CNN anchor visibly upset when analyst says outrage over Epstein files has not hurt Trump at all



While many on the left have hoped that the controversy over the Jeffrey Epstein files might have eroded support of President Donald Trump, a CNN analyst says there are zero signs of it happening.

Polling analyst Harry Enten went through the numbers to show Kate Bolduan that Americans had lost interest in the Epstein debacle and that the president had not lost any support over the issue.

'Donald Trump has some of the best political instincts of any politician I've seen, and in this particular issue you see it full well and clear.'

Bolduan appeared to be visibly disappointed as Enten ran through the polling results from the last few weeks.

"I would say that this is, from at least a political point of view, quickly turning into a dud of a story," Enten said.

"Which is wild to think where this has been for three weeks now," Bolduan responded.

Enten reported that the term "Epstein" was no longer the top term on Google search with the term "Trump," and searches for the two terms together have dropped by 89% from only three weeks ago.

"At this particular point, the American people's interest in this story, it's quickly becoming something of a nothingburger," Enten said.

He went on to point out that although Trump's popularity had dropped by one percentage point from July to August, his current approval rating of 44% is seven percentage points above that of his first term in the same month.

"So he's seven points higher, very much in a different political universe now, significantly higher in terms of his overall approval rating than he was in his first term," Enten explained.

Among Republicans, approval for the president is hovering near 90%, a record high.

"So yes, there used to be a lot of interest in this story, but the bottom line is that even among those who had high interest in this story, it wasn't something that they thought was all that important. ... The interest in this story has fallen off the table," he continued.

Bolduan pointed out that the attention congressional Democrats had put on the issue was "incongruous" with Americans' attitudes.

"I would just say this, Donald Trump has some of the best political instincts of any politician I've seen, and in this particular issue you see it full well and clear because he has been saying, 'This is a non-issue,' and it turns out that a lot of the American public actually seem to agree with him," Enten said.

"If you dream it, it will become," a defeated Bolduan said. "That's apparently the message."

Enten posted video of the segment to his social media account on Monday.

TRUMP and 4 'well-recognized' figures in mysterious SECOND EPSTEIN black book



A second “black book” that contains names and numbers of clientele belonging to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is about to be put up for auction — and Glenn Beck might just add it to his collection.

“I collect American history, and I collect it to preserve it. And I want to tell the whole story of American history. The good and the bad,” Glenn explains.

This is not the book Epstein had when he died but rather a book from around the year 2000 that he had lost. It was found in New York and has been verified as his handwriting and his book.

The person who had found it had reportedly put it in a box and left it in a storage unit before eventually bringing it to Alexander Historical Auctions.

“They put it up with unredacted names and numbers. You can’t see it, you can go and visit the book if you’re interested in buying it and look through it. You can’t take pictures of it or anything else,” Glenn says.

The book will reportedly go for between $100,000 and $200,000.

Each of the entries vary in length from only a few lines to over 10 or 15 lines or more and also each has several more names included. Additionally, 94 names bare black, hand-applied check marks, five have been highlighted in yellow.

All five of those names are “well-recognized financial and industrial figures,” and apparently, one of those names is Donald Trump.

While Glenn is interested, he’s more curious to know whether “this is a big thing just at the time” or whether it will aid in finding out whether Epstein "was an operative for our government or other governments.”

Stu Burguiere believes Glenn should place a bid.

“My instinct is yes, you should bid on it,” he tells Glenn. “Part of your mission statement over there is to preserve history that will be erased, and man, the Epstein thing falls directly in that category.”

SECOND Epstein Black Book For Sale?! Will Glenn BUY IT?

The real question: Who were Jeffrey Epstein's handlers?



While some names on the Jeffrey Epstein-related court documents have been released, unsurprisingly, not all of them have been.

Over 150 names were delayed by the court.

Though one of the names we do know is incredibly disturbing — former President Bill Clinton — Glenn Beck believes we need to focus our attention elsewhere.

“We have to stop asking, ‘I wonder who’s involved,’ and start asking, ‘Who has all of the information?’” Glenn says.

One man, former Trump intelligence official Kash Patel, claims to have the answer.

“That’s under direct control of the director of the FBI, just like the manifesto from the Nashville school shooting of the [Christian] school; we still haven’t seen that,” Patel tells Glenn.

“It’s not the Nashville police or PD saying we don’t want this out. The FBI airmailed into that operation and said, ‘This is not getting out,'" he adds. "Because they do that, because this is another government gangster operation."

Patel goes on to say that those who don’t cooperate don’t get money to their local districts.

“That’s how they play the game,” Patel explains.

Glenn is disturbed by the amount of power this gives unelected officials.

“So, your FBI director is the guy who has all the information,” Glenn says. “That is way too much power in an unelected official.”

“That book should be made public,” Glenn continues. “All of it. You know why we don’t trust our government? Because they’ve proven themselves to be liars, over and over and over again.”

Epstein flight logs SUBPOENAED, but what are the chances we actually see who’s on the list?



It’s been over three years since Jeffrey Epstein died in jail, and yet we still don’t know the contents of the infamous flight logs from his private jet, controversially named the “Lolita Express.”

Naturally, people want to know who flew on that plane, as it would likely lead to incriminating evidence attached to any number of politicians, billionaires, socialites, and celebrities.

But alas, the list remains under lock and key.

However, that could change, as Tennessee Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn filed a subpoena just a few days ago “demanding that Congress gain access to [Epstein’s] flight logs from his private plane,” reports Sara Gonzales.

“Since we're in the business of issuing subpoenas now, here are a few more that I filed: a subpoena to Jeffrey Epstein's estate to provide the flight logs for his private plane. Given the numerous allegations of human trafficking and sexual abuse surrounding Mr. Epstein, I think it is very important that we identify everybody that was on that plane and how many trips they took on that plane and the destinations to which they arrived,” Blackburn stated.

“I completely agree,” says Sara, but “I don't think we will ever see those names – ever, ever, ever.”

Blaze contributor and founder/owner of Rippaverse Comics Eric July agrees, adding, “It incriminates the wrong people.”

While there are likely many people on that list who perhaps are being protected, one person the current administration and the mainstream media would love to sabotage is Donald Trump, who is said to have flown on Epstein’s plane several times.

“They always want to tie Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein first,” says Sara.

“Okay, you know who also banned him from Mar-a-Lago and from staying in any of his properties?” she continues. “Donald Trump after he found out that Jeffery Epstein had done the things that he had done.”
