Not that it was any surprise but he definitely called it. I read elsewhere that the warrant was for classified docs which would be impressive since he's been out of the game for many years.

(Some folks are joking that the FBI have finally found the Epstein files.)

Trump today: "We’re going to find out. I know nothing about it. I just saw it this morning, they did a raid."

Also today (on Fox News): "I tell Pam [Bondi] and I tell the group, I don't wanna know, but you have to do what you have to do."

Kind of reminds me of the Mitchell & Webb comedy skit about "Needlessly ambiguous terms":
Is anyone else surprised that, Trump being Trump, anything and everything related to Epstein hasn't already been burned in a big dumpster and deleted from all of the databases?
Like, unless these files are specifically crafted around a narrative to indict Trump's enemies and exonerate him, I would have expected some kind of Stalin-esque historywashing to have taken place by now, beyond Trump just awkwardly insisting they don't exist and Epstein doesn't matter.
