‘I’m not a r@pist...’ WH Shooting suspect cites Epstein link in manifesto; Trump grows frustrated

US President Donald Trump on Sunday strongly rejected allegations contained in a manifesto written by the suspect of the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting, labelling the attacker a "sick person" and distancing himself from claims linking his administration to the Jeffrey Epstein files. In a sit-down interview with CBS News, the President grew visibly frustrated when excerpts of the suspect's manifesto were read to him. The document reportedly accused administration officials of being "pedophiles, rapists, and traitors." "I read the manifesto. You know, he's a sick person," Trump told the interviewer. "But you should be ashamed of yourself for reading that because I'm not any of those things." Trump went on to explicitly deny the claims, stating, "I'm not a rapist... I'm not a paedophile." He further alleged that the focus should be on his political opponents, claiming he was "totally exonerated" and that "friends on the other side of the plate" were the ones truly involved with Epstein. According to US Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, preliminary findings suggest the suspect may have been targeting members of the Trump administration, though authorities are still working to determine a clear motive. Blanche said investigators are examining electronic devices, travel history, and personal connections of the accused.
