Coverage of the Epstein-Trump emails revealed a familiar divide - Poynter
"On Wednesday, through a series of emails made public, we saw the most concrete evidence yet of the ties between Epstein and Trump. A 2011 email from Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell, his partner who was later convicted of sex trafficking, claimed that Trump had "spent hours at my house" with one of Epstein's victims, and that it "has never once been mentioned" by police. Epstein called Trump a "dog that hasn't barked.""
"The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they'll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they've done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects. Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap. The Democrats cost our Country $1.5 Trillion Dollars with their recent antics of viciously closing our Country, while at the same time putting many at risk - and they should pay a fair price."
Newly released emails include assertions linking Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein and one of Epstein's victims. A 2011 message from Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell claimed Trump "spent hours at my house" with an alleged victim, said the matter "has never once been mentioned" by police, and called Trump a "dog that hasn't barked." A 2019 email to Michael Wolff said Trump "knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop." Three emails were released by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. The releases prompted questions about what Trump may have known. Trump denied knowledge on Truth Social.
