Here's JD Vance this past Sunday on Fox News:
We know that Jeffrey Epstein had a lot of connections with left-wing politicians and left-wing billionaires. ... Democrat billionaires and Democrat political leaders went to Epstein island all the time. Who knows what they did. I laugh at the Democrats who are now, all of a sudden, so interested in the Epstein files. For four years, Joe Biden and the Democrats did absolutely nothing about this story."

That's right, JD Vance laughs at Democrats who are "so interested in the Epstein files," because he knows that "Democrat billionaires" and "Democrat political leaders" went to Epstein island all the time.
And while he's saying publicly that he doesn't know what they did, he's the Vice President of the United States and he has full and complete access to the contents of the Epstein files, which are currently in the possession of Donald Trump's Department of Justice.
So c'mon JD, you know what's in the files! You're already telling us it involves "Democrat billionaires" and "Democrat political leaders." Why be coy? Let's hear it!
After all, JD, you're the guy who said just last October, "The Epstein client list needs to be released. People have the right to know who was involved in his horrific crimes ... The cover-up has gone on for far too long. Its time to shine a light on who was involved with Epstein and hold them accountable. The American people deserve the truth."
And thanks to your recent interview comments, we know that it's definitely some unnamed "Democrat billionaires" and "Democrat political leaders" who were involved, right?
I gotta say -- if I were MAGA, I'd wonder why you're dangling this information out there only to keep all the juicy details under wraps. Given that the Trump administration now has complete control of the federal government, you could easily give us all the goods on these evil Democrats that you just talked about on Fox News this past Sunday!
I mean, according to you, "For four years, Joe Biden and the Democrats did absolutely nothing about this story." And yet here you are also doing absolutely nothing about this story!
Yes, for some reason, it seems that while you would love to tell everyone exactly who's in the Epstein files and what they were up to -- because the information would surely incriminate all of your political opponents -- you're going to keep it all to yourself for just a little while longer.
What a tease!

Nouns identify.
It was Joseph McCarthy the disgraced alcoholic who popularize "Democrat Party."

President Clinton never flew to that island, he traveled on that plane to do philanthropic things. Whereas
