"First came three emails made public by the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. Then, more than 20,000 unfiltered documents released by their Republican rivals on that same committee. On Wednesday, the millionaire and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein once again took center stage in Washington, as a new glimpse opened into his murky world through the papers that Congress has been receiving in waves from his family since August."
"In one of the emails to Wolff, from January 2019, Epstein — who died in August of that year in a high-security cell while awaiting trial — implied that Trump was aware of his behavior: Of course he knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop. The other exchange with Wolff, from 2015, dates back to the first campaign that took the real estate tycoon and reality TV star to the White House."
Congressional releases included a few highlighted emails and a large batch of more than 20,000 unfiltered documents that shed new light on Jeffrey Epstein's network. One email to Ghislaine Maxwell referenced a victim who spent hours at Epstein's house and referred to Trump as "the dog that hasn't barked." The White House later identified the woman as Virginia Giuffre, who died this year after a prior accident and had previously denied seeing Trump commit crimes. Emails to Michael Wolff suggested Epstein implied Trump knew about the girls and proposed using knowledge about Trump for blackmail. Republicans accused Democrats of selective disclosure and moved to release broader files.
