The Trump administration again finds itself caught up in the Jeffrey Epstein saga after the House Oversight Committee released emails from the late convicted sex offender’s estate that mentioned President Donald Trump.
In one of the messages, the disgraced financier tells longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell that Trump spent “hours” at his house with one of Epstein’s victims and in another states that he “knew about the girls.”
The latest tranche of private emails and messages reveal that the commander-in-chief was a regular topic of discussion as Epstein frequently turned to close Trump ally Steve Bannon, journalist Michael Wolff and others for counsel as the net closed around him. He died in a New York jail cell in August 2019.
