FBI 302: The woman said Epstein introduced her to Trump when she was 13–15: “It was Donald Trump.” She said Trump told her “Let me teach you how little girls are supposed to be,” then raped her. She said she fought back, Trump “pulled her hair and punched her on the side of her head.” #OpDeathEaters

Epstein took her off the island when she was between 13 and 15, she told agents on 7 August 2019, and drove or flew her to New York or New Jersey. She was "introduced to someone with money, money... It was Donald Trump." Others were with them, in a very tall building with huge rooms. Eighteen pages of handwritten notes cover that interview. Its typed summary, filed under case number 31E-NY-3027571 and marked PROTECT SOURCE, went online in March 2026.

Trump did not like her, "from the get-go, he didn't like that I was a boy-girl", the 302 records her saying, a reference to her being a tomboy. She could not identify the others present. They all left when Trump asked everyone to leave the room.

He said something to the effect of "Let me teach you how little girls are supposed to be." He unzipped his trousers and put her head, in the 302's phrasing, "down to his penis". She "bit the shit out of it". He struck her and said words to the effect of "get this little bitch the hell out of here." Agents returning to the incident in a later interview recorded her clarifying what the blow had been: he "pulled her hair and punched her on the side of her head".

She bit him because he disgusted her, she told agents. "He had money, it reeked off of him."

and there it is -- Trump says that if the Supreme Court doesn't allow him to put his name on the Kennedy Center then it will close down for good

The Board of The Kennedy Center today agreed, almost unanimously, to close the Building for Safety reasons, and so that it can begin the process of Reconstruction. The closing will take place immediately, however, the Renovation and Reconstruction, which is a very large and complex job, cannot begin until such time as the D.C. Circuit rules on the Board’s approved name. If the ruling is a negative one, which it should not be, and is not overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, the Reconstruction and the Renovation of The Kennedy Center will not take place. The attorneys from the DOJ will ask for an expedited appeal. In the meantime, 17 Million Dollars, raised by President Trump, has been put into The Kennedy Center account to keep it afloat. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
