(WND News Center)—President Donald Trump erupted against the New York Times on Tuesday, calling the left-leaning publication “a serious threat to the National Security of our Nation.”
His comments come in the wake of a Times article linking Trump to Palm Beach pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, titled: “‘Don’s Best Friend’: How Epstein and Trump Bonded Over the Pursuit of Women.”
The Times reported: “The president has tried to minimize their friendship, but documents and interviews reveal an intense and complicated relationship. Chasing women was a game of ego and dominance. Female bodies were currency.”
Shortly after midnight Tuesday morning, Trump unleashed on Truth Social, saying: “The Failing New York Times, and their lies and purposeful misrepresentations, is a serious threat to the National Security of our Nation.
“Their Radical Left, Unhinged Behavior, writing FAKE Articles and Opinions in a never ending way, must be dealt with and stopped. THEY ARE A TRUE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!”
Investigative journalist Jack Cashill shredded the Times for its deceptive reporting, stating:
You would have to read deep into a lengthy December 18 New York Times article misleadingly titled, ‘Don’s Best Friend’: How Epstein and Trump Bonded Over the Pursuit of Women, before getting to the only finding that mattered: ‘An examination of their history by The New York Times has found no evidence implicating Mr. Trump in Mr. Epstein’s abuse and trafficking of minors.’
“One can only imagine how disappointed the Times editors were to concede that point. The article suggests that a massive amount of manpower went into reviewing files, combing through emails, and tracking down sources, at least 30 of whom were interviewed, most of whom anonymously.”
Also Tuesday, the U.S. Justice Department announced it has “officially released nearly 30,000 more pages of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.”
“Some of these documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims made against President Trump that were submitted to the FBI right before the 2020 election. To be clear: the claims are unfounded and false, and if they had a shred of credibility, they certainly would have been weaponized against President Trump already.
“Nevertheless, out of our commitment to the law and transparency, the DOJ is releasing these documents with the legally required protections for Epstein’s victims.”
On Sunday’s “Meet the Press” broadcast on NBC, U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said regarding Trump: “There is nothing he has to hide in the Epstein Files. There never was, and even though there’s repeated attempts by Democrats to paint him as being part of the Epstein saga, it’s failing over and over again.
“And so you should not be surprised that the material that we released on Friday or the material that we’re gonna release over the next couple of weeks is exactly what the statute requires us to release, which is everything that we have from this case with the exception of redacting personal information from victims and other statutes, privileges and things like that. Otherwise, everything’s getting produced.”
Trump recently launched a media-bias tracker on the official White House website, documenting top deceptions by major news outlets.
