00:00Trump lobs threats at Clinton, other prominent Democrats.

00:04President Donald Trump escalated attacks over newly resurfaced Jeffrey Epstein details,

00:09threatening DOJ and FBI probes into Democratic-aligned figures amid the shutdown fight.

00:15Trump wrote that he would ask AG Pam Bondi, the Department of Justice,

00:19and the FBI to investigate Epstein's relationships with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers,

00:25Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, and Chase.

00:27This is another Russia, Russia, Russia scam, with all arrows pointing to the Democrats.

00:33Records show that these men, and many others, spent large portions of their lives with Epstein,

00:38and on his island. Stay tuned, he added.

00:41The remarks came after the House Oversight Committee released documents from the Epstein case,

00:46some of which included references to Trump.

00:49The president reacted furiously, insisting,

00:51The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein hoax again,

00:55because they'll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they've done on the shutdown,

00:59and so many other subjects.

01:01He warned Republicans not to be very bad or stupid by engaging with the matter.

01:06Only a very bad or stupid Republican would fall into that trap.

01:10The Democrats cost our country $1.5 trillion,

01:13with their recent antics of viciously closing our country,

01:17while at the same time putting many at risk,

01:19and they should pay a fair price.

01:21There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else,

01:24and any Republicans involved should be focused only on opening up our country

01:28and fixing the massive damage caused by the Democrats,

01:32Trump told his 11.1 million followers on Truth Social.

01:36Trump's intensifying rhetoric came just days after he hosted JPMorgan Chase,

01:41CEO Jamie Dimon, for dinner at the White House.

01:44His threats also carry weight,

01:46given the DOJ's ongoing prosecutions of several Trump critics,

01:50including John Bolton and Letitia James.
