Donald Trump's ‘Never met Epstein' claim gets jazzed up — viral video trolls him with 750K+ views and counting
Among the critics taking aim at Trump is Jeremy Newberger, who's a part of the Ironbound Films production crew and has been posting AI-generated political satire on the YouTube channel Mr. Newberger's AI Funnies.
His 1930's-inspired jazz music video 'Releasing the Files' has garnered over 750,000 views on YouTube and it tears into Donald Trump's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, the administration's constant moving of the goalposts on the investigation, and Trump's recent attempts to bury all discussion on the matter.
All the while, the song mocks Trump's attempts to distance himself from the infamous sex trafficker with the refrain that he 'never met Epstein or touched any teens'.
Newberger's other viral hits, all of them also trolling Trump, include 'Taco Taco Taco', 'When the Tariff Comes' and 'No Kings'.
Jeremy Newberger's 'Releasing the Files' tears into Trump
Newberger's AI-generated jazz music video openly mocks the talking points trotted out by Donald Trump and his supporters throughout his second term. Early into his second presidency, Trump and his administration had hyped up the release of the Epstein files, only to move the goalposts and disappoint the supporters who expected them to release anything substantial.
As the music video nears its end, its lyrics mirror Trump's own attempts to get everyone to stop talking about the case, with the song eventually warning that Trump will send the military and Feds after anyone who manages to actually get the files released because his name is probably in them.
When discussing the Jeffrey Epstein case on X, Newberger has made no secret of his belief that Donald Trump really is a pedophile and sexual predator who's trying to cover his tracks, with one tweet explicitly calling Trump a 'kid toucher'.
FWIW, you can still wear MAGA hats, believe in stronger borders, hate on abortions, preach lower taxes, all while prosecuting Trump for crimes. Your party can survive with leadership from folks other than just the guy who got you enthusiastic. Especially if he was a kid toucher.
Newberger has also discussed Epstein on the Generation Exile podcast
While Newberger's AI music video has been a runaway success, it isn't the only time he's publicly discussed the Jeffrey Epstein case.
On July 17, Newberger, along with his high school friends Dave Eagle and Michael Romanelli, discussed the Jeffrey Epstein case on the Generation Exile podcast.
There, Newberger and the others talked about the uncomfortable position many of Donald Trump's backers such as Marjorie Taylor-Greene were in, given that they'd hailed him as an anti-Epstein crusader only for his administration to claim that there was no client list to be found. Despite all this, they believed that most of Trump's supporters would stick by him, because they likened his base to a "cult".

Trump announces Armenia, Azerbaijan to sign peace deal at White House
President Donald Trump said he would host the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan for a peace summit with expectation that the pair will sign an agreement seeking to end decades of conflict between the South Caucasus nations. Trump, who has long desired a Nobel Peace Prize, has sought to be recognized as a peacemaker in his second term, including by using trade and the threat of tariffs as a tool for resolving geopolitical disputes. (REUTERS) Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturyan and both Azerbaijani Prime Minister Ali Asadov and President Ilham Aliyev are scheduled to meet with Trump at the White House on Friday. 'The United States will also sign Bilateral Agreements with both Countries to pursue Economic opportunities together, so we can fully unlock the potential of the South Caucasus Region,' Trump said in a social media post. 'I am very proud of these courageous Leaders for doing the right thing for the Great People of Armenia and Azerbaijan.' The US, Russia and France have long sought to negotiate a settlement between Armenia and Azerbaijan to end the fight over the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. The countries have clashed repeatedly. More than 30,000 people were killed in a war in the early 1990s after the collapse of the Soviet Union, while roughly 6,000 were killed in a 44-day war in 2020 and dozens died in border clashes in September 2022. The territory is populated by Armenians but internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan. Russian President Vladimir Putin brokered a truce to halt the 2020 war, but the sides did not reach a final peace agreement. The State Department under former President Joe Biden mediated peace talks but those stumbled over Azerbaijani demands that the Armenian constitution be changed to exclude claims on Nagorno-Karabakh. Trump, who has long desired a Nobel Peace Prize, has sought to be recognized as a peacemaker in his second term, including by using trade and the threat of tariffs as a tool for resolving geopolitical disputes. Trump has touted his role in helping broker a peace treaty between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, a ceasefire between Iran and Israel as well as one between India and Pakistan. India, though, has bristled at Trump's claims that his threat to cut off access to US markets brought an end to the clash with fellow nuclear power Pakistan earlier this year. 'Many Leaders have tried to end the War, with no success, until now, thanks to ''TRUMP,'' the US president wrote in his announcement of the Friday event. Azerbaijan is also an energy-rich nation, and the region is critical to oil and gas supplies. Azerbaijan exports oil through a pipeline connecting its Caspian Sea output with Turkey's Mediterranean port of Ceyhan. It also supplies natural gas to several European countries, including Greece and Italy, via the US-backed Southern Gas Corridor. In 2022, it signed a deal with the European Union to double gas exports to the bloc by 2027. Armenia hosts Russia's sole military base in the southern Caucasus region. Relations between Armenia and Moscow, however, have deteriorated since 2022 when Armenians accused Russia of failing to provide military support under a mutual-defense pact during border clashes with Azerbaijan. Russia sent 2,000 troops as peacekeepers to Nagorno-Karabakh as part of the 2020 truce, but the troops didn't intervene when Azerbaijan took full control of the territory in 2022 and were withdrawn last year after the Armenian population had fled. --With assistance from Meghashyam Mali.

