House Democrats release new Epstein emails referencing Trump  Rep. Adelita Grijalva Speaks out on Epstein Files & More After Being Sworn in 7 Weeks Late That email exchange -- which came just weeks after a British newspaper published a series of stories about Epstein, Maxwell and their powerful associates -- was one of three released by the Democrats from a batch of more than 23,000 documents the committee recently received from the Epstein Estate in response to a subpoena. The names of alleged victims and other personally identifying information were redacted from the messages. House Oversight Committee - PHOTO: House Democrats on Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2025, released three pieces of Jeffery Epstein-related email correspondence. The other newly released email exchanges are between Epstein and author Michael Wolff, who has written four books chronicling the Trump presidency. Wolff has said he spoke to Epstein at length about Trump during his reporting for the books. "I hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you--either on air or in scrum afterwards," Wolff wrote to Epstein in December 2015, six months after Trump had officially entered the race for the White House. The third message -- exchanged between Epstein and Wolff while Trump was well into his first presidential term in January 2019 -- appears to touch on the topic of whether Trump had banned Epstein from membership at Mar-a-Lago years earlier. "Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever," Epstein wrote, "Of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop" The full context of these email exchanges is not clear from the portions released by the committee Democrats. Wolff in a phone interview on Wednesday said of the 2015 exchange that he couldn't remember "the specific emails or the context, but I was in an in-depth conversation with Epstein at that time about his relationship with Donald Trump. So I think this reflects that." "I was trying at that time to get Epstein to talk about his relationship with Trump, and actually, he proved to be an enormously valuable source to me," Wolff said. "Part of the context of this is that I was pushing Epstein at that point to go public with what he knew about Trump." None of the documents previously made public as part of civil lawsuits or Maxwell's trial contain allegations of wrongdoing by Trump. Trump in July posted a lengthy social media post that in part blamed Democrats for creating a controversy about files related to Epstein, which he called a "scam" and "hoax." https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/house-democrats-release-new-epstein-emails-referencing-trump/story?id=127435983 Back |
