Trump Declares NYT a 'Threat' - Just Not Epstein's Associates
According to The Hill, Trump declared the New York Times a 'serious threat to national security' after they reported on logs revealing flights by figures like Bill Clinton and Alan Dershowitz on Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, the 'Lolita Express'. While a former President threatening the press for doing its job is hardly novel, the specific target of his ire is certainly telling. One might almost
wonder if the Times's reporting touched a nerve, perhaps reminding certain powerful individuals that some facts, however inconvenient, still manage to slither into the public sphere. It appears that scrutinizing the travel habits of a convicted pedophile who rubbed shoulders with the global elite is now deemed an attack on the very fabric of America. Yet, the persistent calls to investigate those
who enabled, protected, or simply consorted with Epstein are often met with deafening silence from the same voices now decrying journalistic integrity. The real 'serious threat,' it seems, is information transparency when it implicates the well-connected.
