“These documents don’t prove anything. The only thing they prove is that Donald Trump did nothing wrong.” White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt spoke to reporters yesterday afternoon to comment on the publication by House Democrats of thousands of pages that appear to come from the legal entity that manages the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, the pedophile financier who died in prison in 2019. Shortly afterward, Trump himself also intervened: «Democrats are trying to revive the hoax about Jeffrey Epstein because they will do anything to divert attention from how poorly they handled the government shutdown, and many other topics. Democrats have cost our country $1.5 trillion because of their recent stupidity, by brutally shutting down the country,” the president wrote on Truth Social, and called on Republicans to focus on reopening the government, not on the Epstein case. “It is no coincidence that Democrats released these emails on the day the House reopened the government,” Leavitt added.
TEXT
The White House accused Democrats of “intentionally” releasing the emails, with the aim of embarrassing Trump. The relationship between the tycoon and Epstein is well known. But in the emails, the convicted sex offender claims that the president “spent hours” at his home with one of his victims. The name has been redacted but according to House Republicans, Epstein was referring to Virginia Giuffre. However, in the memoir of the woman – one of Epstein’s main victims, who committed suicide in 2025 – Trump is never mentioned. Giuffre instead spoke of violence suffered by “a prime minister” who allegedly beat and raped her. The woman recalled begging Epstein to intervene after the politician – who is not named in the book, but who many think may have been former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, who has always denied the allegations – forced her to defend her life. Epstein allegedly told him it was part of his job. Meanwhile, the House, which met just yesterday to vote on measures to end the government shutdown, could vote on a motion for full publication of documents gathered thanks to a request to Epstein by the House Oversight Committee, a commission made up of Republicans and Democrats. According to CNN, the White House has contacted several Republicans in the House to understand how they will behave during the vote: just yesterday the Secretary of Justice, Pam Bondi, and the director of the FBI, Kash Patel saw Lauren Boebert, one of the Republican deputies who along with Marjorie Taylor Greene tended to vote for full publication.
