99% of the Epstein Files Are Still Hidden — And Trump Just Made It Worse w/ Jim Acosta
About this episode
Tara Palmeri and Jim Acosta discuss Trump's controversial statements and the ongoing cover-up of the Epstein files.
Tara Palmeri joins Jim Acosta to unpack Trump's extraordinary 60 Minutes moment — when he volunteered "I am not a rapist, I am not a pedophile" without being asked — and why it echoes Bill Clinton's infamous Monica Lewinsky denial.

They also discuss the Michael Tracy incident at the Virginia Giuffre memorial and the Substack party, where Tracy harassed Julie K. Brown and was removed by security — and why someone would make a hobby out of targeting Epstein survivors and the reporters who broke the story. 1:00 – Playing the clip: Norah O'Donnell reads the WHCD shooter's manifesto to Trump 1:43 – Trump's response: "I'm not a pedophile... you should be ashamed of yourself" 2:37 – Tara: "She didn't ask him that — he volunteered it, like Clinton and Lewinsky" 4:16 – Tara: The Epstein files have raised more questions — 2.5 million still with the FBI 5:57 – We've seen 1% of the…
