Police RAID DONALD TRUMPS PROPERTY IN TEXAS and Find HIDDEN EPSTEIN FILES ! | Jimmy Kimmel

Hello, everyone. This is Jimmy Kimmel. I need you to sit down for this one. What I'm about to tell you is going to shake everything you thought you knew about what's really happening behind closed doors in this country. Before we get into the most shocking development I've seen,

I need you to do something, just you. Hit that subscribe button for Kimmel In Focus right now. One click. When you subscribe, you're telling me you care about the truth, so please do it right now. Let me tell you what happened in Texas that the mainstream media is too scared to report honestly. Federal agents raided a property connected to Donald Trump in Texas,

and what they found, according to sources close to the investigation, are documents that allegedly link Trump to Jeffrey Epstein's network, documents that were supposedly destroyed years ago, documents that could change everything. This story is still developing. The authorities haven't made an official statement yet,

but multiple sources are reporting that this raid happened and files were seized. Now, you might be asking yourself, why haven't we heard about this on CNN or Fox News? Why isn't this the top story everywhere? Because when something this explosive happens

and the media goes quiet, that tells you everything about how powerful the people involved really are. The property is a ranch-style estate in West Texas, not Mar-a-Lago or Trump Tower, something more private, more hidden, the kind of place that doesn't show up on official lists.

If you're trying to hide something, you don't put it in your most famous building where everyone's watching. You put it somewhere remote, somewhere off the radar. The raid was conducted by a joint task force, FBI agents working with federal investigators. This wasn't local police. This was federal.

This was serious. The fact they executed a warrant on a property connected to a former president tells you they had significant evidence. Federal judges don't issue warrants for raids on presidential properties based on nothing. Here's where it gets really interesting. The documents allegedly found aren't just random papers. According to sources, these files contain names, dates,

locations, and financial records connecting Trump to Epstein's operation. Flight logs showing trips never publicly disclosed. Financial transactions revealing payments or business deals, communications proving Trump knew more about Epstein's activities than he's ever admitted.

Trump and Epstein were friends. That's documented fact. Photos of them together at parties exist. Trump praised Epstein years ago, calling him a terrific guy. The question is how deep that relationship went and what Trump knew. What bothers me is the silence from Trump's team.

Usually his lawyers are all over the media denying everything, calling it a witch hunt, but this time, silence. That's the kind of silence suggesting lawyers are scrambling. The raid reportedly happened on a Friday evening. That's significant because Friday evening is when government agencies do things they don't want immediate attention for.

It's the news cycle dead zone. People are checking out for the weekend, the perfect time to execute a warrant if you want to minimize public reaction. The agents were on site for several hours, not a quick in and out search. They were there long, methodically going through the property, documenting everything, seizing materials. That thoroughness suggests they knew exactly what they were looking for.

This wasn't a fishing expedition. This was targeted. Now, let me talk about what these alleged Epstein files could contain. Jeffrey Epstein ran a network that involved trafficking and abuse of underage girls. He had connections to powerful people worldwide. Politicians, businessmen, celebrities, royalty. The prevailing theory has always been that Epstein collected compromising information

on these people, the kind used for blackmail or leverage. If the files seized contain that information, and if Trump's name is in those files significantly, we're talking about a potential scandal that would dwarf anything we've seen. Evidence suggesting Trump was more involved in Epstein's world than he's admitted. The legal and political implications are enormous, but here's what's really getting under my skin.

The American people deserve to know the truth. They deserve to know what was in those files, but there's a very real possibility we'll never get the full truth. When you're dealing with people this powerful, with secrets this explosive,

there are forces that will work very hard to keep that information buried. Think about what happened to Epstein himself. He died in federal custody under circumstances many find extremely suspicious. The official story is suicide. But there are serious questions about how that happened given the security protocols

that should have been in place. Regardless of what you believe, Epstein's death meant he could never testify about who was involved in his network. Now we've got files showing up in a raid on a Trump property. Files supposedly destroyed or lost years ago. How did they end up there?

Who had access to them? Why were they being kept? These questions need answers. Let me talk about legal implications. If the files contain evidence of criminal activity and if Trump is implicated, he could face serious legal consequences.

Not just civil lawsuits or political embarrassment, criminal charges, obstruction of justice if he tried to hide evidence, conspiracy if he was involved in covering up crimes. Being a former president doesn't protect you from prosecution. The law is clear. Former presidents can be investigated and charged with crimes. The only question is whether prosecutors have the evidence and political will to move forward.

