House Democrats Release Purported Trump Birthday Note to Epstein Amid Dispute

Congressional Democrats released a sexually suggestive birthday letter purportedly written by President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, which Trump has denied writing and claims is a fake. The letter, included in a birthday album compiled by Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell, features a typed conversation framed by a hand-drawn outline of a curvy woman, with Trump's signature visible, though the White House disputes the authenticity of both the writing and the signature. Democrats on the House Oversight Committee used the release of the letter to intensify calls for the full disclosure of all Epstein files, accusing Trump of lying and attempting to cover up the truth. Trump, who has filed a $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal for their initial report on the letter, dismisses the investigation as a political hoax orchestrated by Democrats. The controversy adds to ongoing scrutiny of Trump's ties to Epstein and Maxwell, amid growing public interest and demands for transparency about the extent of knowledge and involvement of politically connected individuals. The Justice Department has acknowledged that Trump's name appears multiple times in Epstein-related files but has resisted releasing further documents.
