Quiet, quiet piggy
In a gaggle with reporters on Air Force One on November 14, 2025, a female journalist attempted to ask US president Donald Trump about the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. She appeared to be attempting to ask him that, if there was nothing incriminating in the files, why doesn’t he order their release himself, rather than have Congress vote on it?
But before she finished, Trump pointed her way and said, “Quiet, quiet piggy.” Trump then turned to answer a question from CBS News reporter Jennifer Jacobs. Jacobs reported on Trump’s outburst on her X account and said that he had said it to a Bloomberg reporter. Colleagues later identified her as Bloomberg News White House correspondent Catherine Lucey.
