Epstein emails released by Democrats say Trump ‘knew about the girls’ and spent time with a victim
November 12, 2025
Disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein wrote in a 2011 email Donald Trump had “spent hours” at Epstein’s house with a victim of sex trafficking and said in a separate message years later Trump “knew about the girls.” The emails made public by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday 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. The Republican president denies any knowledge of Epstein’s alleged crimes and says he ended their relationship years ago. Epstein died by suicide in a New York jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal charges.
