Breaking: Epstein’s Estate Release Photos With More Public Figures
New photos from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate have just been publicly released, and some include President Donald Trump alongside other prominent figures. This is part of a larger trove of materials being reviewed and partially disclosed by congressional Democrats.
House Democrats on the House Oversight Committee published an initial set of 19 photos from Epstein’s estate. Images of Donald Trump in various social settings with Epstein and women whose faces have been redacted. Photos with other public figures such as Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Steve Bannon, Richard Branson, Woody Allen, Lawrence (Larry) Summers, and Prince Andrew. Some photos show social gatherings, jets, and even objects linked to Epstein’s life, but do not provide context or evidence of illegal conduct by those shown.
Trump appears in three of the released images. In one, he’s pictured with a group of women whose faces have been blurred or redacted. The photos are undated and lack explanatory captions, so it’s not clear when or where they were taken. No evidence of illegal activity by Trump has been shown in these images.
Trump responded by downplaying the pictures, saying he hadn’t seen them and suggesting Epstein “was all over Palm Beach” and knew many people. The White House accused Democrats of selectively releasing photos to push a political narrative. Democrats say the releases are part of efforts to encourage transparency ahead of a Justice Department deadline (Dec. 19) to publish more Epstein-related documents.
Important to know
These photos do not on their own prove misconduct by anyone shown. They depict social interactions and associations, and many figures named have denied wrongdoing. The release is ongoing — thousands more photos (over 95,000) are under review, and additional disclosures are expected.
