Trump Tries to Shift Focus With EU Deal — Melts Down When Asked About Epstein Files in Scotland
U.S President Donald Trump revealed what he called a “massive” new trade deal with the European Union — but the spotlight quickly shifted when a reporter asked about his long-rumored ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
The question ignited an instant reaction: “You’ve got to be kidding me.
No.
It had nothing to do with it.”
As Epstein headlines surge and scrutiny intensifies, Trump appears increasingly defensive.
Critics say the trade announcement was a distraction tactic.
Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet Donald Trump in Washington on Monday, but this time he won’t face him alone. At Zelensky’s request, top European leaders—including Ursula von der Leyen, Keir Starmer, Emmanuel Macron, Giorgia Meloni, Friedrich Merz, and NATO’s Mark Rutte—will join to shield him from another Oval Office humiliation. February’s chaotic meeting, where Trump and JD Vance mocked Zelensky, left deep scars. Now, Europe’s united front aims to counter Trump’s confrontational style and prevent a repeat embarrassment for Ukraine.

The talks will focus on security guarantees, future military aid, and Ukraine’s borders—underscoring deep transatlantic divisions over Trump’s push for compromise with Putin.

Melania Trump is threatening a $1 billion lawsuit against Hunter Biden over claims linking her to Jeffrey Epstein, which she calls false and defamatory. Biden allegedly stated Epstein introduced Melania to Donald Trump, remarks her lawyer Alejandro Brito says caused severe global reputational harm. Brito accuses Biden of relying on discredited Michael Wolff reports previously retracted by The Daily Beast. After missing an August 7 deadline for retraction and apology, Biden has been ordered to preserve all related records ahead of possible legal action.

Newly released photos from Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan mansion reveal a chilling and bizarre private world. The 40-room, $88 million townhouse was filled with disturbing items: a stuffed tiger, nudes, a suspended bridal sculpture, and dozens of prosthetic eyes. Letters, photos, and CCTV cameras hint at secretive surveillance and high-profile connections, including a cropped photo hiding Ghislaine Maxwell next to Trump and Melania. Epstein’s grotesque decor and guest list raise haunting questions about what really happened behind closed doors.

Country singer Alexis Wilkins has broken her silence after becoming the center of an online firestorm accusing her of being a Mossad agent "honeypotting" FBI director Kash Patel. Speaking on the Megyn Kelly Show, the 26-year-old strongly denied the bizarre conspiracy theory, calling it “incredibly disheartening.” The rumors intensified after a Justice Department memo on Jeffrey Epstein debunked claims of a hidden client list. Conspiracy theorists shifted their focus to Wilkins, citing her ties to conservative nonprofit PragerU, whose CEO once served in the Israeli army.
However, Wilkins, who is Armenian and Christian, rejected the narrative, saying critics are tying “pieces of evidence” together “in all the wrong ways.” She emphasized her genuine relationship with Patel, whom she met in Nashville in 2022. “He’s honest, patriotic, and has incredible integrity,” she said. Despite their 19-year age gap, Wilkins insists the connection is real—and not a covert operation.
