Conservative influencers seen leaving the White House with binders labeled ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1.’ was roundly mocked online today, and rightly so.

I take no pleasure in bringing you these stories about the things being done in the Trump administration, from the Golden Goat to the Golden Statue of King Trump, it’s safe to say they are off to a very bad start. Today they promised to release the long-hidden and equally long-awaited Jeffrey Epstein files, what they actually released were silly binders that looked like they were assembled by high school interns, labeled ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1’. What was contained in those silly binders caused an outrage online due to their lack of any meaningful content.

“Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.” Proverbs 23:23 (KJB)

Glenn Beck had this to say about ‘The Epstein Files – Phase 1’: “Who is subverting POTUS? The #Epsteinfiles are a total joke. I know Kash, Pam B and The President. This is not the file. WH tells me that they believe the usual suspects FBI/SDNY has the actual #EpsteinClientList and are refusing to turn it over. THIS IS AN INTERNAL CIVIL WAR if true.” Beck is correct when he says what was released today is a joke, but a joke on who exactly?  If you really wanted to release the Epstein Files, you would have put it on a web site and let the entire country view it at the same time. The actual Epstein Files may indeed come out, but this is not it, this is theater, and the joke’s on…you.

Epstein files released to conservative influencers

FROM NEWS NATION: The Department of Justice released files regarding Jeffrey Epstein to a small group of conservative influencers Thursday. It’s not clear if the files will be released to the press more broadly or if they will be available for the public to access.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order early in his second term ordering the release of the files along with classified documents related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.

The group of influencers was seen leaving the White House with binders labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi teased the release of the files earlier in the day, saying there were things included in them that would make people sick. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., who is heading a task force on government transparency, said her group was not given the documents and criticized the administration for the limited release.

 “A NY Post story just revealed that the documents will simply be Epstein’s phonebook. THIS IS NOT WHAT WE OR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ASKED FOR. GET US THE INFORMATION WE ASKED FOR instead of leaking old info to press,” she said on X.

Epstein was charged with sex trafficking but died by suicide while in prison. His girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, is serving a 20-year prison sentence for helping Epstein traffic minors.

The new files are said to contain names of Epstein’s associates and flight logs for his private plane. It’s important to note that someone’s name appearing in Epstein’s files is not an indicator that they participated in sex trafficking, and the files included people who only had brief contact with the high-profile financier.

Previously released files included the names of many political and Hollywood figures, including Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Stephen Hawking, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael Jackson, Cate Blanchett, David Copperfield and George Lucas. READ MORE

President Trump has shared an AI-generated video depicting his resort-like vision for the future of Gaza — featuring a gigantic golden statue of the president as well as images of him lounging topless poolside with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In our Wednesday night Bible Study at Bethany Baptist, and on many episodes of our ‘Rightly Dividing’ radio program, we have studied the book of Daniel paying close attention to the connection between the golden statue in chapter 3 and the ‘Image of the Beast’ in Revelation 13. You know what we learned? We learned that anytime someone wants a statue of themselves, in gold no less, it is always a bad thing. Always. Are there no Bible believing Christians anywhere in Trump’s world to tell him the direction he’s being led down now, by Elon Musk, is a bad thing? As it turns out, there are no Bible believers anywhere in Trump’s world, and if there are, they are too afraid to open their mouths. That’s the memo.

“Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.” Daniel 3:1 (KJB)

If Barack Obama or Joe Biden has posted an AI video of themselves doing the exact same thing that Trump is doing in his video, every “prophet” on YouTube would be doing endless hours of podcasting about the Antichrist being revealed. You know that’s a true statement and you’re lying if you say otherwise. I am not saying that Trump is the Antichrist, because I don’t think that, but come on, man, what’s the deal? This is not politics we are watching, this is a highly-funded and elaborate stage play, it’s theater, and Elon Musk is calling the shots. So the real question we need to ask ourselves is why does Elon Musk want to take control of Gaza? An area that “just happens” to be next to Jerusalem. Yep, you should start there and when you can answer that question, you’ll understand the reason for the golden statue. Elon Musk just may be developing the ultimate app of all time.

Trump shares AI video of his vision for Gaza — featuring giant gold statue of himself like Nebuchadnezzar

FROM THE NY POST: The 30-second clip, shared on Truth Social late Tuesday, opens by showing a blighted Gaza following 15 months of Israel’s war against Hamas terrorists — before asking, “What next?” in red, white and blue text. Scenes of destruction morph into a sunny beach resort, as a lively dance track with the lyrics “Donald Trump will set you free, bringing the life for all to see, no more tunnels, no more fear, Trump Gaza is finally here” starts to play.

Is this really what thing everything is coming to, Trump Gaza? Now, you know as well as I do that this is a cover for the real reason why they want to control this area. As a student of end times prophecy, I can think of a couple of reasons why, and none of them good. pic.twitter.com/hvYMDkJJbW

The computer-generated clip then depicts Elon Musk eating bread dipped in hummus on the beach — before quickly cutting to bearded Hamas terrorists bizarrely dancing in bikinis on the sand. Trump’s vision — which he’s said would make Gaza “the Riviera of the Middle East” — also includes giant gold balloons of his face being held by a child, as well as him dancing in a nightclub with a scantily-clad woman, with ally Musk, the world’s richest man, showering people with cash.

