I think Melania is an extremely clever lady who has been playing the long game. Surely it is the only explanation.
Words you don’t often see now.
Good Morning Monday 29th June 2026
Her out-of-the-blue announcement denying any connection with the late Jeffrey Epstein has certainly brought the whole scandalous mess back into the media spotlight.
The Iran-USA-Israel war had submerged the Epstein business but the First Lady's attention-grabbing speech has put her husband's friendship/involvement with a very rich, very convicted paedophile right back at the top of the agenda.
Is this her idea of defending her husband? Or has she got a more sinister motive?
It seems beyond bizarre.

I for one was referring to Clinton male rather than Clinton female, a man who like Trump has already demonstrated his predatory nature. Male abusive sexual behaviour isn't dependent on the politics of the male involved.
Given his age and incapacity. I suspect she is working on the basis that his life expectancy is relatively short, she is much younger and the will is in her favour.
"He’s spent the past six weeks trying to bomb this Epstein story out of the headlines. Two days after the cease-fire, she puts it right back on top. She must really hate him. I don’t know how else to explain it.” notes Jimmy Kimmel
I saw reports of her speech last night. Everyone on this side of the pond is
. They have spent months trying to distract us from the files and then she just, brings them up?
I can only imagine what they are trying to distract from now, though he didn't appear to be in the know when she held it?
Jokes are that the orange war is so unpopular, they are trying to distract us from it. Who knows?
(My phone autocorrected to orange war and it fits so I am leaving it
)
ronib, the Clintons aren’t the current Potus or First Lady.
They’re irrelevant so far as the wars Trump is waging
I am not sure why Hillary was brought into this. Especially since she sat down for Congress and answered all their questions. For over a decade, we keep hearing "but Hilary!" everytime Trump or Melania does something. Same as we hear it's Biden's fault,.or Obama's fault. Frankly, I can't take anyone seriously who so thoroughly can't grasp that Trump and Milania are just not good people trying to go good things for the world.
Melania is no victim, there are multiple photos and account of her knowing, meeting, and spending time with Epstein and Maxwell, taken long before AI.
"To better understand Hillary Clinton’s implication in the Epstein scandal, the News reviewed all documents containing the term “Hillary” within the Epstein files. Of the 1,203 files mentioning “Hillary” — as of Feb. 25 — the News recorded 802 unique documents specifically referencing Hillary Clinton. Each relevant file was then categorized by content, medium and time period.
The News’ analysis revealed that the files contained zero verified in-person or digital communications between Hillary Clinton and Epstein directly. "

Here are the videos of her (and his) testimony.

Trump is definitely dangerous. He has caused chaos across the middle east and angers virtually everyone.
It needs a cool head to lead a country like the US. Trump is volatile, can't take advice or criticism and is only interested in himself.
The US deserves so much better.

Much of what Trump says is the stuff of fantasy
Much of what he does is not. He is a dangerous man.
He is a dangerous man.
Everyone is fearful of Trump - those in the inner circle tread softly, obsequiously, around him. No-one dares contradict him. His 'faith advisor' or whatever she's called hovers over him like a ministering angel whilst his staff circle round him in prayer. They touch his shoulder. He sits there with that almost permanent belligerent pout soaking it up. He is being treated like a Deity.
They are feeding his narcissistic egomania and he believes he's omnipotent - because no-one will risk incurring his wrath by speaking against him.
You can see how he reacts when he doesn't get his own way - that expletive-ridden threat to bomb Iran back to the stone-age... the ease with which he talks about slaughtering possibly millions of people.
He's a ticking time bomb, and he's bloody dangerous.
I think it is really clear that Clinton was certainly involved with young women connected to epstein, I think it is likely that that is the same for Trump, neither mandelsson or andrew have faced any sort of charges for sexual crimes, it is for the sharing of information. Obviously andrew paid damages which in my view indicates guilt, but thats almost by the by. No men has been charged with any sexual crimes connected to epstein so the fact that Clinton hasn't , doesn't in my view indicate a great deal.
Yes, the game is certainly still being played out. Only the picture cards are left now. I think we know who they are, without employing super powers.
Casdon sorry but am reserving my super powers to play with my grandchildren.
The game is still being played out.

You need to stop these fantasies ronib. If there was enough to condemn the Clintons, it would already have gone exactly the same for them as it has for Andrew and Mandelson. There is nothing Trump would want the DoJ to release more than dirt on Clinton - other than dirt on Obama.

While a lot of young vulnerable girls were are, and probably always will be, trafficked for sex. There is also a cohort of older women who get involved with these vile networks of predatory men for what they can get out of it and the stakes are high.
Every billionaire seems to have a bimbo wife hanging off their arm. Perhaps Melania Trump is too old to be described as a bimbo, her connection was legalised and it has lasted, which is more than can be said for most of these marriages.I always feel its a mixture of
knowing which side her bread is buttered
and
fear of consequences of splitting - Trump's not one to take it lightly, massive offence to ego and so on.
I mean, just imagine...no, don't lets go there..

Wyllow I've thought that for a long time.
Melania is very impassive. We rarely see her true self, except perhaps when she is chatting to children when she seems relaxed and smiling.

Who put up the videos on X , what are there motives I wonder?
There are multiple photos of POTUS, FLOTUS, Epstein and Maxwell together, some of which were shown on Breakfast News this morning. These have been around for decades.
Well, just because they met socially as couples does not mean she was involved in any way.
Is this her idea of defending her husband? Or has she got a more sinister motive?
She is distancing herself from her husband. She knows he's on his way out and has probably only stayed with him firstly because he probably threatened her that she would lose custody of their child and now the child is an adult, she may be fearful of what Trump is capable of. He has no loyalty, perhaps he has made threats.
That is just a theory of course.
Over 800 times for Hilary and over 1100 for Bill Clinton.
How often has Hilary Clinton been mentioned in the files so far?
Am waiting for Hilary Clinton’s similar rebuttal….

There have been multiple videos on X showing FOTUS with Epstein.
Were they AI? who knows 🤷♀️
If that is the case then why hasn't the First Lady taken legal action?
Or would that open the biggest can of worms that the White House has ever had to deal with?
Et tu Melania 
A video of a man killing a woman with a hammer! How does Trump get away with this. If it was directed at Melania he needs so be sectioned.
It makes a change for a different Trump to be the 'headline'.
