United States president Donald Trump, during his Campaign 2024 promises, expressed determination to uncover the truth with the Epstein Files. Instead of doing that, he put forth one distraction after another. That included his bogus claim that it is nothing and, if his “MAGA” supporters are not accepting of this, they are doing the Democrats’s work.
My take on the case with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is that, yes, he was murdered and, no, TPTB intend to make sure the truth—including his clients list (which may include Trump)—never sees light. Just like the people of wealth connected with the child predatorial ring, which included the rapes of children, fifty years ago on North Fox Island in 1970s Michigan. Its leader, wealthy philanthropist Francis Shelden, was never caught, escaped the U.S., and died in 1996.
Another distraction of Trump’s is with trying to steal U.S. House seats in states normally aligned Republican for U.S. President so the 2026 Democrats either don’t flip the lower chamber of Congress…or they don’t win as many net gains. (Some Democratic-aligned states’s governors have said they are prepared to counter by doing the same against the Republicans.)
In early-August, Trump fired the labor statistics commissioner, Erika McEntarfer, due to the July 2025 jobs numbers report. As if this action by Trump is a win for people, including those who will vote in the 2026 midterm elections, because they would supposedly embrace this incumbent party.
I must confess that none of this is surprising. But, I care. And it is upsetting.
I am reminded, in some way, how the presidencies of Joe Biden and Donald Trump—Parts I and II—are not meaningfully different. They are both authoritarians. They are terrible U.S. presidents. And their leadership intentionally hurts particular people via their policies.
Next year will be the 250th anniversary of the signing of The Declaration of Independence. When that date arrives, and given what has become of the United States, having a sense of humor will not only be helpful but also necessary.
