In a striking social media post, Roger Stone, a prominent advisor to Trump and a well-known figure within the GOP, claimed that several high-profile Democrats will be implicated in forthcoming documents related to the Epstein scandal. Discussion around Jeffrey Epstein’s connections has intensified, with Democrats frequently trying to pin guilt on Trump. Yet, many Republicans have pointed fingers at several leading Democrats who have been closely linked to Epstein.
Stone didn’t hold back, specifically naming political heavyweights such as Bill Clinton, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, U.S. Senator George Mitchell, and Democratic donor Bill Gates. He controversially stated, “Which will fail those on Epstein client roster are all democrats.”
Adding weight to Stone’s remarks, U.S. Representative James Comer from Kentucky identified Bill Clinton as a key figure deserving investigation. He voiced his belief that “Everybody in America wants to know what went on in Epstein Island,” labeling Clinton as a prime suspect for the House Oversight Committee’s upcoming hearings. Comer expressed hope for a successful court battle over a subpoena for Clinton’s testimony, saying, “So, hopefully, we’ll win that court battle with that subpoena and see President Clinton in October.” Comer, who has held the chairmanship of the committee for a year and a half, remarked, “I’ve never lost a subpoena battle…this is the most challenging subpoena I’ve ever issued, but what makes this subpoena different is that the Democrats voted with Republicans.”
Trump himself weighed in on Larry Summers, indirectly linking him to Epstein. He quipped, “Bill Clinton was on his plane and went to the island, supposedly, 28 times. I don’t want to bring that up. Frankly, you have Larry, whatever his name is, Summers, the head of Harvard, who was Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend. Nobody ever talks about that. I mean, I don’t want to hurt Larry Summers, but he was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein.”
Moreover, Virginia Giuffre, a key accuser against Epstein, alleged that she was compelled to engage in sexual acts with high-profile individuals, including Governor Bill Richardson. Although Richardson denied these allegations before his passing last year, Giuffre confirmed under questioning that she had been instructed by Ghislaine Maxwell to provide a massage to him.
Meanwhile, George Mitchell vehemently contested any such claims. He insisted, “The allegation contained in the released documents is false. I have never met, spoken with, or had any contact with Ms. Giuffre. In my contacts with Mr. Epstein, I never observed or suspected any inappropriate conduct with underage girls.” His emphatic denial emphasizes the stakes involved, reflecting a desperate bid to distance himself from a scandal that threatens reputations and careers.
The denials continued from Richardson’s spokesperson, who stated, “Governor Richardson has never even been contacted by any party regarding this lawsuit. To be clear, in Governor Richardson’s limited interactions with Mr. Epstein, he never saw him in the presence of young or underage girls. Governor Richardson has never been to Mr. Epstein’s residence in the Virgin Islands. Governor Richardson has never met Ms. Giuffre.”
As the conversation around the Epstein scandal unfolds, the implications of these allegations—and the claims made by figures like Roger Stone and James Comer—continue to reverberate through the political landscape, drawing sharp lines between parties and spotlighting the intense scrutiny now aimed at several high-profile Democrats.
