The Washington Post fact checks new claims that Donald Trump was more closely tied to deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein but finds no links.
“That hasn’t stopped Democrats — perhaps seeking to distract from President Biden’s travails — from suggesting on social media that there’s a disturbing connection between the former president and a sex predator. Some social media posts have claimed that Trump was mentioned in a draft indictment released last week, but that’s false.”
“Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald journalist whose diligent reporting forced a reopening of the Epstein case, has valiantly tried to point out the errors on X, but the misinformation keeps spreading.”
Said Brown: “I’ve come to believe that the American public won’t pay for the truth. They would rather believe the lies they get for free on the internet.”
