Trump RATTLED by the EPSTEIN Files | Blames Obama & Clinton for SABOTAGING MAGA

Donald Trump has denied any cover-up in the Epstein files case, blaming Democrats for manufacturing the controversy to tarnish his administration’s “perfect” image. He urged MAGA supporters to stop obsessing over Epstein, warning that they’re falling for left-wing distractions. Trump claimed the Obama-Clinton camp fabricated the scandal and questioned why Democrats hadn’t used any so-called “damaging files” earlier. Despite MAGA backlash, he defended allies like Pam Bondi, while others like Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon continue attacking the DOJ report. #Trump #EpsteinFiles #CoverUpClaims #MAGA #DOJReport #TuckerCarlson #SteveBannon #JeffreyEpstein #TrumpAdministration #TrumpDenies #EpsteinControversy #FakeScandal #MAGAResponse #PamBondi #KashPatel #DemocratPlot #ClintonObama #FBI #TrumpVsDeepState #PoliticalDrama #EpsteinDeath #ElectionDistraction #TrumpSpeaks #BreakingNews #ConspiracyTheories #WhiteHouseDefense Also Read US Will Send Patriot Missiles To Ukraine: Trump Takes U-Turn Over Arm Deliveries To Kyiv :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-send-patriot-missiles-to-ukraine-trump-takes-u-turn-over-arm-deliveries-to-kyiv-011-7800325.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Imposes 35% Tariff On Canadian Goods; Threatens More In Case of Retaliation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-imposes-35-tarifss-on-canadian-goods-threatens-more-in-case-of-retaliation-7797777.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Slaps 50% Tariff On Brazil Over 'Witch Hunt' Trial Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-slaps-50-tariff-on-brazil-over-witch-hunt-trial-against-bolsonaro-011-7796631.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~ED.103~

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X [Video]

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X

Trump In Epstein Trouble: A major rift has appeared within the MAGA movement as supporters turn on President Donald Trump. The controversy ignited after Trump publicly defended Attorney General Pam Bondi, a move seen by many conservatives as a dismissal of concerns surrounding the recently unsealed Epstein files. This defense has triggered an unprecedented backlash from his own base. The fallout has been swift and visual. Influential conservative figures have condemned Trump's stance, and viral videos have spread across social media showing die-hard supporters burning their MAGA hats and other merchandise in protest. This public display of disillusionment signals a deep fracture within what was once Trump's most loyal demographic. As Trump scrambles to control the narrative with a 400-word post on Truth Social urging unity, even figures like Elon Musk have taken public jabs at him over the issue. Sensing a critical moment of weakness, the Democratic party is moving quickly to capitalize on the Republican infighting. Former President Barack Obama is set to return to the political frontline, headlining a major fundraiser in New Jersey this Friday alongside DNC Chair Ken Martin. This event, Obama's first since the 2024 election, is designed to rally the Democratic base and frame the GOP's internal conflict as a major liability ahead of the crucial 2026 midterm elections. This report from Oneindia News breaks down the timeline of the MAGA backlash, Trump's attempts at damage control, and the strategic moves being made by Barack Obama and the Democrats. Stay tuned for the latest updates on this developing story in US politics. #DonaldTrump #MAGA #USPolitics #BreakingNews #OneindiaNews #EpsteinFiles #Obama #PamBondi #LatestNews #Politics #TrumpInEpsteinTrouble Also Read Trump Imposes 35% Tariff On Canadian Goods; Threatens More In Case of Retaliation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-imposes-35-tarifss-on-canadian-goods-threatens-more-in-case-of-retaliation-7797777.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Slaps 50% Tariff On Brazil Over 'Witch Hunt' Trial Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-slaps-50-tariff-on-brazil-over-witch-hunt-trial-against-bolsonaro-011-7796631.html?ref=DMDesc US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~

Trump DEFENDS Pam Bondi Amid Epstein Files Fury, Accuses ‘Selfish’ MAGA World Of Undermining Bondi

President Donald Trump vigorously defended Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein documents, accusing his own MAGA allies of orchestrating an unfair campaign against her. At a recent rally, he lambasted critics, saying they’re “all going after AG Pam Bondi” despite her "fantastic job." Trump blamed "selfish people" for obsessing over the Epstein Files—penned by Obama, Hillary Clinton, Comey, Brennan, and Biden appointees—rather than celebrating what he calls “the perfect administration.” He claimed MAGA is being undermined by endless distractions and urged focus on issues like border security, Energy Dominance, election fraud, and public safety. Trump dismissed calls for renewed scrutiny of Epstein, referencing fallout from alleged “fake dossiers” and expanded investigations. He praised Bondi’s ongoing work into the 2020 election and emphasized America’s resurgence. His remarks reignited MAGA infighting and shifted attention from past controversies to future political battles. #Trump #PamBondi #EpsteinFiles #MAGA #AGDefense #ElectionFraud #SelfishCritics #BorderSecurity #EnergyDominance #FEMA #MakeAmericaGreatAgain #TrumpRally #EpsteinDocs #ObamaComeyBrennan #FakeDossier #2020Election #MAGAConflict #ElectionInvestigation #TrumpSpeech #BondiDefense ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