Remove Ads Tired of too many ads?

'War ended, thanks to TRUMP': Armenia, Azerbaijan to sign peace pact at White House; US president takes credit
US President Donald Trump (Image Credit: AP) US President Donald Trump has added two more names to the list of nations where he claims to have brokered peace — Armenia and Azerbaijan. On Thursday, US President announced that the long-feuding neighbours are expected to sign a historic peace agreement at the White House on Friday, potentially bringing an end to decades of hostility, and this is all because of "TRUMP". Trump indicated that Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and President Ilham Aliyev would sign agreements with the United States to explore joint economic ventures, aiming to maximise the South Caucasus Region's potential. "I look forward to hosting the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, and the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, at the White House tomorrow for a Historic Peace Summit. These two Nations have been at War for many years, resulting in the deaths of thousands of people. Many Leaders have tried to end the War, with no success, until now, thanks to 'TRUMP.' My Administration has been engaged with both sides for quite some time. Tomorrow, President Aliyev AND Prime Minister Pashinyan will join me at the White House for an official Peace Signing Ceremony," Trump said. "The United States will also sign Bilateral Agreements with both Countries to pursue Economic opportunities together, so we can fully unlock the potential of the South Caucasus Region. I am very proud of these courageous Leaders for doing the right thing for the Great People of Armenia and Azerbaijan. It will be a Historic Day for Armenia, Azerbaijan, the United States, and, THE WORLD. See you then! DJT," he added. This agreement could resolve long-standing conflicts and enable the reopening of vital transport routes across the South Caucasus, which have remained closed since the early 1990s. Three anonymous US officials revealed to AP that the agreements include establishing a significant transit corridor across the region, which had previously hindered peace negotiations. According to these officials, the US would receive leasing rights to develop this corridor, designated as the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity. The corridor would connect Azerbaijan to its Nakhchivan region, currently separated by 32 kilometres of Armenian territory. The planned transit corridor would incorporate railway lines, oil and gas pipelines, and fibre optic cables, facilitating goods movement and eventually passenger travel. Private corporations, rather than the US government, would finance the corridor's construction. The agreement resulted from negotiations following Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff's visit to Baku, Azerbaijan's capital, earlier this year. Azerbaijan-Armenia dispute The Karabakh region has been a source of conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan for nearly forty years. During Soviet rule, the predominantly Armenian region maintained autonomy within Azerbaijan. Tensions between Christian Armenians and Muslim Azerbaijanis, influenced by the 1915 Ottoman Turkish massacre of 1.5 million Armenians, intensified as the Soviet Union declined. The region attempted to join Armenia in 1988, sparking clashes. Following Armenia's independence from the dissolving USSR in 1991, the situation escalated into warfare, resulting in approximately 30,000 deaths and one million displaced persons, AP news agency reported. The 1994 ceasefire left Armenian forces, supported by Yerevan, controlling both the region and significant portions of Azerbaijan. International mediation proved unsuccessful. Azerbaijan launched a campaign to reclaim the region in September 2020, supported by NATO-member Turkey, which shares strong ethnic and cultural ties with Azerbaijan. The six-week conflict, involving artillery, rockets and drones, resulted in over 6,700 casualties. Azerbaijani forces regained control of areas outside Karabakh and within it. A Russian-brokered peace agreement led to the deployment of 2,000 peacekeepers. Azerbaijan completely reclaimed Karabakh in September 2023 through rapid military action. Subsequently, nearly all of Nagorno-Karabakh's ethnic Armenian population, over 100,000 people, fled to Armenia within a week.
