Representative Becca Balint (D-VT) has reignited calls for the full release of Jeffrey Epstein’s long-speculated “client list” and related files, pointing to President Donald Trump’s past associations with the disgraced financier.
In a post on X late Thursday, Rep. Balint accused the Trump administration of attempting to bury the issue, sharing vintage photos of Trump alongside Epstein and others, including Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s former associate now serving a prison sentence.
“All the MAGA infighting over the Epstein files comes down to this: Trump knew this was a popular issue with his base, so he ran on it,” wrote Balint. “ Loudly and daily. Now he wants to bury it because he and his friends and his donors are probably implicated. Release the files,” she continued.
The post sparked heated debate online and comes after the Justice Department memo released earlier this week. The report, confirming Epstein’s 2019 death as a suicide with no evidence of a compromising “client list,” has failed to quell public and political pressure.
The photos shared by Balint, sourced from Getty Images and dated to the 1990s, show Trump in casual and formal settings with Epstein, including one image with Maxwell and a woman identified as a model.
While no evidence suggests illegal activity, the images have fueled speculation. As the debate intensifies, the White House has maintained that all relevant documents have been disclosed, with Trump dismissing billionaire Elon Musk’s claim that he is named in the files.
In 2019, following Epstein’s arrest on new federal sex trafficking charges and his subsequent death in a Manhattan jail, Trump commented on the case. During a press conference, he stated that he was “not a fan” of Epstein and had not spoken to him in about 15 years.
When asked about cooperation with authorities, Trump did not explicitly claim to have assisted the FBI but said, “I knew him like everybody in Palm Beach knew him,” suggesting a casual acquaintance rather than a deep involvement.
President Trump allegedly banned Jeffrey Epstein from his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida, according to a book titled The Grifter’s Club (2020) . The decision to ban Epstein stemmed from Epstein allegedly making unwanted advances toward a member’s teenage daughter, an action Trump took to protect his brand’s reputation, likely in the mid-2000s before Epstein’s 2008 guilty plea, though no official records confirm the exact date.

Oh yes Becca, keep pushing this…..expose the entire thing. Please, please, please…
If there was ANY chance Trump was involved in this the main stream media would be all over it, they fostered a hoax (russia, russia, russia) so the truth would be easy.
Because they are not going after Trump, we all know who is going to take the fall. Please keep pushing for this.
If Balint wants real exposure for herself, go after Bubba Clinton, Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, and others there are pics showing this. in the same fashion. But beware, Hildabeast has a mean streak and will do anything to keep Bubba out of the limelight. Many people around the Clinton’s have committed “suicide” (140 last count). High profilers don’t want to be seen near Epstein.
Saw a pic on Patriot Post of Epstein’s grave stone saying “If I didn’t have a client list, why am I here?” Did he get on Clinton’s suicide list? Glad that people who want to know are pursuing. The corrupted octopus arms are far reaching.
Anyone that thinks Trump is covering for himself is delusional, which is pretty much a definition of Vermont Democrats. If AG Garland and the Biden Administration’s FBI had anything against him in the Epstein case, it would have been front page headlines, Congressional hearings and Court filings BEFORE and during the 2024 election. Anyone really think Soros and Democrats would have let this opportunity slip? Also remember Trump thru Epstein out of MaraLago and voided his membership when Jeffery attempted to recruit or ‘pickup’ a young member of the clubs staff.
While she does all the naughty things and evryone looks the other way like its normal
Be careful Becca that you don’t get what you wish for. Maybe they are just waiting for election time to release the list. You are not alone. The truth is out there.
“The very word “secrecy” is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and to secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it. Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society by imitating its arbitrary restrictions. Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment. That I do not intend to permit to the extent that it is in my control. And no official of my Administration, whether his rank is high or low, civilian or military, should interpret my words here tonight as an excuse to censor the news, to stifle dissent, to cover up our mistakes or to withhold from the press and the public the facts they deserve to know.” John F. Kennedy April 27, 1961
The last real American President. He attempted to wrestle control away from the Master of Puppets and paid with his life, as did his brother and his son. Ever since, performance artists and endless psyops.
“We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn – Live Not By Lies 1974
The irony Alek wrote that about the Soviet Union and lived in Vermont. All he warned and wrote about is what Vermont, and most of the USA, has embraced and is morphing into. Sad, but true enough.
My question is, does Balint ever have a thought of her own (aside from immigrants wiping her ass) or is she simply an echo chamber for the radical left?
BTW- that was a rhetorical question . . .
More time wasting flack from the left…they be grasping at straws, while losing power and funding quicker than a NY minute.
All their crooked judges are being silenced, as what they rule is unconstitutional, so they lose the false cloak of truthfulness, and all their lies and hogwash are exposed!
Watch how they frail and wave their arms, and hands around, when they talk, trying to distract the minions, from their BS lies.
When there is nothing of substance, they can run on… up goes the chaff/BS and the hand and arm waving begins.
What you are witnessing is the beginning of the end of the lying left, and not a moment too soon.
Vote each and every last one out, and they that break the laws of the land, send to Alcatraz, and away from the levers of power… forever!
William, I think you and others will find this of interest from Victor Davis Hanson, July 9th.

Becca, most are with you on transparency. This is not high up on the national security list but mostly on the Garbage Amongst Us list
While we are at the transparency thing how about a quick look at your most recent campaign finance money . This too would lengthen the Garbage Amongst Us list. Different list but similar bad players.
We are really fortunate to have an endless source of entertainment coming at us from all avenues. More to come I am sure.
She needs to be voted out of office, what an embarrassment for Vermont!
HintBaoint isn’t on it (as a supplier or a customer)
One might ask where was her voice on this issue for the past 2 years? A cynical person my think she is a political opportunist, bordering on being a hypocrite.
Becca Balint is useless! I wrote to her about the thieving tow companies and never received so much as an acknowledgement of my email. All she cares about is garbage!
BLACKMAIL, MONEY LAUNDERING MOSSAD, EXTORTION, BRIBERY have one thing in common. EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN. Now, are there any questions?????? Comments from Richard Day having produced many shows on the SHOTGUN EXPRESS a few years previous and would still question as to the location of Epstein?????????
Despite the fact that Balint is just being her usual opportunistic self and “look over there, a squirrel!” kinda person. The fact does still remain that we have been lied to AGAIN! I do wonder why many or any of Trump’s supporters aren’t shouting about this. Obviously someone/many are being protected by the sudden “non existence” of the client list…the one that was “sitting on Bondi’s desk”. Left/right…I don’t give a damn, I want every dirtbag abuser taken down for their participation in Epstein Island, and NO I don’t believe he committed suicide…if he is even dead at all! And for the record I didn’t vote DJT or KH!
Many Trump supporters are in fact outraged and are expressing it.
Why didn’t Biden release them, nimrod?
I’m out. VT needs a serious exorcism.
Its extremely sad that there very well could be videotape of our president sexually assaulting a minor, and it wouldn’t change anybody’s opinion of him, on either side.
Actually, Alan, there IS video of the President’s son engaged in illegal acts with sex workers trafficked across state lines…. oh, sorry, that’s not in your or legacy media’s purview, since it’s the 46h president. “Russian disinformation!”
Could it be that the left has had enough time to doctor the files so they look clean and only right looks bad? uhmmm.
Ballint and the Rest of her Cronies are wasted piece of skin period!!
