The House Judiciary Committee Democrats have released a trove of evidence regarding allegations of sexual assault, including a new rape allegation, against President Donald Trump in relation to Jeffrey Epstein that the lawmakers say has been deliberately covered up by the Department of Justice.

The 50-page report, released Monday, contains testimony from 11 women who either accuse Trump of rape or sexual assault or say that they had been offered to Trump for sex by Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell, with most cases happening in the 1990s.

The accounts were pulled together through interviews conducted by the committee, as well as FBI records and the portion of the Epstein files that have been released; the evidence was cross-referenced for timelines and corroboration of testimony between alleged victims. In all, the evidence sharply contrasts Trump’s claims that he was merely an acquaintance of Epstein, and instead paints a picture of Trump as a serial sexual assault perpetrator who collaborated closely with Epstein to find and traffic victims.

    He’s a rapist who ran beauty pageants , we knew that when he was elected the first time, and we knew that when he was reelected.

    This is all information that was available to Democrats when it was Biden’s Justice Department, these are crimes from the 1990s.

    We know Trump is what he is. Release the Epstein files and stop protecting the other wealthy Lolita Express rapists… Bill Clinton was on the express many times, Gates, Dershowitz, Spacey, Prince Andrew, Tucker, John Glenn, and more.

    … and the frequent and infamous Epstein island parties had dozens of guests, all fabulously wealthy with many Hollywood celebrities. There’s so much that it staggers the mind.

    They’re pretending it’s Trump alone because they know he’s untouchable… reveal all of the people that aren’t Presidents, that the law can (theoretically) actually punish. They’re sitting on God knows how many hundreds of hours of testimony.

    This is a lackluster October Surprise without any surprises, I hope they have more to come.

    that the lawmakers say has been deliberately covered up by the Department of Justice.

    Why on earth would the Attorney General who is also Trump’s criminal defense lawyer cover up his crimes?

    Yesterday, MS Now said they had no evidence. I guess they’re not counting all of the victim’s testimonies. MS Now, you suck.

      They are neglecting their duty out of fear of being hit with a 10 billion dollar lawsuit, I mean even jesus had to do counseling at south park elementary as part of his lawsuit settlement.

      That and just a general cuntedness of them being owned by the oligarchy obviously.

    Assuming most if not all of these are past the statute of limitations and since rape cases are built for maximum victim torture and minimum perpetrator punishment there’s no hope for criminal justice. Are any of the victims willing to sue in civil court or are they all hiding from king sticky fingers?

      Every one that comes out commits “suicide” shortly after. Or experiences an accident. I don’t believe in accidents as such.

    Trump saying he did nothing is a lie. Testimony from “x number” of women accusing ::famous person:: of sexual misconduct are also probably lies.

    It’s lies all the way down.
