White House Condemns 'Democrat Hoax' as Further Jeffrey Epstein Photos Disclosed

Democratic lawmakers have published a fresh batch of what they labeled "alarming" images from the property of adjudicated sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, depicting notably Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and former British royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

The first release of 19 images—a portion of which have been seen before—plus another 70 issued later on Friday represent a small number of the approximately 100,000 images handed over to the House investigative panel, which is looking into the conduct and connections of Epstein.

The shamed investor died by apparent suicide in a New York detention cell in 2019 after being accused of sex-trafficking crimes.

Notable Figures in the Photos

Included in the high-profile individuals seen in the first release are celebrities including film director Woody Allen; Microsoft creator Bill Gates; and Richard Branson, creator of the Virgin conglomerate.

Donald Trump appears in three of the initial 19 images. In one, he is seen with six women, whose faces are blacked out.

White House Response

The White House responded to the release in a official comment, alleging Democrats of purposefully "hand-picking" the pictures for partisan aims and to "attempt to fabricate a false storyline."

"The Democrat hoax against President Trump has been repeatedly debunked," an administration official stated, maintaining that "this presidency has achieved more for Epstein's survivors than Democrats ever have by repeatedly calling for disclosure, releasing numerous documents of papers, and urging more inquiries into Epstein's Democrat friends."

Democratic Lawmaker Comment

The images were published devoid of explanation, but per a Democratic representative from California and ranking member of the oversight committee, they elicit additional doubts about Epstein's associations with the rich and powerful.

"Now is the occasion to end this White House cover-up and bring justice to the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and his well-connected allies," he declared in a release.

The publication of these documents occurs alongside the oversight committee continuing its probe into the Epstein matter.
