Former President Donald Trump reignited controversy over the weekend by sharing a viral video on Truth Social that highlights what many have long called the “Clinton body count”—a theory alleging a suspicious pattern of deaths among those connected to Bill and Hillary Clinton. The video, which quickly made waves online, suggests that the deaths of figures like John F. Kennedy Jr., Vince Foster, and DNC staffer Seth Rich were more than just tragic coincidences. Predictably, the mainstream media, including the Washington Post, rushed to dismiss the claims as baseless conspiracy theories, but the American public remains unconvinced by these knee-jerk denials.
The media’s reflexive defense of the Clintons and their eagerness to label any questions as “conspiracy” is nothing new. For decades, any attempt to scrutinize the long list of mysterious suicides and untimely deaths among Clinton associates has been met with ridicule and stonewalling. Take the case of Mark Middleton, a former Clinton White House aide whose bizarre death—reportedly involving both a shotgun wound to the chest and hanging from a tree—was quickly ruled a suicide, despite the implausibility. These are not the kinds of details the media likes to linger on, and they certainly don’t encourage Americans to “trust the experts.”
The most infamous case, of course, is Jeffrey Epstein. Despite the official ruling of suicide, the circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death in a high-security federal jail remain deeply suspicious. According to the Department of Justice’s inspector general, the facility was plagued by “negligence, misconduct, and outright job performance failures,” but somehow, no one has been held accountable. Even more troubling is the ongoing lack of transparency regarding Epstein’s files, which reportedly contain evidence of a vast blackmail operation involving powerful figures from politics, business, and entertainment. The Trump administration has repeatedly called for the full release of these files, yet the FBI and DOJ continue to drag their feet, fueling suspicions of a cover-up.
It’s no wonder that Americans are skeptical. Every time new documents are released, they contain little more than what’s already public, while the truly damning evidence—such as names of high-profile associates and details of Epstein’s alleged intelligence connections—remains hidden. Congressional Republicans have demanded answers, but the bureaucratic stonewalling persists. The question on everyone’s mind is: Who benefits from keeping these secrets buried, and why is there such a coordinated effort to suppress any meaningful investigation?
As the media continues its campaign to discredit anyone who dares question the official narrative, the American people are left to wonder if we’ll ever get the truth. The pattern of unexplained deaths, the lack of accountability, and the relentless efforts to silence dissent all point to a deeper problem within our institutions. Until we see real transparency and justice, skepticism will only grow—and rightfully so. Americans deserve answers, not more dismissals from those who claim to protect democracy.
