Vice President JD Vance has stepped up to assist Donald Trump as he becomes increasingly embroiled in the Jeffrey Epstein Files scandal. Due to the Department of Justice’s confirmation that it will not be releasing additional information on Epstein, the Trump administration is already receiving a lot of criticism from both his followers and his detractors.
There are also conjectures regarding the President’s attempts to conceal information that would provide additional insight into the nature of his relationship with Epstein, given the way the Trump administration has handled the entire matter and Trump’s prior connections with Epstein.
The argument, which is very obvious if you simply read what I said, is that the WSJ’s publication of a popular article without displaying the letter is fraudulent.
WSJ won’t show us the book, so I’m not sure if it exists. Since WSJ won’t show us the letter, I’m not sure if it exists. The following: https://t.co/u5uEYqahKT

When The Wall Street Journal revealed last week that Trump had signed a mysterious letter to Epstein for the book—written in the outline of a nude lady, according to The Daily Beast—the situation became even more heated. JD Vance, however, came out after the news broke and termed the article “complete and utter bullshit.” He also said that the source never displayed a copy of the aforementioned book.
But according to The Daily Beast, the Times released Ghislaine Maxwell’s book introduction on Thursday, stating that Trump’s name was listed among those who had contributed to the collection. Chris Hayes, the host of MSNBC, tagged Vance on X with the article links after this story.
Hayes added in his post, “Okay, so circling back here.” The argument is that the book is a complete fabrication. Or is it true that Trump is a contributor, or was a phony Trump letter written and inserted into the actual book?
After an hour or so, Vance responded, stating, The argument, which is very obvious if you simply read what I said, is that it is false for the WSJ to print a popular article without displaying the letter.
He went on to say, “WSJ won’t show us the letter, so I don’t know if it exists.” The notion that Donald Trump was writing poems to Epstein is ridiculous, and I think it’s equally ridiculous that a major American newspaper would criticize the US president without disclosing the reason.
It’s interesting that he remained silent about Maxwell’s letter being published in the Times. “We all know what’s going to happen,” Vance continued. They will spend days or weeks leaking small details in an attempt to undermine the president’s reputation.
He went on to say that until they had extracted all of the false information from the story, they will not show us this book or let us dispute it. And the fact that the Wall Street Journal is behaving like a Democratic SuperPAC will simply be forgotten. The president filed a lawsuit because it is shameful.
Rupert Murdoch, the proprietor of the Journal, has already been sued by Trump for defamation after he claimed that the article published by the publication was fraudulent.
