• House Democrats obtained private Epstein emails through congressional subpoena of his estate
• Emails claim alleged victim spent hours with Trump at Epstein’s residence
• White House calls release partisan distraction, insists Trump did nothing wrong

WASHINGTON, D.C. (TDR) — House Democrats released private emails Wednesday showing convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein referenced President Donald Trump multiple times in correspondence with associate Ghislaine Maxwell and author Michael Wolff, according to documents obtained through a congressional subpoena of Epstein’s estate.

The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released three email exchanges from more than 23,000 documents provided by Epstein’s estate. The messages, dated between 2011 and 2019, include claims about Trump’s relationship with Epstein and alleged knowledge of the sex trafficking operation that led to federal charges against the late financier.

Email references to Trump and alleged victim

In an April 2, 2011 email to Maxwell, Epstein wrote that Trump was “the dog that hasn’t barked” and claimed an alleged victim “spent hours at my house with him.” The message came weeks after British newspapers published stories about Epstein and his powerful associates. Maxwell, now serving a 20-year prison sentence after her 2021 conviction on sex trafficking charges, responded by writing she had been “thinking about that.”

Democrats redacted the victim’s name to protect her identity. Republican members of the House Oversight Committee identified the person as Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s most prominent survivors who died by suicide in April. Giuffre never accused Trump of wrongdoing and wrote in her posthumous memoir “Nobody’s Girl” that Trump “couldn’t have been friendlier” when she first met him while working at Mar-a-Lago.

The emails also include exchanges between Epstein and Wolff, who wrote four books chronicling Trump’s presidency. In a January 2019 message, Epstein wrote about his relationship with Mar-a-Lago, stating Trump “said he asked me to resign, never a member ever.” The email continued with Epstein claiming Trump “knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop.”

A December 2015 email shows Wolff alerting Epstein that CNN planned to ask Trump about their relationship during an upcoming interview. Wolff advised Epstein to “let him hang himself,” suggesting Trump’s response could provide “valuable PR and political currency.”

Wolff told CNN Wednesday he couldn’t remember the specific context but was engaged in an in-depth conversation with Epstein about his relationship with Trump during that period. The author conducted nearly 100 hours of interviews with Epstein before his death.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed the emails as a partisan distraction. She stated the messages “prove absolutely nothing other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong” and accused Democrats of “selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative.”

Leavitt emphasized that Giuffre “repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever” and noted Trump “kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club decades ago for being a creep to his female employees.” Trump did not receive or send any of the released messages and has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing in connection with Epstein or Maxwell.

Trump posted on Truth Social calling the renewed focus on Epstein a “Democratic hoax” designed to distract from his accomplishments. He urged Republicans not to “fall into that trap” and to remain focused on reopening the government after the historic shutdown.

Ongoing calls for full file release

Representative Robert Garcia, ranking member on the Oversight Committee, said the emails “raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the President.” Democrats continue pressing for the full release of Justice Department files related to Epstein’s crimes.

Republicans on the committee responded by releasing an additional 20,000 pages of documents from Epstein’s estate Wednesday afternoon. They accused Democrats of “cherry-picking documents to generate click-bait” and claimed Democrats are “intentionally withholding records that name Democrat officials.”

The Department of Justice announced earlier this year it would not release its complete Epstein files, stating investigators found no evidence of a “client list” or credible evidence Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals. This decision sparked bipartisan criticism and renewed calls for transparency from both Republican and Democratic lawmakers.

Background on Trump-Epstein relationship

Trump and Epstein were friends for years and ran in the same social circles in New York and Florida from the late 1980s to the early 2000s. The president has said they had a falling out around 2004, more than a decade before Epstein was indicted on federal sex trafficking charges in 2019.

Epstein died by suicide in August 2019 while awaiting trial at a Manhattan correctional facility. He had previously reached a controversial plea deal with federal prosecutors in 2007, serving only 13 months of an 18-month sentence on state prostitution charges. His associate Maxwell was convicted in 2021 on five federal counts including sex trafficking a minor.

Does the selective release of partial documents serve the pursuit of truth and justice for victims, or does it create misleading narratives that obscure accountability?
