The Jeffrey Epstein case is back in the headlines — and this time, it’s President Donald Trump’s name making waves once again.

Newly released emails from the U.S. Congress show that the convicted sex offender mentioned the president several times in messages to Ghislaine Maxwell.

New emails released
On Wednesday, Democrats in Congress released a series of emails from Jeffrey Epstein, including one in which he wrote, “Of course he knew about the girls,” referring to Donald Trump in a 2019 message to author Michael Wolff.

The emails, dating from 2011 to 2019, were shared as part of the Oversight Committee’s ongoing investigation into Epstein and Maxwell.
In one 2011 exchange, Epstein wrote to Maxwell:

“I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trum

He added that an unnamed victim had “spent hours at my house with him, he has never once been mentioned.”

Maxwell replied simply:

“I have been thinking about that.”

The “unnamed victim”While the identity of the “unnamed victim” was initially withheld, the White House has since claimed the person is Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s most well-known accusers, who tragically died by suicide earlier this year at her home in Australia.

In a statement to media outlets, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavit said:

“The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump.

The ‘unnamed victim’ referenced in these emails is the late Virginia Giuffre, who repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and ‘couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions.”

Leavitt continued:

“These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments, and any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.”
