Chapter 1: What promises has Trump failed to keep?

0.149 - 20.535 Ben Meiselas

I know with all of the devastation and destruction Donald Trump has caused in the United States and the world, it can be easy to forget all of his broken promises. Like, I'm sure you remember his broken promise that he would bring down prices on day one, but he's now caused prices to rise. Or he said he would make housing more affordable. Housing is less affordable.

He said he would end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours or even before he took office. And of course, he's made things worse there and he just whines about it now. But you also remember the promise that he made that he was going to release certain files. Remember those?

Maybe Donald Trump was hoping that in all of the chaos and destruction and market crashes and economic crashes, we'd forget that we would just not report about it anymore. Sorry, Donald. The Midas Touch Network, where are the media now? And you know who brought up those files, Donald? You know the ones I'm talking about. Nancy Mace, MAGA Republican Congresswoman.

Right before our eyes. And they are doing this in real time with regards to the Epstein list, which the government still has not released today. And the American people deserve to know who rich and powerful is on that list and who the government is. is covering up for.

87.086 - 113.342 Ben Meiselas

Hmm, I could think of someone whose name is on that list. Aha, it's on the list right there, Donald. There's your name. That's on Jeffrey Epstein's phone number list of the people whose numbers he had on his Rolodex. That was already released in connection with some of the other cases that he was involved in. Oh, there you are again, Donald, on the flight logs.

113.382 - 135.664 Ben Meiselas

Your name appears on the Epstein Jets flight logs at least seven times. What's that, Donald? Is that your name on deposition transcripts where some of the women that Epstein trafficked went to... hotels and casinos that you owned. And the woman who were trafficked talked about that in depositions. Oh, wait, wait a minute, Donald.

136.104 - 167.427 Ben Meiselas

At Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal trial for sex trafficking on behalf of Epstein, where she was found guilty and basically put in jail for the said that Epstein introduced her to you. She goes by a Jane Doe. Oh, wait a minute, Donald. You appear to be everywhere on what's already been released over and over again. So what about in the files that you said you were going to release? Pam Bondi?

168.428 - 193.955 Ben Meiselas

Your attorney general, she's made 5,000 appearances on Fox. But in terms of the new Epstein files released, zero. New Epstein prosecutions, zero. Oh yeah, what about fraud prosecutions from Doge? Zero. Oh, yeah, Donald, during the 2024 campaign, weren't you flying around in Epstein's jet as well?

Chapter 2: Why is the Epstein file controversy significant?

My cat's favorite flavor is smooth fish, and my cats prefer Smalls way more than their previous cat food. I legitimately did a taste test, put two bowls side by side, and they immediately went to Smalls. Since making the switch to Smalls, my cat has had fewer hairballs, more balanced energy, a healthier weight, a softer and shinier fur coat, and a less stinky litter box that's big.

Still not a believer in Smalls? Well, New York Magazine called Smalls the best cat food, according to veterinarians. While Buzzfeed said, my cats went completely ballistic for this stuff. My cat's breath is much better and their fur is much softer ever since I switched to Smalls. Smalls also has a bunch of amazing treats and snacks that you can add to your order.

Interesting. Now, why don't I share with you this clip that MSNBC put together about Trump's relationship with Epstein. Let's play it.

563.555 - 582.545 Advertisement Narrator

You're going to get great ratings in your show. Trump is surrounded by women as music blares in the background. After a while, Trump goes to greet three new guests. Among them, the financier Jeffrey Epstein. Come on in. More than a decade before his guilty plea on state prostitution charges.

583.105 - 604.367 Advertisement Narrator

Later in the footage, Trump is seen talking to Epstein and another man as women are dancing in front of them. Trump alternates between dancing and pointing out women to Epstein and the other man and telling Epstein about the cameras. Though exactly what they say is difficult to understand as they discuss the women and their appearances.
