    President Trump suggests Biden administration put his name in Epstein files as pay back

    U.S. President Donald Trump has suggested that the Biden administration may have put his name in criminal case files related to deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

    Sitting next to British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer during an hour-long media brief in Scotland, Trump called the continuing upror over the case of Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, “a hoax that’s been built up way beyond proportion” and accused his predecessor of having tampered with the infamous case files.

    “Those files were run by the worst scum on Earth. They were run by Comey, they were run by Garland, they were run by Biden, and all of the people that actually ran the government, including the auto pen. Those files were run for four years by those people. If they had anything, I assume they would have released it,” Trump said Monday.

    The president made his claims a week after a Wall Street Journal report stated that officials told him his name was in the files.

    Trump’s administration has created uproar among its base after a July memo from the Department of Justice that stated that Epstein had no so-called “client list” and that no more information would be released.

    That was after Attorney General Pam Bondi had claimed for months that officials were reviewing documents. The decision not to release more information was met with anger, and Democrats and Republicans have called on Trump to release more from the investigation.

    On Monday, Trump also suggested that his adversaries could have “easily put something in the files that’s a phony” and compared the hypothetical result of such tampering to the infamous, salacious and unverified dossier on his alleged links to Russia that was compiled by ex-MI6 officer Christopher Steele during the 2016 presidential election.

    “Christopher Steele, as an example, wrote a book a dossier. We call it the fake news dossier. And the whole thing was a fake. The whole thing was a fake. They could put things in the file that are fake, but those files were run by bad, sick people,” he said.
