NYT Discovers Trump's Name in Epstein Files, Ignores Everyone Else
While the NYT breathlessly highlights Trump's alleged mentions (again, alleged , per the files themselves), they seem less keen to dissect the power networks that protected Epstein for decades – networks that transcend individual politicians. These files, part of the 2015 defamation lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell, were sealed for years for 'privacy' reasons, reminding us exactly whose privacy
is prioritized. The pattern is clear: focus on one boogeyman, ignore the swamp. One might wonder if the New York Times intends to thoroughly investigate every single individual named, however obliquely, in the Epstein documents, or if this is merely selective outrage. Is the goal truly accountability, or just clickbait tailored for a specific political agenda? After all, an indictment of the
powerful few is less disruptive to the status quo than an indictment of the system itself.
