Welcome, everybody to the Jim Acosta show. It is Wednesday joining me, as you can see, Don Lemon and Senator Elizabeth Warren joining me in just a few moments from now.

But Don, a huge bombshell in the Wall Street Journal. This is why Trump was wrong to sue the Wall Street Journal. Never pick a fight with a man who buys ink by the barrel, as they say.

This big bombshell just dropped a few moments ago, Don, the Wall Street

Journal saying Justice Department officials reviewed what Pam Bondi called a truckload of documents

related to Jeffrey Epstein earlier this year. They discovered that Donald Trump's name appeared

multiple times, according to senior administration officials. In May, Bondi and her deputy

informed the president at a meeting in the White House

that his name was in the Epstein files.

And I see your jaw dropping.

My jaw is dropping, too.

Jim, you're breaking news to me.

This is breaking news.

I just put, Justice Department told Trump in May that his name is among many in the Epstein files.

Many, yep. And, yeah, I, I'm just as astounded as you are. I mean, I guess we're not that astounded. I mean, I think we all knew that his name was in the Epstein

files. I guess what's amazing to me is Pam Bondi and the DOJ told him that he's in the

Epstein files. And this explains the entire freak out ever since. It explains all of it.

Now it all makes sense. Even though we had thought about it, and people would say, well, we don't

know it's speculation, whatever. It's that what else couldn't be right yeah he's hiding something both things could be true

he could be hiding something and it could not be as salacious or as big a big a bombshell as they had

been promoting it uh they had been touting for years and years saying oh to, it's a Democrats, much like Pizza Gate.

But now, now I understand why he is going to the extremes and the really dangerous extreme.

Dangerous extremes.