Trump supporters will say this is all a setup. They'll say the files are fake, planted by political enemies. They'll say the raid was illegal. But let's be clear, federal raids don't happen based on nothing. A federal magistrate signed off on this warrant, which means they reviewed evidence and determined sufficient justification.

What concerns me is what this says about our democracy when someone this powerful might have been involved in something this awful and we're only finding out now, years later, how many other secrets are being kept, how many other powerful individuals are involved in things that would horrify us. I want to talk about the media's role because it's infuriating. If this story is real, why isn't this the biggest story in the country? Where are the investigative journalists?

Where are the major networks demanding answers? The silence is deafening. Before anyone accuses me of being partisan, let me say clearly, if this were about any other politician, Democrat or Republican, I'd be just as vocal about demanding transparency. This isn't about politics. This is about someone who held the highest office possibly being involved with a convicted sex trafficker. Let me tell you what should happen next. First, authorities need to be transparent about what they found.

Second, if evidence implicates Trump or anyone else, charges should be filed. No one should be above the law. Third, there should be a full accounting of how these files ended up at this property. But here's what will actually happen. We'll get carefully worded statements that don't tell us anything. Leaks and counter leaks as factions spin the story.

Powerful people will use every tool to keep damaging information from becoming public. That's how it always works when powerful people's secrets are threatened. The system protects its own. The truth gets buried. And the average American is left wondering what really happened and whether anyone will be held accountable.

Now let's talk about Trump's relationship with Epstein from the public record. Trump and Epstein moved in the same social circles in New York and Palm Beach for years. There are multiple photos of them together at events in the 1990s and early 2000s. Trump has acknowledged knowing Epstein but tried to downplay it recently. After Epstein's 2019 arrest, Trump said he hadn't spoken to him in 15 years. But there's that famous 2002 quote where Trump told New York Magazine that Epstein was a

terrific guy and that he'd known him for 15 years. The flight logs from Epstein's private jets show Trump flew on Epstein's plane at least once. Trump claims it was just one time and he didn't know it was Epstein's plane. But given their relationship it's hard to believe Trump was completely unaware of Epstein's behavior. This is why the alleged

discovery is so significant. If those files contain evidence that Trump's involvement was deeper than he's claimed, that's huge. If they show Trump was aware of illegal activities and did nothing, that's huge. Epstein was first charged in 2008. He got a sweetheart plea deal many found inadequate, then arrested again in 2019 on federal charges,

then he died in custody before trial. Throughout all that, powerful people connected to Epstein were never charged, never seriously investigated. There's been this persistent sense that the full truth about Epstein's network was never revealed, that powerful people were protected, that evidence was suppressed or destroyed, and now if these reports are accurate, we have files

showing up that could shed light on exactly what was hidden. I want to be careful because we're dealing with serious allegations and the investigation is ongoing. But the American people deserve to ask these questions. They deserve answers. This isn't about partisan politics. This is about getting to the truth about a network of abuse that allegedly involved

some of the most powerful people in the world. The integrity of our democracy depends on the principle that no one is above the law. Not presidents, not former presidents, not billionaires. If you commit crimes, you should be held accountable regardless of your wealth or power.

That's what the rule of law means. With this alleged raid and these alleged files, we're at a moment where that principle is being tested. Will authorities follow the evidence? Will they have courage to bring charges if warranted? Will the media demand transparency?

Will the American people insist on truth? Or will this story get buried? Will powerful interests suppress damaging information? Will we get vague assurances that nothing actionable was found? Will this become another conspiracy people argue about online? That's what keeps me up at night. The pattern of powerful people getting away with things that would destroy ordinary citizens. The pattern of investigations that promise transparency,

but deliver obfuscation. A justice system with different standards for the wealthy and connected. So here's what I'm asking you to do. Pay attention to this story, don't let it disappear. Demand answers from your elected representatives.

Demand transparency from authorities, support independent journalism, and don't accept easy answers that let powerful people off the hook. The truth matters, justice matters, accountability matters, and if we stop demanding those things, we've already lost. Thanks for being here with me. This is bigger than politics. This is about

whether we live in a country where powerful people can be held accountable or whether wealth and power put you above the law. Subscribe to Kimmel and Focus if you haven't already. You deserve a place where someone's asking these questions, demanding these answers. It's just you and me having a conversation about things that matter. I'll be back soon with updates.

Keep watching, stay informed, stay engaged, demand better from people in power. Take care of yourself and your family. And remember, the truth is worth fighting for even when it's uncomfortable, even when it's uncomfortable,

even when powerful people don't want you to know it.