The video also depicts a massive golden “Trump Gaza” building, as well as a larger-than-life golden statue of Trump.

The AI-produced song then boasts “a golden future, a brand new light” before the clip shows Trump and Netanyahu lounging shirtless poolside with cocktails in their hands and the words “Trump Gaza” behind them. Since returning to office, Trump has shared his controversial development plan for the war-torn Gaza Strip, which he says he hopes for the US to “take over” and develop into “the Riviera of the Middle East,” pushing out Gaza’s 2 million inhabitants into neighboring nations.

Under the contentious plan, Palestinians would not be allowed to return to the Hamas-run enclave, Trump previously said.

It was the first time a member of the Trump administration publicly said its goal was extending phase one rather than moving on to phase two, which is meant to outline a permanent end of the war and Israel’s full withdrawal from Gaza in exchange for all remaining living hostages. Phase two will also determine who will rule Gaza, though Netanyahu’s government has halted negotiations for phase two following alleged violations by Hamas, including the group’s failure to release the body of slain mother Shiri Bibas last week.

President Donald Trump wants to begin selling gold card visas for $5 million to foreigners and rich immigrants who want to move to America and create jobs.

When I first heard of this yesterday, I was very busy and not really paying attention, and I dismissed the story as satire, parody or as just another attack on Trump by the Left. But to my shock and surprise, it was all too real, Donald Trump really has a plan to sell American citizenship to ‘rich immigrants’. What a sad and tragic idea. Becoming an American citizen used to be worth something, it was something to aspire to, to be worthy of ideals laid out in the ‘great experiment’ of our founding documents. Now it will be sold to the highest bidder like a condo in Trump Tower, those are not the type of Americans I want to see come in. This new ‘golden age’ is rapidly tarnishing in my opinion, and that’s the memo.

“I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.” Revelation 3:18 (KJB)

I see a lot of movement in Washington since Trump and Musk took over, a lot of “sound and fury” but I am really not sure what it all signifies. Musk has a mandate to ‘dismantle the Deep State’ but of you look closely, it looks like he is dismantling the entire state. Gas prices remain what they were under Biden, as do restaurant bills and grocery prices, there has been little to no movement of the economic needle. People have remained wary, unsure of the future holds, and consumer spending is not rising, a classic sign of no confidence of the American people in the new administration. I voted for Trump for the third time, but this Trump is not the Trump of 2016 who did so much good, stabilized the economy, made the US the world’s largest exporter of oil, and declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel. Gold card visas for rich immigrants, is that the plan? The ‘golden age’ of America is barely a month old, and it’s already tarnished and cankered.

Donald Trump reveals VIP visa plan and says he wants to sell GOLD CARD VISAS for $5million to get mega rich foreigners into US

FROM THE SUN US: The US president on Tuesday said the immigration programme, which he said was legal, could start in as little as two weeks. Donald Trump wants to begin selling gold card visas for $5million to foreigners who want to move to America and create jobs. The US president on Tuesday said the immigration programme, which he said was legal, could start in as little as two weeks.

“And we think it’s going to be extremely successful and never been done before.”

Howard Lutnick, Secretary of Commerce, explained that the Trump administration intends to end the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program and “replace it with the Trump gold card.”

The EB-5 program grants investors the opportunity to apply for permanent U.S. residence if they “make the necessary investment in a commercial enterprise in the United States” and intend to generate or sustain 10 permanent full-time jobs. Lutnick described the EB-5 program as “full of nonsense, make-believe and fraud,” adding, “It was a way to get a green card that was low priced.”

Once vetted, gold card holders “can invest in America and we can use that money to reduce our deficit,” he said.

The president projected that the gold card will attract “very high level people” who contribute to job creation. With these cards, “you’re getting big taxpayers, big job producers, and we’ll be able to sell maybe a million of these cards, maybe more than that,” Trump said.

The US currently offers a range of visas for foreigners who want to live and work in the country, each with its own set of requirements and limitations. For those seeking long-term residency, the Green Card application process can be rigorous and time-consuming, often taking years. It’s unclear, however, how long a ‘Gold Card’ would take to obtain and what additional measures – other than financial – would be needed to qualify. It comes after Trump sacked a whopping 2,000 workers and put thousands more on leave in the latest USAID chaos.

Just a day earlier, Tesla tycoon and DOGE leader Elon Musk sent a stern warning to all federal employees saying they must reveal exactly what they “got done last week” or resign. Trump has long vowed to gut what he calls a bloated federal workforce hampering America’s economy.

He set up a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — led by Musk — and tasked him with slashing regulations, cutting spending, and reducing government jobs. Now Trump’s administration said it was placing all but a mere handful of USAID workers worldwide on paid administrative leave and eliminating around 2,000 of those positions in the US. READ MORE

Trump debuts $5 million dollar ‘Gold Card Visa’ program

President Donald Trump said that he wants the United States to sell “gold cards” to wealthy foreigners for $5 million. He made the comments during another executive order signing in the Oval Office. Trump says the cards would grant the purchaser permanent U.S. residency and would replace the EB5 visa program.
