Donald Trump Revisits Epstein Ties After Protester Interrupts Ohio Rally
The protester was removed after Trump repeated his claim that he expelled Jeffrey Epstein from Mar-a-Lago and denied any ongoing ties.
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump held a rally in Chillicothe, Ohio, where hecklers interrupted him shouting about his alleged connections to Jeffrey Epstein, forcing the president to address the accusations mid-speech.
- Trump dismissed the claims, stating, "I threw Epstein out of a club like 20 years ago because I thought he was a wackjob," while insisting the late sex offender "was a Democrat" and he was "totally exonerated."
- Tensions escalated as supporters booed the hecklers, who responded with crude gestures; a second protester held up two middle fingers while being dragged away by security.
- Jimmy Kimmel criticized the president on Wednesday for telling "ridiculous and relentless" lies ahead of next week's midterm elections, specifically targeting Trump's promise of a $5,000 check to every American adult if Republicans retain Congress.
- Kimmel further ridiculed Trump's suggestion that supporters could dine at Mar-a-Lago with the funds, questioning why the president would tell voters they cannot afford his house when $5,000 barely covers a hamburger there.
