Bombshell Jeffrey Epstein emails recommend Donald Trump ‘knew in regards to the women’
The emails add to the questions about Trump’s friendship with Epstein and about any knowledge he may have had in what prosecutors call a yearslong effort by Epstein to exploit underage girls
A Jeffrey Epstein email has claimed that US President Donald Trump “spent hours” at his residence with a victim of sex trafficking. The paedophille stated in another message years later that Trump “knew about the girls.”
These emails, disclosed by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, fuel further queries regarding Trump’s association with Epstein and any awareness he might have had concerning what prosecutors describe as Epstein’s prolonged exploitation of underage girls.
The Republican president has persistently refuted any knowledge of Epstein’s alleged offences and asserted that their friendship ended years ago. In a 2011 email to Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s ex-girlfriend currently jailed for conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking, Epstein wrote: “I want you to realise that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump.”
He went on to say that Trump had “spent hours at my house” with an individual whose name is redacted in the emails but who House Democrats identified as a “victim”.
Epstein noted that Trump “has never once been mentioned”.
In a separate correspondence with journalist Michael Wolff, known for his extensive coverage of the president, Epstein wrote of Trump: “Of course he knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop.”
Trump, posting on his Truth Social platform, claimed Democrats “are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they’ll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they’ve done” regarding the government shutdown “and so many other subjects”.
“There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else, and any Republicans involved should be focused only on opening up our Country, and fixing the massive damage caused by the Democrats!” Trump posted.
White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt alleged that Democrats had “selectively leaked emails” to “create a fake narrative to smear President Trump”.
She stated that the unnamed individual mentioned in the emails is Virginia Giuffre, who had accused Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and other powerful figures of sexually exploiting her as a teenager and who died by suicide in April.
Andrew has denied Ms Giuffre’s allegations and claimed he could not remember meeting her.
Ms Leavitt declared that Ms Giuffre had “repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and ‘couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions”.
“The fact remains that President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club decades ago for being a creep to his female employees, including Giuffre,” the statement added. “These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments, and any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.”
Ms Giuffre went public following an initial investigation that resulted in just an 18-month Florida jail sentence for Epstein, who struck a secret agreement to dodge federal prosecution by pleading guilty to comparatively minor state-level charges of soliciting prostitution. He walked free in 2009.
In later legal action, Giuffre claimed she was working as a teenage spa attendant at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Palm Beach, Florida, resort, when Maxwell approached her in 2000.
Epstein took his own life in a New York jail cell in 2019 whilst awaiting trial on federal charges.
Legal representatives for British ex-socialite Maxwell have contended that she should never have faced trial or been found guilty for her part in recruiting teenage girls to be sexually abused by Epstein.
She is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence, though she was transferred from a low-security federal prison in Florida to a minimum-security prison camp in Texas following her interview in July with US Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
