Rep. Paul Gosar sends cryptic tweets that read ‘Epstein didn’t kill himself’ during impeachment hearing

A Republican congressman has tweeted a hidden message about Jeffrey Epstein during impeachment hearings.

A Republican congressman drew some attention to his Twitter account after observers noticed that a series of tweets spelled out, “Epstein didn’t kill himself.”

Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., was quite active on social media reacting to the ongoing testimony of US diplomat Bill Taylor and State Department official George Kent as the first witnesses in a public impeachment hearing of President Donald Trump, sharing videos and articles that memorialised the event.

“Evidence of a link between foreign aid and political investigations simply does not exist. The longer this circus continues the clearer it becomes that @realDonaldTrump has done absolutely nothing wrong,” Mr Gosar wrote on his official Twitter account.

Before that, “President @realDonaldTrump voluntarily chose to release the transcript of his phone call which clearly shows he did nothing wrong. This impeachment circus is a total sham, and Adam Schiff is the clown at the centre of it all.”

And, before that, “Schiff’s star witness is crumbling under pressure. He wasn’t listening to the phone call and he has never even met President Trump.”

However, the Daily Wire and others took notice that as readers scrolled down Gosar’s profile, the first letters of each tweet spelled, “Epstein didn’t kill himself.”

My worry is that like the Kennedy assassination or 9/11 trutherism, the Epstein thing will be a rabbithole that will lure many away from real politics.

The “Epstein didn’t kill himself” meme has spread like wildfire after the death of convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The New York City medical examiner determined he had taken his own life, but vocal sceptics have suggested otherwise during random blurt-outs on television and other signs.

In a statement to Fox News, Mr Gosar stressed that his tweets were all “substantive” but appeared to have some more fun in the process.

𝐀ll of the tweets pertained to today’s hearing.
𝐑est assured, they are substantive.
𝐄very one of them.
𝐀ll of them.

𝟓 were brilliant.
𝟏 was okay.

“All of the tweets pertained to testimony from today’s hearing,” he said.

“Rest assured, they are substantive.

“Every one of them.

“All of them.

“5 were brilliant.

“1 was OK.”

In other words, “Area 51.”
