In this episode of The Lonely Liberal, we cut through the noise to unpack Donald Trump’s long and complicated history with Jeffrey Epstein, from their close friendship in the 1980s and early 2000s to the quiet shielding by Trump allies, including Pam Bondi and Speaker Mike Johnson, in 2025.

We examine the evidence, including newly released DOJ files, flight logs, the infamous “birthday book,” and key allegations. We also examine why the argument that “Biden would’ve leaked it if it were real” doesn’t hold up, and how the GOP has consistently applied a double standard in handling scandals for years.
