In a significant development, US lawmakers have released over 20,000 pages of documents from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender. These documents, which include email exchanges, shed light on Epstein’s connections with prominent figures, including President Donald Trump and Prince Andrew. The release, initiated by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, has sparked a political firestorm, with Republicans accusing Democrats of selectively leaking information to create a false narrative. Among the released emails is a 2011 exchange between Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, where Epstein mentions Trump, stating, ‘That dog that hasn’t barked is Trump.’ The victim’s name, later revealed to be Virginia Giuffre, was redacted in the initial release. Giuffre, a prominent Epstein accuser, died by suicide earlier this year. The White House has vehemently denied any wrongdoing by Trump, emphasizing that Giuffre had previously stated Trump was not involved in any misconduct. In another email exchange, author Michael Wolff discusses with Epstein the potential to ‘finish’ Trump through an interview. Wolff suggests that Epstein could use the opportunity to either harm or help Trump’s political career. Additionally, the documents mention Prince Andrew, who has consistently denied any involvement in Epstein’s illicit activities. The White House has dismissed the emails as a ‘bad-faith effort’ to distract from Trump’s accomplishments, asserting that the documents prove ‘absolutely nothing other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong.’