US Breaking: ICE Agent Pulls Out Rifle on SF Protesters Outside  Courthouse | Woman Thrown from SUV [Video]

US Breaking: ICE Agent Pulls Out Rifle on SF Protesters Outside Courthouse | Woman Thrown from SUV

Chaos erupted on the streets of San Francisco on Tuesday as federal immigration agents clashed violently with protesters outside a city courthouse. The confrontation, now being called the most violent of its kind in the city this year, saw Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents using aggressive tactics against a group of approximately 20 demonstrators. The tense situation began around 11:18 a.m. when ICE agents attempted toescort a detained man from the courthouse. Protesters quickly formed a human chain, using their bodies and bicycles to block the exit while shouting anti-ICE slogans. In response, several agents, with their faces covered, were seen deploying pepper spray, pushing protesters to the ground with batons, and yelling expletives. The situation escalated dramatically when one agent brandished a rifle to intimidate the crowd. The most shocking moment occurred when a black SUV, reportedly waiting for the agents, sped through the crowd of protesters. Witnesses reported that a woman was thrown from the hood of the moving vehicle, which then almost ran her over a block away. This incident has sparked outrage and raises serious questions about the use of force by federal agents during public demonstrations in the United States. #SanFrancisco #ICE #USNews #Protest #BreakingNews #LatestNews #ViralVideo #OneindiaNews #Immigration #WorldNews Also Read ICE Allegedly Violated Rights of US Citizen and 21 Others During Arrests in Chicago :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ice-violated-rights-us-citizen-chicago-activists-allege-011-4097557.html?ref=DMDesc Zakir Hussain Faces Critical Health Challenges in San Francisco ICU Due to Heart Issues :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/zakir-hussain-heart-problems-san-francisco-011-4016713.html?ref=DMDesc Zakir Hussain Admitted to ICU in San Francisco Due to Heart Problems :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/zakir-hussain-heart-problems-san-francisco-011-4016689.html?ref=DMDesc

Trump Sends National Guard to Los Angeles: Violent Immigration Protests — Governor Newsom Hits Back

In a dramatic escalation, U.S President Donald Trump has deployed 2,000 California National Guard troops to Los Angeles—over the strong objections of Governor Gavin Newsom. The move follows two days of increasingly violent protests in the heavily Latino city of Paramount, where immigration raids have sparked clashes with Border Patrol agents in riot gear. Tear gas, flash-bangs, and burning streets set the scene as over 100 immigrants have already been arrested. #Trump #NationalGuard #LosAngelesProtests #GavinNewsom #ImmigrationRaids #ParamountProtests #BorderPatrol #Title10 #FederalVsState #LatinoCommunities #CivilUnrest #ImmigrationCrisis #TearGas #BreakingNews #USAPolitics Also Read ICE Allegedly Violated Rights of US Citizen and 21 Others During Arrests in Chicago :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ice-violated-rights-us-citizen-chicago-activists-allege-011-4097557.html?ref=DMDesc NASA's new water-scouting CubeSat is all set to find ice on the Moon :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/nasas-new-water-scouting-cubesat-is-all-set-to-find-ice-on-the-moon-3445560.html?ref=DMDesc Tropical fruit flavours ice cream for summer indulgence from Ibaco :: https://www.oneindia.com/partner-content/new-ice-cream-flavours-from-ibaco-for-the-summer-3398222.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.125~ED.346~

Can Pope Leo Xiv Lose US Citizenship After Becoming Vatican’s American-Born Head Of State?US-Vatican [Video]

Can Pope Leo Xiv Lose US Citizenship After Becoming Vatican’s American-Born Head Of State?US-Vatican

Pope Leo XIV, born Robert Prevost in Chicago, has become the first U.S.-born pontiff and now leads both the Holy See and Vatican City. His dual role as an American citizen and a foreign head of state raises legal and constitutional questions. While U.S. law allows for “active review” of such cases, experts say Leo’s citizenship is unlikely to be revoked unless he explicitly renounces it. The Vatican is a sovereign nation, and Leo holds dual citizenship with Peru as well. The U.S. State Department declined comment on his status. #PopeLeoXIV #VaticanCity #USCitizenship #RobertPrevost #AmericanPope #HolySee #CatholicChurch #PapalElection #DualCitizenship #VaticanNews #USLaw #CitizenshipReview #PopeAndPolitics #ChurchAndState #PeterSpiro #PapalHistory #PeruCitizenship #ConstitutionalLaw #USStateDepartment #InternationalLaw ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.122~
