Susie Wiles said Trump appears in the Epstein records, including flight manifests, but said his presence is not incriminating.

She described Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein as social, saying the two moved in the same circles as “young, single playboys,” and insisted there is nothing in the files indicating Trump engaged in illegal or abusive conduct.

Susie Wiles said Attorney General Pam Bondi “completely whiffed” the handling of the Epstein files.

She said Bondi gave conservative influencers binders containing no new information and then compounded the mistake by publicly suggesting that a “client list” existed, which Wiles said was not the case.

Susie Wiles sharply criticized Trump and several senior figures in his orbit.

Wiles said Trump “has an alcoholic’s personality,” accused him of being driven at times by revenge, and said he ignored her advice on issues including deportations, pardons, and tariffs.

She also said he was wrong to claim Bill Clinton visited Jeffrey Epstein’s island, noting there was no evidence.

Beyond Trump, Wiles described JD Vance as a longtime conspiracy theorist whose loyalty to Trump was politically motivated.

She called Elon Musk an “odd, odd duck” and said his actions at USAID left her “aghast.”

Wiles wrote on X that the story was a “disingenuously framed hit piece,” saying her remarks were stripped of context to portray Trump and his team negatively.

The Telegraph:

The Al Nahyan brothers, rulers of Abu Dhabi and among the world’s richest siblings, have spent decades positioning the UAE as a modern, stable Western ally and a magnet for US technology and investment.

But allegations that the UAE is backing Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia — accused of mass atrocities — are straining those ties.

Western intelligence sources say the UAE has supplied weapons to the RSF during Sudan’s Civil War, now the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.

Abu Dhabi denies the claims, but diplomats warn the controversy threatens relations with the US and UK just as the Emirati leadership expands its economic and political reach across Africa.

The brothers — President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, security chief Sheikh Tahnoon, and billionaire investor Sheikh Mansour — combine vast state power with a global business empire spanning ports, farmland, mines and technology.

Critics say Emirati firms blur the line between state policy and corporate expansion, fuelling accusations of neo-colonialism, particularly in Sudan.

Despite mounting evidence and rare public warnings from Washington, Western governments have been reluctant to confront the UAE openly.

For now, the UAE remains indispensable — but Sudan risks becoming a test of how far its Western partners are willing to look away.

Netanyahu:

The barbarians are out there. They did a horrible thing to us on October 7th. They’ll never do it again.

But they’re doing it against Jews in Sydney and Jews elsewhere in America and elsewhere.

This is our common battle against the barbarians.

Netanyahu:

I demand that Western governments do what is necessary to fight antisemitism and provide the required safety and security for Jewish communities worldwide.

They would be well-advised to heed our warnings. I demand action from them – now.
