\nIn a 2011 email to Maxwell, Epstein wrote that Mr. Trump \u201cspent hours at my house\u201d with one of Epstein\u2019s alleged victims, whose name was redacted. \u201cI want you to realize that that dog that hasn\u2019t barked is Trump. [Victim 1] spent hours at my house with him, he has never once been mentioned,\u201d Epstein wrote. Maxwell responded, \u201cI have been thinking about that\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another message, dated January 31, 2019, appears to show Epstein corresponding with Wolff about Mr. Trump and Mar-a-Lago. \u201cTrump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever. of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop,\u201d Epstein wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
A third exchange between Epstein and Wolff, dated December 15, 2015, discusses how then-candidate Trump might respond to media questions about his connection to Epstein. Wolff wrote, \u201cI hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you\u2014either on air or in scrum afterwards.\u201d Epstein replied, \u201cif we were able to craft an answer for him, what do you think it should be?\u201d Wolff responded, \u201cI think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn\u2019t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency… Of course, it is possible that, when asked, he\u2019ll say Jeffrey is a great guy and has gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in a Trump regime.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr. Trump announced his first presidential campaign in June 2015. Wolff later wrote Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House<\/em>, published in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Epstein and Mr. Trump were social acquaintances in New York and Florida from the late 1980s through the early 2000s. The President has said he cut ties with Epstein in 2004, long before Epstein\u2019s 2019 arrest on federal sex trafficking charges. Mr. Trump has not been accused of wrongdoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Epstein died by suicide in a Manhattan federal jail in 2019 while awaiting trial. Maxwell was later convicted of conspiring in Epstein\u2019s sex trafficking operation and is serving a 20-year sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rep. Robert Garcia of California, the top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, said in a statement that the Justice Department should release its full Epstein files \u201cimmediately.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He added, \u201cThe more Donald Trump tries to cover up the Epstein files, the more we uncover. These latest emails and correspondence raise glaring questions about what else the White House is hiding and the nature of the relationship between Epstein and the President.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The email release coincides with a broader congressional push for transparency in the Epstein case. Lawmakers are reviewing materials from Epstein\u2019s estate and have sought information from former officials, including past attorneys general and FBI directors. The committee has also questioned Alex Acosta, the former U.S. attorney who oversaw Epstein\u2019s controversial plea deal in Florida and later served as Labor Secretary under Mr. Trump. Acosta resigned in 2019 amid scrutiny over his handling of the Epstein case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The House returned to session Wednesday for the first time since mid-September, with Democrats expected to advance a discharge petition to compel the Justice Department to make public its Epstein investigation files. A vote on the measure is not expected until next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
