BREAKING: Donald Trump goes scorched earth on The Wall Street Journal after they expose his lewd letter to Jeffrey Epstein by banning their reporters from his upcoming trip to Scotland.

This is not the behavior of an innocent man…

“The Wall Street Journal or any other news outlet are not guaranteed special access to cover President Trump in the Oval Office, aboard Air Force One, and in his private workspaces,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told The Hill.

“Thirteen diverse outlets will participate in the press pool to cover the President’s trip to Scotland. Due to the Wall Street Journal’s fake and defamatory conduct, they will not be one of the thirteen outlets on board,” she added.

This escalating feud between the Journal, which is a right-wing outlet owned by archconservative Rupert Murdoch, and Trump was ignited after they reported on a bawdy letter that Trump sent to Ghislaine Maxwell to be included in a birthday album for Epstein. It contained bizarre typewritten text and a drawing of a naked woman along with Trump’s signature. Trump has denied that he wrote the letter and insists that he has never been one to draw pictures despite an extensive recorded history of him sketching doodles.

Banning the Journal from this trip is a blatant effort to punish them for reporting on the Epstein scandal and fits neatly into Trump’s ongoing war against the free press. Our so-called president has also filed a frivolous lawsuit against the Journal over this letter reporting, alleging defamation.

“Every news organization in the entire world wishes to cover President Trump, and the White House has taken significant steps to include as many voices as possible,” said Leavitt, who will go down in history as a willing enabler of this fascist, sexual predator regime.

If the letter is in fact a fake, Trump could easily allay concerns by releasing the full Epstein files. If he’s innocent, he has nothing to fear.
