In a stunning escalation of his ongoing feud with the media, former President Donald Trump has launched a blistering attack against the Wall Street Journal and Rupert Murdoch, claiming they published a fabricated letter linking him to Jeffrey Epstein. Trump asserts that the supposed correspondence, which allegedly contained inappropriate content, is a complete fabrication designed to tarnish his reputation. “If they print it, they will be sued,” Trump warned in a fiery response, vowing to take legal action against the publication for what he describes as a “malicious and defamatory story.”

The controversy erupted after the Wall Street Journal reported on a letter purportedly written by Trump for Epstein’s 50th 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day, which allegedly featured crude drawings and inappropriate language. Trump vehemently denied the authenticity of the letter, stating, “I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t talk like that. I don’t think like that.” He expressed his frustration with the publication, accusing them of peddling “fake news” and manipulating public perception for their own agenda.

In a dramatic turn, Trump has promised to hold Murdoch accountable, suggesting that the media mogul’s influence over the Journal has waned. “It has truly turned out to be a disgusting and filthy rag,” Trump declared, asserting that the article is part of a broader campaign to undermine him.

As the fallout continues, Trump’s allies are rallying behind him, with House Speaker Mike Johnson calling the allegations “patently absurd.” The former president’s approval ratings remain high, even amid the barrage of accusations, indicating a resilient support base. With legal action on the horizon, this explosive chapter in Trump’s ongoing battle with the media is far from over, and the implications could reverberate through the political landscape.
