor people.

We've created (by voting for these monsters) a system where the rich and powerful are basically above the law.

6. also was interviewed by the FBI

See last paragraph of story.

FBI would have saved themselves a world of hurt (meaning being inflicted with Kash Patel) if they'd only done a more thorough search prior to trump running for office.

13. If only-- but many in the FBI knew exactly what he was all about.

Remember he had backing from a bunch of MAGA FBI agents who helped get him elected. Remember them finding Hillary's emails on Anthiny Weiner's laptop that caused Comey to re-open the email investigation at the late stages of the 2016 campaign? It basically killed her chances of winning.

12. Unfortunately, the Justice Department and ohers . . .

. . . have been so hollowed out and replaced by evil people. I wonder how such a monumental, decades long infiltration can be reversed.

15. I'd pound the table day and night over this matter.

While economic disaster may split maga and split "independents", this will help.

They are not so smart. They are convinced that the Epstein Files will yet take down George Soros and Bill Clinton, and nobody else of interest.

EVERYTHING he has done since Jan 2025 has been to cover up his involvement with the Trump-Epstein illicit sex, blackmail and money-laundering empire. EVERYTHING.

16. He's a monster.

Case closed!

Even before anything ELSE is revealed in ongoing investigations.

But, apparently, everyone has to bend over backwards for the fantasy-world Americans who can NEVER admit they were wrong about anything! Not about slavery, Nixon, Iraq, Trump, or anything else! EVIDENCE be damned! Poor fragile-ego, tribalistic wimps!

18. Can these files be made fully public and not locked away like the other Epstein files?
