"A mysterious group called Secret Handshake installed a statue on the National Mall last month depicting Trump and Epstein holding hands and skipping. The Federal Park Police took it down because they claimed it did not comply with the permit. But the statue has now reappeared just days into a government shutdown that has sucked up all of the attention in Washington, D.C. DC News Now's Mariel Carbone spoke to several people who came to pose with or gawk at the statue:"
"MARIEL CARBONE: Well, Ann-Lysa, they're certainly out here trying to get people's attention. That's really the point of this. Now, this is not the first statue like this to pop up on the mall. In fact, the group behind it has popped up other ones like this going after the president, this specific one focusing in on that alleged relationship between the president and Epstein."
A group called Secret Handshake installed a 12-foot statue on the National Mall depicting President Donald Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein holding hands and skipping. Federal Park Police removed the statue citing permit noncompliance. The statue reappeared days into a government shutdown, drawing attention as visitors stopped to stare, pose and take photos. The statue includes a plaque referencing "friendship month" and references the alleged relationship between the president and Epstein. Onlookers reacted with surprise, amusement, and interest while reporters noted the group had placed similar provocative statues previously.
