Epstein V: Is Murdoch Dumping Trump?

FOX played along, but the Wall Street Journal may have just filed for divorce.

There’s no way in Hell that Rupert Murdoch (and his sons) didn’t clear the tonight’s damning “birthday card” story on Trump and his buddy Jeffery Epstein. And the ramifications of that story are enormous.

But, let’s stick with the story itself, first. The WSJ has a birthday card from Trump to Epstein in 2003. It has a crude drawing of a naked woman (in Sharpie) with this chef’s kiss finish:

I mean, just fucking wow.

That line could launch a million conspiracy theories on it’s own.

Just IMAGINE if someone had unearthed a bound book of Epstein’s 50th birthday cards with that from Bill Clinton.

FOX News ad buyers could take a six month vacations and simply have interns take in all the Peyronie's disease, home bunker, and crypto ad buy orders. To say that that line is explosive in this environment is like how explosive seemed when gun powder was ignited.

It is huge.

There has been rumors of something coming since yesterday. And that’s obviously because Trump and the editor of the WSJ have talked — Trump trying to keep the story from going public.

A little context beyond the money quote:

It contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly “Donald” below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.

The letter concludes: “Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.”

The letter was solicited by Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s girlfriend and associate, the Journal reported, and was put in a leather-bound album with other messages for Epstein on his 50th birthday.

This may not be some new smoking gun, some new revelation from another victim. But, it’s actually much bigger than that.

I’m no Murdoch expert, but I know enough to understand that this is a critical turning point. Save the editorial page, the WSJ is a very, very respected paper. They would not run this story if it wasn’t rock solid.

But, beyond that, they would not run such an explosive story in the middle of a fire without the consent of Murdoch & Sons. And they know exactly what that means.

Since theTrump edict to forget Epstein a few days ago, FOX has basically acquiesced. The real scandal has been Joe Biden and his auto pen.

Old Man Murdoch is a newspaper guy at heart. He’s always had more of a hand in print than anything else — it’s his first propaganda love. But that doesn’t mean him and the kids don’t interject in TV.

If this was something like a shot across the bow on tariffs, you might be able to discount it. But, it’s not. And like a trapped animal Trump immediately came out and threatened to sue with all the intellectual prowess of said animal:

“I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women,” he told the Journal. “It’s not my language. It’s not my words.”

He added: “I’m gonna sue The Wall Street Journal just like I sued everyone else.”

Murdoch & Sons know Donald Trump. Like most establishment figures in conservative politics they think he’s a crude idiot. They fully understand that all he can do in this situation is to lash out, make the story bigger and dig his whole deeper.

Is FOX News next? Can they bend reality and get another day on the Biden auto pen controversy? Or will they be told to make an end of it?

This is one hell of a clusterfuck.

Because on the Newsmax/OANN side of the equation the Epstein conspiracy fanatics are kinda pushing the anti-Trump line right now. FOX is worried about that audience — and why they had doubled-down on pure Trump propaganda.

We shall see. But, the chances that FOX turns on Trump on this issue have risen exponentially. And you just can’t measure the magnitude if that happens.

This is some crazy shit. And I am fucking here for it.
