Trump then posted a comment on fighting back against the “Fake News Media”, “Think how wonderful it is to be able to fight back and show, to so many, how totally dishonest the Fake News Media really is. It may be the most corrupt and disgusting business (almost) there is! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Attorney General Bill Barr announced Saturday the FBI and the DOJ Inspector general will be investigating Epstein’s death in federal custody.
During the Clintons’ years in power in Arkansas and Washington, several people associated with the Clintons died under suspicious circumstances. Two of the most notable during the Clinton presidency were Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster, a boyhood friend of Bill and Rose Law firm associate of Hillary, whose July 20, 1993 death at age 48 was ruled a suicide and former Clinton business partner in Whitewater James McDougal, who turned state’s evidence against the Clintons and died of a heart attack at age 57 in federal prison on March 8, 1998 during the Clintons’ second term. Notably, McDougal’s ex-wife Susan McDougal refused to testify against the Clintons and was jailed 18 months for contempt. Bill Clinton pardoned Susan in his last hours as president in 2001. She is alive today.
