Epstein dodged questions about his personal relationship with Trump.

A video of a Jeffrey Epstein deposition from March 17, 2010 recently resurfaced, relayed by MeidasTouch and reported by HuffPost, in which Epstein is questioned about his ties to Donald Trump.

The convicted sex offender was asked about his "personal relationship" with the future president in this 2010 deposition video.

Breaking down the tape

In the video, Epstein is asked whether he had a « personal relationship » with Donald Trump and whether they had ever socialized together.

To these questions, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender replied, « Yes, sir. »

Increased questioning

Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of 18

After again answering in the affirmative when asked by the questioner to confirm his answer, Epstein was then asked a more specific question.

He is then asked if these moments of socializing with Donald Trump had involved the presence of girls under the age of 18: « Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of 18? »

Epstein then responds enigmatically, beginning by saying he’s like to answer the question, just to invoke his Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights in order not to answer.

Consistently vague

This video reaffirms the ambiguity surrounding the relationship between Trump and Epstein from the 1980s to 2005. While Trump now seeks to downplay their friendship, he finds himself at the center of a controversy, with his administration accused of trying to discreetly close the Epstein files, a subject that has long fueled conspiracy theories and raised doubts about Trump’s potentially criminal past. Trump and Epstein’s relationship was well documented in the 90s and early 2000s, but the Trump administration is working to dispel any connection between the two.

A few days after the President of the United States downplayed the violation of Polish airspace on September 10 as a « mistake », a new episode has occurred.

This time, a Russian drone flew over Romanian airspace for almost an hour.

Romania reported that a Russian drone had flown through its airspace on Saturday. The incident came days after Russian drones entered Poland’s airspace.

The second incident took place in Romanian airspace on September 14. Two F-16s followed the aircraft closely for a total of 50 minutes, according to the authorities.

Russian attack in Ukraine

According to the Ministry of Defense, these fighters were monitoring a Russian attack in Ukraine and were able to track the drone as it crossed the southern border into Romania.

On the night of September 10, a fleet of 19 to 23 Russian drones penetrated Polish airspace, some as far as 300 km inside the country. An interception was launched, several drones were shot down, and Prime Minister Donald Tusk claimed they posed a direct threat.

Questioned by journalists, Donald Trump reacted by saying that the incursion could be « a mistake », while adding that he was not satisfied with the situation.

This prompted a reaction from Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk:

« We also wish the drone attack against Poland was a mistake. But it isn’t. And we know that. »

NATO’s reaction

Following this deliberate violation of NATO airspace, the alliance reacted swiftly. It announced the launch of Operation Eastern Sentry, designed to reinforce air defense on its eastern flank.
