The Biden White House and its media allies are at it again — pushing desperate, false narratives to attack President Donald Trump.
This week, former senior Biden aide Andrew Bates appeared on MSNBC to recycle the so-called “Epstein Files” smear, claiming — without a shred of evidence — that Trump is “terrified” of what’s in them.
It’s a pathetic political hit job, especially considering the Trump Justice Department already clarified over a month ago that there is no “client list” and no explosive Epstein documents worth releasing. The truth has been made public, but the Biden team and their allies at MSNBC refuse to let go of a debunked talking point.
Biden Ally Uses Epstein Conspiracy to Distract from Failing Economy
Bates, now a communications advisor for a left-wing group called The Cost Coalition, used his MSNBC appearance to tie Trump to Epstein while slamming his economic policies.
He accused Trump of breaking promises on inflation and called his tariffs “the biggest tax increase on working people since the 1930s.” In a wild twist, he compared Trump’s handling of tariffs to his handling of the Epstein story — claiming the President thinks Americans are “stupid” and won’t notice the truth.
MSNBC and Steele Join the Pile-On
Joining the attack, former RNC Chair-turned-MSNBC pundit Michael Steele suggested Trump’s tariff revenues might be overturned in court if companies win lawsuits. Steele claimed this would undercut Trump’s ability to pay for his tax cuts, ignoring how tariffs have already brought billions into the U.S. economy and strengthened America’s hand in trade talks.
Bates then went even further — making the baseless claim that Trump’s tariffs are designed to put money “into the pockets of billionaire donors” allegedly tied to Epstein. No proof. No facts. Just the same recycled smear strategy Biden’s team has been using for years.
Why the Biden Team is Desperate
With the economy rebounding, the border being secured, and America’s global standing improving under Trump, Biden’s political operatives are running out of ammunition.
That’s why they keep going back to long-debunked conspiracies, hoping to distract voters from Biden’s own failures — including inflation spikes, international weakness, and ongoing scandals involving his own family’s foreign business deals.
The bottom line: Biden’s allies in the media are using MSNBC to push lies about Trump, hoping Americans forget the real issues. But voters over 50 — the people who know the value of facts and results — see right through it.
Isn’t that defamation and slander? Can’t Trump sue for both for the lies the Biden administration is spreading with out proof and or facts? It’s past time to shut these people down.
