39. This one particular account of Epstein's depravity is one that Democrats would be wise
Sun Feb 1, 2026, 10:20 AM
Feb 1

to take with a large grain of salt, and there's a LOT of reasons for that. And Bondi keeps putting things about this Katie Johnson case out there in releases. I don't think there really *is* a Katie Johnson (or Tiffany Doe) in real life. To be clear, I specifically think this is *not* a woman making up a false story, I think the woman in the video is an actor, and it was a hoax perpetrated by Lubow,, for money, and to hurt Trump politically, basically.

Does not at all mean I'm saying ALL accounts are like this, this is a very unique and particular case. Everything about it is sketchy. The fact that Bondi keeps putting info from this case out, even though it appears to be very bad for Trump, suggests to me that she knows the same. I think she knows it was judged as not credible in the past by the DoJ, which makes me think the GQP is up to something. Maybe they want us to try to hang this on Trump and end up looking bad when people like Lynch and Garland get on the stand and go "this was judged to be not credible" by DoJ.

The fact that the GQP are holding upcoming hearings that include basically all Trump's "Deep State" enemies on the general topic of "DoJ response to Epstein case", I'm thinking through what happens surrounding this particular account and WHY Bondi keeps putting docs about it into the releases. At minimum I think they want to be able to point at it and gloat and say "look, people make up all kinds of crazy stories about Trump", and attack Lynch for not "clearing Trump's name" and/or "going after the person(s) who committed perjury against him".

Epstein and Maxwell themselves are guilty as fuck of all sorts of crimes, so "It" is NOT a nothingburger, but THIS account? I've judged it, after a LOT of thought and research, to be very likely to be made up. An opportunistic piggyback onto a true story, if you will.
